Has anyone been able to use a named pipe for their general query log (or any of the other logfiles for that matter)?
I tried the following as user mysql: rm /var/lib/mysql/myhost.log mkfifo -m 0660 /var/lib/mysql/myhost.log but the mysql server would not start. I think it would be very useful to be able to use a FIFO for this so I can use the log for debugging/info without having to create a log rotation script. I am running 5.0.2-alpha-standard on linux on i386. Thanks. F -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
