To be completely safe:


cd /var/mysql            #  or where ever your databases are stored.

mysqladmin -p shutdown   #  shut down database to make sure all
                         #  tables are flushed, and closed

mv OldDbName NewDbName   #  rename the directory

safe_mysqld &            #  restart mysqld


mysql -p                 #  Reassign the permissions

>REVOKE all users of the old table name
>GRANT all users of the new table name

> Prehaps you can rename the database file in mysql/bin  ie.
> database_name.sql to new_database_name.sql and that will work?
