从源代码分发版构建MySQL

环境及MySQL版本：

   ubuntu12.04

   MySQL5.5.28

  学期初曾尝试着在完全没有linux基础的情况下安装Mysql的源代码，结果总以失败而告终。昨晚第一次安装成功后，都不知道是什么感觉了。下面记录下我的安装过程。

  首先，从官网下载MySQL的tar. gz压缩文件后解压，并在解压后的文件中找到INSTALL-SOURCE文件，打开，找到有关在linux下安装的shell命令。然后按照上面的指示，结合自己对linux的了解来安装，其过程如下：

  shell>sudo mv mysql-5.5.28 /usr/local                    #首先将下载的文件剪切到/usr/local目录（我下载的文件在

                                                                                  #主文件夹中），这步可选。 因为/usr/local需root权限才能

                                                                                  #访问，所以得加 上sudo

                                                                                 

  shell>sudo groupadd mysql

  shell>sudo useradd -r -g mysql mysql

  shell>sudo cd /usr/local/mysql-5.5.28

  shell>cmake .

  shell>make

  shell>sudo make install

  shell>sudo scripts/mysql_install_db --user=mysql

  shell>sudo chown -R root .

  shell>sudo chown -R mysql data

  # Next command is optional

  shell>sudo cp support-files/my-medium.cnf /etc/my.cnf

  shell>sudo bin/mysqld_safe --user=mysql &

  # Next command is optional

  shell> sudo cp support-files/mysql.server /etc/init.d/mysql.server

 

因为没有安装libncurses5-dev，cmake时出错，如下：

CMake Error at cmake/readline.cmake:83 (MESSAGE):
  Curses library not found.  Please install appropriate package,

      remove CMakeCache.txt and rerun cmake.On Debian/Ubuntu, package name is libncurses5-dev, on Redhat and derivates it is ncurses-devel.

解决方法：apt-get install libncurses5-dev

                  rm rm CMakeCache.txt

           然后 再次cmake
