The assertion in the manual referred to windows I think is not correct. In my XP version I found the log file as in Unix ie \mysql\data\hostname.err instead \mysql\data\mysql.err as in previous version. Note in my.ini file there is nothing about log-error option . Which is the correct interpretation ?
Beginning with MySQL 4.0.10 you can specify where mysqld stores the error log file with the option --log-error[=filename]. If no file name is given mysqld will use mysql-data-dir/'hostname'.err on Unix and `\mysql\data\mysql.err' on windows --------------------------------------------------------- Massimo Petrini c/o Omt spa Via Ferrero 67/a 10090 Cascine Vica (TO) Tel. +39 011 9505334 Fax +39 011 9575474 E-mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- 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?
