          Description

          Simply by adding "log-basename = master" to a my.cnf file, the definitions for pid-file and log-error are ignored.

          This may include other settings as well but I cannot confirm that.

          How to repeat:

          my.cnf
          pid-file=/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.pid
log-error=/var/log/mysql/mysqld.err
log-basename = master

          Expected results:
          /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.pid and /var/log/mysql/mysqld.err to be written to.

          Actual results:
          $DATADIR/master.pid and $DATADIR/master.err are created and written to

                putting log-basename first works as expected

                I think it's natural behavior, consistent with how server options are treated in general. You have one option that sets the value for a variable, then you have another one that contradicts the first one, so the first one gets ignored and the later one is used.

                Assigning to Michael Widenius (as the author of the option) to confirm.
