There is a solution to this particular problem in the development forum. Basically, you must install an up to date copy of MySQL and copy the data over from the installation that comes with the docserver.

Hi,
I am trying to run the "cvwds.boot" script
on Redhat 9 box.
The safe_mysqld script gives a segment fault.
Any ideas, what am i doing worng ?
Here's the log.
[root@somebox mysql]# ./bin/safe_mysqld
Starting mysqld daemon with databases from /var/lib/mysql
+ test 0 -eq 0
+ trap '' 1
+ exec nohup /opt/CVWdocserver40/mysql/bin/mysqld --basedir=/opt/CVWdocserver40/mysql --datadir=/var/lib/mysql --user=root --pid-file=/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.pid --skip-locking
./bin/safe_mysqld: line 198: 9202 Segmentation fault ( trap "" 1; exec $NOHUP_NICENESS $ledir/mysqld $defaults --basedir=$MY_BASEDIR_VERSION --datadir=$DATADIR --user=$user --pid-file=$pid_file --skip-locking >>$err_log 2>&1 )
+ test '!' -f /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.pid
+ break
There are two empty directories in my "/var/lib/mysql" i.e. mysql and test. I am wondering why is the script trying to access that folder.
Regards
Umesh
