Sprint: 2017-21, 2017-22

 Description   

The preparing documentation for both 1.0 and 1.1.0 beta mention to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH as follows:

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/guest/mariadb/columnstore/lib:/home/guest/mariadb/columnstore/mysql/lib/mysql

However this is incorrect as it should also have mysql/lib in there as this contains mariadblibs.

Reporting beta user found that after server reboot mcsadmin would not start due to:
error while loading shared libraries: libmariadb.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Note that the install correctly sets LD_LIBRARY_PATH in .bashrc, in this case the user thought that since we recommend setting PATH as well in the preparing guide that this should be corrected. We should also clarify that. I think that using path or aliases is fine but the advantage of the aliases is that mcsmysql includes the custom cs my.cnf which allows socket connections locally which is helpful.
