I am trying to build mariadb from source on a linux system. I used this procedure: mkdir build cd build cmake -DTOKUDB_OK=0 .. make make test The build goes fine, but the output of make test gives: 74% tests passed, 21 tests failed out of 81 Total Test time (real) = 42.80 sec The following tests FAILED: 23 - bulk1 (Failed) 24 - performance (Failed) 25 - basic-t (Failed) 26 - fetch (Failed) 27 - charset (Failed) 28 - logs (Failed) 29 - cursor (Failed) 30 - errors (Failed) 31 - view (Failed) 32 - ps (Failed) 33 - ps_bugs (Failed) 34 - sp (Failed) 35 - result (Failed) 36 - connection (Failed) 37 - misc (Failed) 38 - ps_new (Failed) 39 - sqlite3 (Failed) 40 - thread (Failed) 41 - features-10_2 (Failed) 42 - dyncol (Failed) 43 - async (Failed) Errors while running CTest All the failing tests have messages in the log like: # Couldn't establish connection to server (null). Error (2002): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2) Bail out! Can't connect to a server. Aborting.... All the above tests appear to be new to version 10.2. I used the asme build procedure for version 10.1.23 and all tests pass, but none of the above tests show up on the earlier version either. What am I missing? If the tests need a server running, shouldn't the tests start the server? -- Bruce
