At first glace, it appears that you have not copied the old 'mysql' database folder from your old --datadir location to the new one. MySQL only knows about the one active folder you have defined in your configuration file. It does not remember any older settings where you want your databases to be stored.

Remember to make the new files in the new data directory owned by the current mysql user and group.

Yours,
