Why is it that whenever I go to build MySQL out of the ports it only builds the client, no matter what I do.

Even a



env FLAVORS="max" make all install



just builds the mysql client. It's really not that big of a deal I can just ftp the precompiled binary down but I've got to be missing something here. Anyone else having this trouble? Better, anyone else have the answer?

I never seem to have luck with mysql in ports, but in my case its usually broken and wont compile. I usually end up installing the pkg as well. :roll:

I second that...I got mysql$VER-server to compile ONCE. After that, I get cc errors and it fails completely.

I.. uh.. third that. I'm running a MySQL box for a Uni assignment, and found I had to install from the packages.

Here's hoping the packages aren't trojaned ;)

Just saw this in Misc tonite:


Since you've already compiled the port, just:
pkg_add /usr/ports/packages/i386/All/mysql-server-3.23.49.tgz

You can also do: `env SUBPACKAGE=-server PACKAGING=-server make install`.
(See bsd.port.mk(5))
