Hi all, I've had a mysql db server running fine for a few months now, and all of a sudden, I'm having trouble with it.
when starting the service, the error log contains the following --------8<--------8<--------8<--------8<--------8< 021119 09:58:56 mysqld started /usr/sbin/mysqld: Can't read dir of '/root/tmp/' (Errcode: 13) 021119 9:58:58 bdb: malloc: Cannot allocate memory: 10485760 021119 9:58:58 Can't init databases 021119 09:58:58 mysqld ended --------8<--------8<--------8<--------8<--------8< I have no idea why it it looking in root/tmp for anything any ideas on where to start??
