Re: Temp file issues on Ubuntu 9.10

[Sebastiaan van Erk]

Hi,

$ ls -ld /tmp/mysql
drwxr-xr-x 2 mysql mysql 4096 2009-11-08 10:14 /tmp/mysql

$ ls -ld /tmpfs/mysql
drwxr-xr-x 2 mysql mysql 40 2009-11-08 10:12 /tmpfs/mysql

So I don't see the difference....

Has anyone encountered similar problems, or know what's going on here?

Best regards,
Sebastiaan

mkdir /tmpfs
mount -t tmpfs -o size=1g tmpfs /tmpfs
mkdir /tmpfs/mysql
chown mysql:mysql
Probably should be:
chown -R mysql:mysql  /tmpfs/mysql

john

This might just be a typo, but the chown statement you gave us didn't have a target and so would not have affected the relevant directories:

Hi,

Thanks, yes that's a typo indeed, sorry I didn't catch it before sending the mail. The ls output was copy-pasted from a terminal and there the ownerships are correct.
