Hi -

I just upgraded a development server from 3.23.53a to 4.0.4 and have not since been able to start MySQL as root using the init script included in the dist (or 'mysqld_safe --user=mysql' either). I get an immediate seg fault and exit. Starting the server as user 'mysql' works fine but then trying to connect to the server over TCP/IP causes the server to seg fault and restart itself. Has anyone seen this before?

The box is a SMP Red Hat 7.2 machine with all installed software at the latest redhat released versions. The MySQL distribution is built from the official source RPM without any modifications to the spec file.

I am also right now in the process of building a version with debugging enabled but figured I would shoot off this mail while I watch it compile in case someone recognizes the symptoms all too well. :)

Thanks for any and all help!

This is a known RedHat issue with a broken GLIBC they've been sending out via up2date (check the archives for this mailing list for the last two weeks...)

Your best bet (always) is to use the binary RPMs built by MySQL AB. You will have much better getting the 4.0.4 RPMs built by MySQL AB working on Linux than trying to do it yourself.
