Hi all,
I have built MySQL 5.1.24-rc on Linux and have got the binaries in
/home/amit/work-space/mysql/mysql_install/
Now, when I start the MySQL server daemon:
amit@ubuntu804-laptop:~/work-space/mysql/mysql_install/libexec$ ./mysqld
This is what I get:
080618 12:42:03 [ERROR] Can't find messagefile
'/usr/share/mysql/english/errmsg.sys'
080618 12:42:03 [Warning] Can't create test file
/var/lib/mysql/ubuntu804-laptop.lower-test
080618 12:42:03 [Warning] Can't create test file
/var/lib/mysql/ubuntu804-laptop.lower-test
./mysqld: Can't change dir to '/var/lib/mysql/' (Errcode: 2)
080618 12:42:03 [ERROR] Aborting
I believe I will have to over-ride the default locations to point to
my custom installation directory.
How do I do this?
Thanks,
Amit
