Mac OS X: the name of the startup script itself must match the
name of the subdirectory it's located in. Changed MySQL->MySQLCOM
in the Do-pkg script and renamed the file in BK. (Thanks to Bryan
McCormack for reporting this)
/Library/StartupItems/MySQL to /Library/StartupItems/MySQLCOM
to avoid a name space collision with the MySQL Startup Item shipped
with Mac OS X Server, updated the MySQLStartupItem PKG version
number to reflect the change.
- postinstall of the Mac OS X PKG failed as a parameter for
mysql_install_db was changed for MySQL 4.1
- postinstall of the Server RPM failed as mysql_create_system_tables was
missing from the file list
startup item: MySQL (the startup script), StartupItem.Description.plist,
StartupItem.Info.plist (PKGMaker control files), StartupItem.postinstall
(post-installation script for the Startup Item package)
- modified support-files/MacOSX/Makefile.am to include the newly added files
in the source distribution
the installation to make sure the privilege tables are being
installed even if the DNS configuration is broken, which seems
to be quite common (reverse lookups to "hostname" fail).
This should resolve the problem many Mac OS users experience
("Fatal error: Can't open privilege tables: Table 'mysql.host' doesn't
exist") when they try to start MySQL after installing the PKG.
distribution
- added Bootstrap, logger.pm and Do-pkg to Build-tools:
Bootstrap is used to build the source distribution for the binary builds
logger.pm includes some helper functions
Do-pkg converts a binary distribution into a Mac OS X PKG (still needs
some polishing)
