This time I am using 4.0.13-max (tar format from www.mysql.com) on Redhat 9.
I have an understanding question why would the command SHOW VRAIABLES give me once the real output and once the symlink ouput for directory names ?
Sample (datadir and basedir) :
mysql> SHOW VARIABLES LIKE '%dir%'; +----------------------------+--------------------------------------------+ | Variable_name | Value | +----------------------------+--------------------------------------------+ | basedir | /usr/local/mysql-max-4.0.13-pc-linux-i686/ | | bdb_logdir | | | bdb_tmpdir | /tmp/ | | datadir | /usr/local/mysql/data/ | | innodb_data_home_dir | | | innodb_log_arch_dir | ./ | | innodb_log_group_home_dir | ./ | | innodb_max_dirty_pages_pct | 90 | | tmpdir | /tmp/ | +----------------------------+--------------------------------------------+ 9 rows in set (0.04 sec)
Best regards
