Can't tell exactly since you don't say what distro of Linux you're using, or what version of MySQL, but it looks like you're missing part of your installation, or the install was done wrong. How did you install MySQL? That file is part of mysql-server on some distros, and mysql-common on others. If you installed from a package through yum or apt-get, it's easier to fix.
Thank U Thank you for ur immediate reply...lol....I have solved that issue Thanks anyway Regards -- Ali
No reason to be sarcastic...I just joined here and saw your open thread, and tried to help you. And you respond by making a childish, sarcastic comment. If you solved it, why don't you post the solution, so everyone can benefit? Or is that too much to ask of a little snot like you?
