Can someone give me the mysqladmin line to log debugging activity: tried mysqladmin -debug /var/log/mylog to no avail. Also, how do you start mysql with logging on, not update, just to log connections as they occur so I can identify problems. I can log in such as mysql -u ^&( as localhost), but can't figure out where the mysql.server script gets called. It's not in the init.d directory, but mysql is available once my machine is booted. I need to be able to log mysql activity to figure out where I'm screwing up with my php scripts, i think? thanx --------------------------------------------------------------------- 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?
