 Hello,

 In mysql's config file my.cnf, are the variable names with _ and - the
 same?
 for example,

 log_error = ...
 log-error = ...

 Thanks.

Re: about the config file

2011-08-02 Thread Andrew Moore
Hey!

I asked this one a long time ago. They are interchangeable in most cases. I
can recall there was one or two options (pid-file and log-error...I think?!)
that were funky with the '_' but I can't be sure that's still an issue.

Try them out and don't worry too much about the aesthetics of the file.

correct,  dash (“-”) and underscore (“_”) may be used interchangeably.
