Lou, I tested this on our SunOS-5.8 Sparc computer with 3.23.49:
bash-2.03$ df / (/dev/dsk/c0t0d0s0 ): 7499474 blocks 2033414 files /proc (/proc ): 0 blocks 5861 files /dev/fd (fd ): 0 blocks 0 files /etc/mnttab (mnttab ): 0 blocks 0 files /var/run (swap ): 1698576 blocks 40153 files /tmp (swap ): 1698576 blocks 40153 files ... innodb_data_file_path = /dev/dsk/c0t0d0s0:1Gnewraw innodb_data_home_dir = ... bash-2.03$ ./mysqld InnoDB: Operating system error number 13 in a file operation. InnoDB: See http://www.innodb.com/ibman.html for installation help. InnoDB: The error means mysqld does not have the access rights to InnoDB: the directory. InnoDB: File name /dev/dsk/c0t0d0s0 InnoDB: Cannot continue operation. bash-2.03$ It seems to find the path but naturally the OS does not allow it to write over the file system. In your case the question is why it does not find the path (errno 2)?
