I'm running 3.23.43 on Windows 98. I've done the default binary installation, which created the mysql and test databases in c:\mysql\data, and I've added the menagerie and other sample databases to it. I would like to leave that structure in place but create another database somewhere else. I can't find a way to recreate the mysql\data\mysql tables at the new location, without which mysqld will not run, regardless of any command line options or my.cnf settings. I could save the current c:\mysql\data directory structure and re-run the installation, then copy mysql\data\mysql to the new location, but that seems rather bad form. I can't simply copy the mysql table db because it contains irrelevant data. There should be a way to create a new db directory structure.
Any help, please. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
