Installing MySQL on Open Solaris
I've been having a play around with MySQL on windows, and I thought why not try to get it up and running on OpenSolaris. This tutorial is the result.
MySQL Communitity edition is freely downloadable and can be used for any purpose.
I'm not going to write a tutorial on how to use MySQL with Java CAPS, a colleage of mine, Michael Czapski has already written an excellent one which can be found here.

The easiest of all ways of installing MySQL on OpenSolaris is:
%pfexec pkg install SUNWmysql5
MySQL is already fully integrated into OpenSolaris (including smf support and, in 2009.06, dtrace probes).
