(1) Right now for my installation of mysql56-server (and mysql56), I've put all
my configuration settings in
/opt/local/etc/mysql56/my.cnf
(a) With _no_ setting there for basedir, mysql server and client work just
fine.
(b) If I use "basedir = /opt/local/lib/mysql56", then the server won't
start. I get error:
"The server quit without updating PID file
(/opt/local/var/db/mysql56/Blackstone.local.pid)."
So what should the value of basedir be, in other words, for the MacPorts
port just what _is_ the "installation
directory" (as the MySQL docs say the value should be)??
(2) For the MacPorts version of mysql, what is the recommended or preferred
location for my.cnf?
Possibilities are:
/opt/local/etc/mysql56/my.cnf (which I'm using)
/opt/local/etc/my.cnf
/private/etc/my.cnf
