Dear all,
Years ago I started to organise my study in a central repository inside a much earlier xampp. After a while I moved the whole thing to a USB stick for portability (which in itself was pretty neat). Recently I tried moving it to a DropBox location (giving me the ability to run it as normal from my machines, but also access the data from my mobile devices which is just blooming fantastic!!!!!). I achieved this by installing xampp on my pc's but locating htdocs on DropBox and editing httpd.conf on each machine to point to this location ... Easy
So now I'd like to try the same with MySQL, however this seems a little more complex to achieve by virtue of the fact that all configs to MySQL appear to live within the MySQL directory itself ... how do I relocate the directory if all the config live inside the directory i'm trying to move? I must be missing something
Id appreciate your thoughts
Thanks in advance
