While we're on the subject of files that MySQL is generating, anyone out
there
got an idea what "log.0000000001", "log.0000000002", etc in the data
directory
are? Better still how-can/can-I stop them being produced?
I know they're not the binary log files since they're being sent elsewhere.
(extract from my.cnf
#log = /home/mysql/tay-log
#log-update = /var/mysql/updates
log-bin = /var/mysql/binary/bin
)
Sorry if this is another RTFM . . . .
