Hi,

I'm installed the amp package on b134 and got it working, now I'm trying to 
move the mysql data directory to my data drive. I added the line "datadir = 
/tank/server/mysql/data" to my.cnf file but it doesn't work. So to debug I 
tried:


# ps -fu mysql
     UID   PID  PPID   C    STIME TTY         TIME CMD
   mysql  1159     1   0 00:13:54 ?           0:00 /bin/sh 
/usr/mysql/5.1/bin/mysqld_safe --user=mysql --datadir=/var/mysql/5.1/da
   mysql  1291  1159   0 00:13:54 ?           0:00 /usr/mysql/5.1/bin/mysqld 
--basedir=/usr/mysql/5.1 --datadir=/var/mysql/5.1/dat



which shows that the mysqld file is in /usr/mysql/5.1/bin and the data 
directory is still the default. So then I went to that directory and did:


#./mysqld --print-defaults
--port=3306 --socket=/tmp/mysql.sock --skip-locking --key_buffer_size=16K 
--max_allowed_packet=1M --table_open_cache=4 --sort_buffer_size=64K 
--read_buffer_size=256K --read_rnd_buffer_size=256K --net_buffer_length=2K 
--thread_stack=128K --datadir=/tank/server/mysql/data --server-id=1 --port=3306 
--socket=/tmp/mysql.sock --skip-locking --key_buffer_size=16K 
--max_allowed_packet=1M --table_open_cache=4 --sort_buffer_size=64K 
--read_buffer_size=256K --read_rnd_buffer_size=256K --net_buffer_length=2K 
--thread_stack=128K --datadir=/tank/server/mysql/data --server-id=1


which shows that I got the correct datadir parameter in the my.cnf.

Lastly ./mysqladmin shows:
Default options are read from the following files in the given order:
/etc/my.cnf /etc/mysql/my.cnf /etc/mysql/5.1/my.cnf ~/.my.cnf


I saw here:
http://blogs.sun.com/rainy/entry/why_isn_t_mysql_using

that you can specify the config file when running the binary but I'm not sure 
how to do that in the correct manner while still using "svcadm enable mysql".

Any help would be great.

Thanks.
