今天，在一台旧机器上编译一个新的Mysql，install时出了错：

它试图去lock /usr/local/mysql/var/ibdata1，这并不是我想要的行为。我指定的basedir=/usr/local/mysql_5615，datadir=/mnt/disk1/mysql_5615，想来想去也不明白。可是怎么找到/usr/local/mysql/var/ibdata1来的呢？我查了查，服务器上的确有一个mysqld已经在跑了，而且用的就是这个数据文件。我的正确解决办法总不能是把人家的干掉啊。读了读mysql_install_db脚本，有些难懂，一下子也理解不出它为什么指定了这个目录。后来想到它应该是找到了某些我不想要的my.cnf文件。
于是查查：
/usr/local/mysql_5615/bin/mysqld --verbose --help | grep -A 'Default options'
-- :: [ERROR] Fatal error: Please read "Security" section of the manual to find out how to run mysqld as root!Default options are read from the following files in the given order:
/etc/my.cnf /etc/mysql/my.cnf /mnt/disk1/mysql_5615/my.cnf ~/.my.cnf
-- :: [ERROR] Aborting-- :: [Note] Binlog end
再ls一下这四个my.cnf，果然发现/etc/my.cnf是存在的。看看内容，正是正在运行的那个mysqld用的。把它暂时改名，再来mysql_install_db ，成功了。 回头要细读一下mysql_install_db 脚本了。
另：我还是喜欢什么东西都清清楚楚的。my.cnf还是喜欢放在自己的默认位置，这种用系统默认目录的，总是不喜欢。不过服务器也不是我的，不理了……
