adminEven though you used chmod 644, make sure mysql is the owner of the logs.
touch /var/log/mysql.log
chown mysql:mysql /var/log/mysql.log
touch /var/log/mysql.error.log
chown mysql:mysql /var/log/mysql.error.log
Next, restart mysqld.
Then, log into mysql and run:
mysql> show variables like '%log%';

Steps for enabled
- Centos
touch /var/log/mysql.log
chown mysql:mysql /var/log/mysql.log
touch /var/log/mysql.error.log
chown mysql:mysql /var/log/mysql.error.log[mysqld] log-bin=/var/log/mysql-bin.log general-log=/var/log/mysql.log log-error=/var/log/mysql-error.log slow-query-log=/var/log/mysql-slowquery.log
Also log-slow-queries is not valid and caused the error
C:\mysql\bin\mysqld.exe: unknown option '--log-slow-queries'
So be certain to stay away from that also.
