Hello.
Usually config file means "my.cnf" (my.ini on Windows). >As I don't have the [mysqld-4.0] in the my.cnf just [mysqld] See: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/Option_files.html >And how do I know that it is actually running? Start by checking whether there is a process named mysqld running on your server host. (Use "ps xa | grep mysqld" on Linux or the Task Manager on Windows.) If there is no such process, you should start the server. >Thanks I see the switch now. Does the config file mean the My.cnf file or >is there another one. > >As I don't have the [mysqld-4.0] in the my.cnf just [mysqld] > >And how do I know that it is actually running? >I also am not clear on the new versus --new command could someone explain >that. > >Some of the 4.1 behaviors can be tested in 4.0 before performing a full >upgrade to 4.1.
