Hi. Anyone know the trick to successfully using a different directory for database files?
I've tried changing my.cnf and also using the command line option. When I run mysqld_safe it says it's using the new directory but then writes "mysqld ended" and quits. Mysql never comes up. I changed owner and group of the new directory and files to be mysql. What can be going wrong? It just doesn't seem to work! Thanks!! --------------------------------------------------------------------- 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?
