How to find the MariaDB data directory
29 June,2022 by Rambler
I received a question from a XAMPP developer about how to find the data directory in MariaDB. They were receiving the error : ERROR 1010 (HY000): Error dropping database (can't rmdir './mydatabase', errno: 39 "Directory not empty") and needed to establish the data directory location .
The purpose was to delete some non-table files - read here for an Easy fix for ERROR 1010 (HY000): Error dropping database
To find the MariaDB data directory use the following statement:
select @@datadir;
This command will return the directory e.g /mydatapath/myfolder
@@datadir returns the directory where your database files are stored.
