We've got mysql 3.23 installed on a redhat system via the rpm's that come with RedHat 8.0. I'd like to change the default data directory so something other than /var/lib/mysql. I know this is supposed to be possible with a start switch of --datadir=/path/to/data but it doesn't seem to work.
The startup of mysql uses the /etc/init.d/mysqld script so I suppose I'll need to change something in that and add the switch, I just can't seem to figure out where. Any suggestions?
