yeah, there's a whole lot wrong with that. 1. you're using the wrong versions of mysql, the freebsd sparc64 version wont work on solaris, perhaps you should get the solaris package? hrm, just a thought...
and 2, it actually has to be installed before you try to run it, best option is to read the INSTALL-BINARY docs that come with the solaris version. trying to get a freebsd binary working on solaris is in for a world of pain tho.
