Hi,
I am running mysql 3.23.53 on FreeBSD 4.4. I compiled mysql from source with
the following configure command:
--prefix=/usr/local --localstatedir=/var/db/mysql
Every now and then, the server seems to change its database directory to
/var/tmp. When it happens, "show databases" gives me the content of the
/var/tmp directory!
I had this problem for more than a year now, and I upgraded every time a new
version was available hoping it would fix it. I noticed that the higher to
load on the mysql daemon, the more likely it is to happen... So there is
probably a race condition or something.
The manual says mysql is less reliable on FreeBSD because of the poor
multi-threading implementation. I didn't expect I'd have to restard it every
day (!!)
Any help would be very appreciated.
Thank you,
Cedric
