MySQL log Files are generally stored in/var/log/mysqld. log. The following describes how to modify the location of MySQL log files for your reference.

Today, you need to change the location of the MySQL Log File and find that it cannot be changed in/etc/my. cnf.

It was found that the MySQL Log bit is specified:

[Root @ localhost etc] # ps aux | grep mysqld
Root 11830 0.5 0.0 4524 1204 pts/0 S/bin/sh/usr/bin/mysqld_safe -- datadir =/data/mysql -- socket =/var/lib/mysql. sock -- log-error =/var/log/mysqld. log -- pid-file =/var/run/mysqld. pid
