It is more likely that it is a problem with the mysql sysvinit script and mysqld itself. What is probably wrong is that mysqld is daemonizing and returning control to the terminal before it is _actually_ ready. Note that in Ubuntu the upstart job for mysqld runs it in the foreground, and the post-start _polls mysqld_ so that anything that wants to be 'start on started mysqld' will have a working mysqld. Still, I would appreciate the "it doesn't work" full description too. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
