Just a guess but do you any space between the key and value? innodb_data_home_dir = /var/data/mysql

I'm trying to get MySQL 4.0.15 running on a new SuSE linux PC. This is my first attempt installing on SuSE after setting up a large number of Red Hat machines without problem. Right now, however, I'm continually receiving errors that I just don't understand where they are coming from. I've even copied the .cnf file from my primary MySQL server (which has been running for months) and get the errors when it's trying to fire up. Errors received are: 040211 17:31:37 mysqld started /usr/sbin/mysqld: ERROR: unknown variable 'innodb_data_home_dir=/var/data/mysql/' 040211 17:31:37 mysqld ended To get started, I copied the my-large.cnf to /etc as my.cnf and have edited the file to reflect the directories I'm using to store data and logs. The file I am using is as follows: (See attachment) I just don't get this one. All of the syntax seems okay, and I'm actually using the file on a Red Hat 9.0 machine. Thanks!
