Hi, I have an odd problem with mysqld_multi. I am trying to set up several MySQL servers on my new development server, for testing purposes.
I currenty have only one, 4.0.9, just want to get this one going first. However, when I try to start mysqld_multi, it seems it does not recognise the mysqld=xxx option in the [mysqld40009] section of my my.cnf file. It simply complains it can't find a mysqld option! [bin] ./mysqld_multi --no-log start 40009 MySQL 4.0.9 is installed in: /usr/local/mysql/40009 Here is /etc/my.cnf: [mysqld40009] datadir=/usr/local/mysql/40009/data socket=/usr/local/mysql/40009/mysql.sock user=mysql basedir=/usr/local/mysql/40009 port=3306 log=log log-bin=binlog mysqld=/usr/local/mysql/40009/bin/mysqld_safe [mysqld_multi] I can only get it to work when the mysqld= part is in a [mysqld_multi] section, or on the command line. This is of course pointless, as I want each server to run its own version. My mysqld_multi is version 2.5, which according to the docs should be able to do this. This does work for example: [bin]./mysqld_multi --no-log --mysqld=/usr/bin/mysql/40009/bin/mysqld_safe - -mysqladmin=/usr/bin/mysql/40009/bin/mysqladmin start 40009 Any ideas?
