More detail on the problem:
using server 5.1.16
mysql> show variables like '%log_file%'\G
*************************** 1. row ***************************
Variable_name: general_log_file
Value: /usr/local/mysql/data/my_host_name.log
*************************** 2. row ***************************
Variable_name: slow_query_log_file
Value: /usr/local/mysql/data/my_host_name-slow.log
using version 5.1.17
show variables like '%log%_file'\G
*************************** 1. row ***************************
Variable_name: general_log_file
Value: /usr/local/mysql/data/my_host_name.pid.log
*************************** 2. row ***************************
Variable_name: slow_query_log_file
Value: /usr/local/mysql/data/my_host_name.pid-slow.log
notice the ".pid" that should not be there in the log file name.

Closing this since the originally reported problem has been fixed and pushed. If log files show up in var/run/ I would say it's by design. The mysqld will when it startup send log files there until it get the instructions from "arguments" to start sending them somewhere else.

appearance of log files in run directory is explainable with that bug#20166 introduced a new schema for log file name generating via pidname_file. That led to some consequences which bug#28597 is all about. The correct fix for this bug is to strip off the directory part of a generated name in MYSQL_LOG::generate_name(). See the bug#28597's patch.

Description: Running the test suite with MySQL 5.1.17 will issue a warning about non pid files being found in the var/run directory. It seems that the server is creating logs that are not requested in the configuration file. How to repeat: 1) make sure that $basedir/mysql-test/var/run is empty 2) run a test ./mysql-test-run.pl alias 3) inspect the var/run directory $ ls var/run/ master.log 4) run the test again ./mysql-test-run.pl alias ... mysql-test-run: WARNING: Found non pid file master.log in /my_path_to_build/mysql-test/var/run ... 5) more interesting tests to run are rpl000011, log_state, rpl_dual_pos_advance (creates a binary relay-log in var/run) $ rm -f var/{run,log}/* $ ./mtr rpl_dual_pos_advance $ ls -l var/run var/run/: total 16 -rw-rw---- 1 121 Mar 13 09:19 master-relay-bin.000001 -rw-rw---- 1 66 Mar 13 09:19 master-relay-bin.index -rw-rw---- 1 225 Mar 13 09:19 master.log -rw-rw---- 1 224 Mar 13 09:19 slave.log
