Well, what does the log say? You did copy the mysql database into the new directory?

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!!
