Hello
I am having difficulties: I am working on Mac OSX 10.2.8 with mysql 4. I needed to change the data directory of MySQL from its original place (where the application have to be and not the databases because there is not enought room) to an other volume of my computer. I made a symlink from data to data in the other volume and not anymore as it was to var in the same volume before. I copied
If the original data directory was named "var", then the symlink also should be named "var", even if it now points to a directory named "data".
all files and directories of var in this new directory -data-. I changed with mysql mysql all this file and directories (group and owner). And I made : create database X; ERROR 1006: Can't create database 'X'. (errno: 13)
I hope what I explain is clear!
What did I forget ? Do I have to put also var in this new other directory? Do I have to reinstall completly MySQL because I corrupted to much this application?
I am lost.
Could anyone help me?
Thanks in advance
LN
