I've seen many questions about how to run multiple sql servers on one server, but I would like to run mysqld as a user-level process and completely self contained in a folder (I have no permissions outside my user folder).
I spent some time using the --defaults-file=my.cnf, but it still seems to conflict with the system-level mysql server that's running.
Does anybody know how to do this?
Thanks in advance!
