Hello,

A new question has been asked in "MariaDB Community" by bits45. Please answer 
it at http://mariadb.com/kb/en/cannot-change-socket-location-in-10021/ as the 
person asking the question may not be subscribed to the mailing list.

--------------------------------
I'm trying to change the socket file location to anything other than 
/var/lib/mysql on Red Hat 6.6 x64.  Using the socket variable in server.cnf or 
even in my.cnf does not appear to honor the varable.

I've tried placing the variable setting in various locations in the server.cnf 
file, but nothing seems to work.  The socket file is always created in 
/var/lib/mysql, or the database has problems starting up.  Where else do I 
search for this?  Could it have been compiled in by accident?

If I try this with MySQL 5.6 Community version it works without issue - I 
placed the variable in /etc/my.cnf file under [mysqld]

Again, I'm using the non enterprise version of MariaDB 10.0.21 with RHEL 6.6.

I downloaded MariaDB from the yum repositories via MariaDB.com

Thanks,
