Re: Log Files

set these options in the option file under the [mysqld] section

log-slow-queries=
log=

log= is the general query log

i am not sure what you mean by the mysql log. if you mean the error log than that would be

log-error=

if you mean the binary log that would be

log-bin=

if you don't enter anything after the = sign then the server will use the default name and location for the logs which is generally "hostname-logtype".log in the data directory. the exception would be the binary log which is still in the data directory but is named "hostname-bin".xxxxxx with xxxxxx being ascending numbers beginning with 000001

Do you need help?
