1 Hello,
2
3 i upgraded mysql a few months ago.
4 i remember that this upgrade was that one that added the file server-running to /etc/init.d/mysql
5 i've been running mysql 4 since 08/2005, 1st install.
6 current installed version is 4.1.21. in this version the check for the server-running file was removed.
7 the problem appeared 2 upgrades ago. (4.0.x) last version was 4.0.27 , previous 4.0.26 .
8 when i upgraded to 4.1.21 from 4.0.27 i created a db dump, but not from 4.0.26->4.0.27.
9 i'm using a nptl-enabled compilation.
10
11 problem is i can't start the mysql server through the init script.
12 i set debug to max possible, but the output is just a counter to 40 and starting mysql failed.
13 when i'm starting the mysql server by hand with the parameters in the init script,
14 it runs fine, however as soon as i want to restart daemons depending upon mysql, the mysql server stops,
15 and i have to start it manually, which is annoying as e.g. i would like to restart apache or other daemons daily through cron.
16
17 i know a reboot would very likely solve the problem, but thats not an option. (366 days uptime ruined, nooo :) ).
18 it's not because of ibdata or similar files, it has to be something in the init script or in the content of some file that
19 drives the start-stop-daemon crazy.
20
21 any help appreciated
22
23 i hope my english wasn't too bad.
24
25 p.s.: does anyone know of a namebased virtualhosting module or similar for apache2 that doesn't require a graceful apache2 restart?
