I have installed mysql from the ports collection on FreeBSD and it was working fine.
I would like to move the /tmp/mysql.sock file ( or is it safe to leave it there?) so I
Created a my.cnf file with the following options
[mysqld]
port=3306
socket=/usr/local/mysql/mysql.sock
I take down the mysql server and restart but it refuses to work. It is still looking
in the /tmp directory
What am I doing wrong? Could this be a permission thing on the sock file?
What permissions does this file need?
Cheers
