Confused about where the mysql data base is on a Debian mythtv box...

Hi...

I am confused about several things. But before I get into what I really
want to do - I would like to know where the mysql data base is on
standard Debian Mythtv box. I think it is in the directory
"/var/lib/mysql/mythconverg". But last my myth network stopped working
- there were indications that mysql was trying to access the totally
full partition where the recordings were stored. Which, BTW, is in a
different partition than the "/var/lib/mysql/mythconverg" directory is.

-thanks

...you also have to worry about transaction logs. If they don't have a
filesystem to write to, your database tends to stop. This is usually
in /var/log/mysql.

As far as Debian/Ubuntu and mysql, you need to worry about /var/log/mysql
and /var/lib/mysql.

Trunk also has a tendency to run amok with the log files for mythfrontend
and mythbackend and you can fill up a volume with those too.
