Joel,
As someone mentioned previously check your .cnf/.ini file. Also you may want to look at the output of rpm test installation and which all directories and files it will affect, (dont remember the options for that), but it may help, may be you have to create /usr/local/mysql/data directory.

Hi Krishna
Thanks for your reply. Please note I have logged as root during the configuration process and also note there is no directory like /usr/local/mysql/data existing for me to check the permission.
Regards
Joel

Check for the UserId and permission on the data directory. I think error 13 is for permission denied. HTH. -Krishna
