Description Martijn Broeders 2005-02-21 20:30:10 UTC

The OVERWRITE_DB make argument is ignored in the Makefile of the mysql41-server port.

How-To-Repeat: - cd /usr/ports/databases/mysql41-server
- make install
- [Create a database with some name with the mysql program]
- set FORCE_PKG_REGISTER=yes
- cd /usr/ports/databases/mysql41-server
- make install OVERWRITE_DB=no
- mysqlshow -u root

And you'll see that your newly created database is gone.

OVERWRITE_DB=no has no effects, since the db is not created during installation. 
Probably you are not creating the db in the path where the daemon expects it.
