mysql hang / not responding
by however from LinuxQuestions.org on (#6Q2F5)
Hello everyone,
i have been trying to configure MySQL on Slackware current that I just installed successfully on an Asus VivoBook E210M.
I have, in the past, configured MySQL on Slackware with some minor issues and/or successfully but I had never experienced a completely unresponsive MySQL.
I have been following the steps, literally, on https://docs.slackware.com/howtos:da...l_on_slackware but it seems that, no matter what I do MySQL is "dead" on what it seems to be a fully functional Slackware system.
The only error message i get is:
Code:bash-5.2# mysql_install_db --user=mysql
Installing MariaDB/MySQL system tables in '/var/lib/mysql' ...
2024-08-18 21:39:30 0 [ERROR] mariadbd: Can't lock aria control file '/var/lib/mysql/aria_log_control' for exclusive use, error: 11. Will retry for 30 secondsFrom there on, 'dead'!
Code:bash-5.2$ /usr/bin/mysql_secure_installation

In order to log into MariaDB to secure it, we'll need the current
password for the root user. If you've just installed MariaDB, and
haven't set the root password yet, you should just press enter here.
Enter current password for root (enter for none):I went out for about 2hrs and when I returned the konsole was still stuck on that.
I tried the manual configuration:
Code:bash-5.2# mysqladmin -u root password 'new-password-here'and
Code:bash-5.2$ mysql -vsame thing!
Does anyone have any ideas/suggestions?
Thanks in advance.
