Help please :)

Hi,

I'm trying to run mysql 3.23 on suse linux.

I tried to upgrade using an rpm, but that didn't work.

I've moved what files I can find from the old 3.22 install to an 'old'
directory ( with no execute permissions )

I've reinstalled from a binary in a user dir, and followed the install
instructions for this.

Moved & renamed a conf file from the support files dir and put it in the
data dir.

OK so all went fine at the install time, everything ran fine.

however today, a week later, it went down :(

I couldn't restart it for ages, with no error messages.

I have just finally managed to restart it, it worked for a few mins (tomcat
connected fine) then
I got the following output for a Segmentation Fault.

./bin/safe_mysqld: line 273: 16918 Segmentation fault      $NOHUP_NICENESS
$ledir/$MYSQLD $defaults --basedir=$MY_BASEDIR_VERSION --datadir=$DATADIR
$USER_OPTION --pid-file=$pid_file --skip-locking >>$err_log 2>&1
011202 20:03:47  mysqld ended

now I just get the same as before
/home/webadmin/mysql > ./bin/safe_mysqld --user=mysql
Starting mysqld daemon with databases from /home/webadmin/mysql/data
011202 20:15:26  mysqld ended

Any help or guesses as to what it could be from experienced installers /
unix gurus really would be very much
appreciated...I'm getting very frustrated with this :(

Thanks v. much in advance,

Ian
