tell me as soon as possible
thanks..

path to mysql may not be set in PATH variable.

is it a new install? has it run before? is everything configured properly? have you worked through the guide? what is inside the logfile of the smf facility?

which didn't explain why the db is in maintenance... only why the client is not found.

i went through the below link for installation

when i use
/usr/sfw/sbin/mysqld stop
its closing properly
and the log file shows its a normal shutdown..

check the output of "svcs -xv" for the proper logfile...
