I use a VMware for LAMP development work. I just looked in my /var/lib/mysql dir and there are 972 of these vmware-bin.000001 ... vmware-bin.000972 files! Yipes!
Do I need them? Can I delete them? How do I prevent them from being created all the time? Can't they all just go into one vmware-bin file (as in append, like a .log file does)? I saw this post, but it doesn't answer any questions: http://forums.mysql.com/read.php?28,74385,74385 Googling for 'mysql bin.000001' seems to indicate these are related to replication -- I'm not using replication. ÐÆ5ÏÐ P.S. I found this link: http://miniprep.caltech.edu/~remote/blog/?p=99 Which says to run "reset master;" -- which did get rid of them for now, but my questions above are still valid. -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
