Re: table cache value error in my.cnf file
Joey, you've over allocated the cache. MySQL is telling you that it has corrected the allocation. Check out the docs for the meaning behind the numbers.

Not finding my.cnf file
Dear all, I install mysql in CentOS -5.4 through 2 commands : yum install mysql-server yum install mysql-client And I can see directories created in /var/lib/mysql directory. But now i want to change it to my /hdd1-1 diretcory and alse set logging directories. So , I search my.cnf file as: [root@ws-test ~]# find / -name my.cnf [root@ws-test ~]# Now how could I solve this issue from where mysql picks its configuration or it go for its default.

Re: Not finding my.cnf file
You need to provide a my.cnf for your server. There are some sample files included with the server binaries that you can start with. These won't be tailored for your application/server so will need to be changed as per your requirements. Note that several of the options are static values so will require a MySQL restart before they will work.

Please look in /etc/my.cnf If not found create one. Of cause, MySQL can start and run without a 'my.cnf' file that’s why you couldn't find one.

RE: cannot find my.cnf file
Did you remove the my.cnf file and then run /etc/init.d/mysql stop? The my.cnf probably had non-default paths for the pid file, so if you remove the config file, now the startup script is looking in the wrong location.

RE: cannot find my.cnf file
Also note that mysql doesn't need a my.cnf file and will happily run with default values. It's possible that there is none and you'll have to create it. To see where your mysqld is configured to check for the config file do: mysql --verbose --help | grep -C3 my.cnf This will give you a list of paths it checks in order.

Re: my.cnf file
I just looked into this myself since today was the first time I had to do anything with the configuration. The answer is, in the default installation, no conf file is created. (In my case, I mean from instllating from source rather than from binary.) So what you do is look for the unused-but-available my-example.cnf and then save it to my.cnf in the appropriate location. My locations are: /usr/share/mysql/my-example.cnf /var/lib/mysql/my.cnf In my case the cnf applies on a per-server basis (allowing multiple db servers on the one host, each with its own cnf file) rather than applying to everything mysql.

Re: my.cnf file
I've done that, too... but that's because MySQL's doc search engine is interpreting the . as something special. If you search for other things relating to that, you'll actually find an index saying my.cnf configuration options or syntax.. something along those lines. Weird stuff.

can't find my my.cnf file -- not there by default?
I'm still testing out MySQL and I'm trying to find the my.cnf file referred to at http://www.mysql.com/doc/O/p/Option_files.html The page says to look in: /etc/my.cnf DATADIR/my.cnf defaults-extra-file (The file specified with --defaults-extra-file=# ) ~/.my.cnf but none of these files seem to exist on my machine. (I assume my DATADIR is /var/lib/mysql/, since it contains subdirectories and subfiles like ./var/lib/mysql/menagerie ./var/lib/mysql/menagerie/pet.frm ./var/lib/mysql/menagerie/pet.MYI ./var/lib/mysql/menagerie/pet.MYD which I assume represent the data stored in the menagerie database that I created while going through the MySQL tutorial.) I searched the machine for files with mysql in the path and .cnf in the name (I had to look up how to do that, to give you an idea of my level of experience with UNIX) but found only: ./usr/doc/MySQL-3.23.36/my-huge.cnf ./usr/doc/MySQL-3.23.36/my-large.cnf ./usr/doc/MySQL-3.23.36/my-medium.cnf ./usr/doc/MySQL-3.23.36/my-small.cnf ./usr/share/mysql/my-huge.cnf ./usr/share/mysql/my-large.cnf ./usr/share/mysql/my-medium.cnf ./usr/share/mysql/my-small.cnf which are sample files. MySQL came pre-installed on that machine. Is it possible (or, indeed, normal) that the MySQL installation process didn't create a my.cnf file? (In that case I'd recommending adding that info to http://www.mysql.com/doc/O/p/Option_files.html , if the author of those pages is on the list. I'll submit a comment there anyway based on what the list replies.) -Bennett [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.peacefire.org (425) 649 9024 - Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe, e-mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] Trouble unsubscribing?

Performance and the my.cnf file
Hi, I have several problems to do with tuning mysql to run on a Sun E450. Firstly, I cannot get the mysql to read the my.cnf file. If it is installed in the data directory, mysql boots OK but ignores it, while if I copy it into the /etc directory I get the following error Starting mysqld daemon with databases from /home1/mysql/data mysqld daemon ended and mysql does not start up Also, how do you know what the current values of the variables are? Does the command mysqladmin variables outputs the global variables or the current settings of those variables and does the -O option eg mysqld -O key_buffer=32m change the variables on the fly or does the mysql process have to be restarted? Thanks for any help. I am presently struggling to get reasonable performance from our server.
