| I have setup a mysql50 instance on a system where mysql4.0.20 already exists. So that I can run both instances together, I setup a new user called mysql50. The mysql50 files are owned by this mysql50 user and mysql50 is in the path. I setup a link, /usr/local/mysql-5.0 which points to the mysql50 directory. I modifed the mysql.server and I put it in the mysql-5.0 directory. Inside the file is a user parameter called user. I set the user to mysql50. When I run mysql.server -start, It exists with an error. The error log sayd that I do not have permissions to the ibdata files. However, the error.log gets created by the mysql user and NOT the mysql50 user. So I think this script is trying to access the ibdata files in the mysql-4.0.20 folders and it cannot get to them since they are owned by mysql and not mysql-5.0. So I am kind of stuck at this point. My guess is somehwere else, both the user of mysql and the directory of mysql is set and since I am using different variables, it is not working. Anyway, if anyone has any suggestions, it would be appreciated.

| Hi Saravanan, Thanks, once I added this to the my.cnf in the mysqld section it worked!
