Hi,
Via the link on Sun RAQ550 helpdesk (http://cobalt-knowledge.sun.com/cgi-bin/kbase.cfg/php/enduser/std_adp.php?p_sid=9TneYLmg&p_lva=&p_refno=020723-000005&p_created=1027454398&p_sp=cF9ncmlkc29ydD0mcF9yb3dfY250PTEyJnBfc2VhcmNoX3RleHQ9bXlzcWwmcF9zZWFyY2hfdHlwZT0zJnBfcHJvZF9sdmwxPX5hbnl_JnBfcHJvZF9sdmwyPX5hbnl_JnBfY2F0X2x2bDE9f mFueX4mcF9jYXRfbHZsMj1_YW55fiZwX3NvcnRfYnk9ZGZsdCZwX3BhZ2U9MQ**&p_li) I enabled MySQL on the RAQ550.

Is MySQL now automatically enabled for ALL virtual sites so every virtual site can make a MySQL-connection, or do I have to do some action to give MySQL to a certain hosted site on the RAQ550?

Thanks for your answers!

Enabling MySQL just means the mysqld daemon starts when the server does. You still need to manually set up databases, users, etc. Might want to check out phpMyAdmin as an easier web-based tool if you're not comfortable with command-line SQL stuff...

Hi,

I wanted to install PhPMyAdmin on the RAQ550 today so I started looking for it. I found the following link:
http://www.edison.ca/cobalt/
phpMyAdmin233

Is this what I need to setup MySQL-databases?

Can virtual sites now setup their own MySQL-database?

Thanks for the information!

phpMyAdmin is a web-based alternative to using the command line. You can use it to create databases and users, set permissions, etc.

There is a way to set up phpMyAdmin so that individual sites can create their own databases and administer them, with only a single copy of phpMyAdmin installed. I haven't used the PKG you mentioned, so I don't know how they set up their install. Check with them for specifics - I'm guessing they have a HOWTO or a forum or something...
