How to configure multiple MySQL instances on a single machine? There are a lot of information on the web, but they are not very useful.
Instead of generic information that can only be understood by a mind with years of MySQL administrative experience, I am looking for a tutorial that guides me from begin to end. I would appreciate answers or pointers that are self-sufficient, i.e., don’t require a lot of knowledge from the user’s part, instead of obscure references.
OK, this question should be closed as not-programming-related, this is really a question for the upcoming ‘sister’ site but I’m going to try and answer it anyway. Now I’ve never used MySQL and someone can probably do a better answer.
Lets start with a google search
(5 mins later… decided to take the plunge after only skim reading a couple of results)
20 mins, done.
Now we have step by step instructions for running multiple MySQL instances on a single machine, which will probably turn up as the first result in google next time anyone searches for it 😉
