Summary:                    /var/opt/csw/mysql5/my.cnf ignored
Description: 
The start up script:
/var/opt/csw/svc/method/svc-cswmysql5
has provision to use a local configuration:
MYSQL_VAR=/var/opt/csw/mysql5
CONFFILE=$MYSQL_VAR/my.cnf

but it fails:

WARNING: Found two instances of my.cnf -
/opt/csw/mysql5/my.cnf and
/var/opt/csw/mysql5/my.cnf
IGNORING /var/opt/csw/mysql5/my.cnf

If I can't write to /opt this is a problem and if I can then I'm wasting
my time in /var/opt anyway.

Phil: The startup script does not contain the block you mentioned (if test
-r "$MY_BASEDIR_VERSION/my.cnf" && test -r "$DATADIR/my.cnf").  Where did
you get this line from?
