I am tring to install LAMP on fedora core 7 i have installed mysql ( mysql-5.0.45 )

./configure --prefix=/usr/local/mysql --localstatedir=/usr/local/mysql/data --disable-maintainer-mode --with-mysqld-user=mysql --enable-large-files-without-debug

make && make install

and every thing went fine

inorder to tell the system where ro find the dynamic libraries i added echo "/usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql" >> /etc/ld.so.conf

when i ran the following command it gave me the this error

can some one help me out why i am getting this Premission denied error

I kinda of solved this problem ( i think ) by diabling selinux using the command setenforce 0

i then did a #ldconf

didnt get any error !! :-)

but is there a workaround for this incase i do not want to disable selinux ??
