I've been trying to put the data onto our data drive, and the mysql
application on the main server. I've edited the my.ini file correctly.
I can get it to work on different drives where the data is on the same
computer as mysql. I can't get it to work where the data is on a
different computer.
Below is a copy of the my.ini. I've also tried it where my
datadir=S:/mydata/data where I put the virtual drive letter in. No go.
the service will not start. I'm using version 4.0.18-nt. I've also
tried it with version 4.1.21-win32. Same result. Works on a different
drive but both mysql and data must be on the same computer. Any thoughts?
