The err file is created by safe_mysqld to catch the output mysqld produces when it cannot start. As mysqld outputs to stderr on errors, too, everything is appended to that file in the nohup line, too. So there's currently the problem whether never to rotate it or to loose the errors messages. I change the behaviour of the Debian package to not rotating now. A better fix is coming hopefully, I already proposed some possible solutions to the [EMAIL PROTECTED] list (reopening the file in flush-logs or using syslog). bye, -christian- (maintainer of Debian mysql package) --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
