Error 13 Permission Denied means that the mysqld process doesn't have permission by the filesystem to create whatever files/directories it needs to in the dir you have listed as datadir. Make sure mysqld is running as the right user (ps aux | grep mysqld) or chmod -R the datadir so mysqld can write to it.

Hi there,

I need to install a database on a RedHat system. Although I'm pretty at ease with Debian, I feel a little unconfortable and cannot find why I get an Error: errno 13 (Permission Denied) when I try to create a new database.

Is there some place to look at first? I cannot find any way to do this easily. There is no strace installed on the system (nor any possibility to do so easily).

Any idea?

Thanks,
