Are you sure about that error message?

I would understand "data" or "/foo/data" but it seems "foo/data" is an
entirely different kind of bug: basedir is there but relative instead of
absolute.

Title:
  --datadir is not relative to --basedir

Status in A Lightweight SQL Database for Cloud Infrastructure and Web Applications:
  New

Bug description:
  The drizzled --help for --basedir says: "Path to installation
  directory. All paths are usually resolved relative to this."  This
  does not seem to be true.  If basedir=/foo and datadir=data is
  specified, Drizzle fails to start with an error like "Aborting:"Data
  directory foo/data does not exist". Abort was called from
  drizzled/main.cc:297 in main()"

  Perhaps all paths are no longer relative to --basedir and the --help
  just needs to be updated?  Or, all paths are supposed to be relative
  to --basedir and this is a bug in the code.
