The var dir is usually where the databases and logs go. At least, from the sources I've compiled, thats where it always gets stored.

Re: start up problem
Hey Cindy, Usually you can get a better idea of the real problem by looking in the hostname.err (where hostname is the hostname of your machine) file in whatever directory you are storing your logs in. Is there any info in that file that you can post? You can check to make sure another mysql.sock doesn't exist in /tmp already ( Maybe one got created by the mysql_att user, and the mysql user can't overwrite it. ). That or you may want to shut down the server, clear out any mysql.sock files in /tmp and restart the mysql server. -- sh On Mon, 2002-04-29 at 11:28, Cindy wrote: Cindy writes: OK, it seems like every time I install mysql, I run smack dab into some type of access problem -- if it isn't a password hangup, it's a mysql.sock problem or (at the moment) a refusal to allow me to create databases.
