I have the following in my /etc/my.cnf [mysqld] datadir=/usr/data/mysql pid-file=/usr/data/mysql/mysql.pid socket=/usr/data/mysql/mysql.sock user=mysql
[mysql_safe] log-error=/usr/data/mysql/mysql.err [client] socket=/usr/data/mysql/mysql.sock I tried originally to put the log-error= in the [mysqld] section and it errored out, believe I read somewhere then that it should be in the [mysql_safe] section My log file is still writing to $HOSTNAME.err Is me /etc/my.cnf file wrong in some way? -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
