At least in the current version 5.0.18, mysqladmin waits up to one hour for the pid file to be removed by the mysqld process to make sure that it has really shutdown correctly. In case you still have the source code for you version check for the occurance of wait_pidfile below "case ADMIN_SHUTDOWN" in client/mysqladmin.cc. The pid file is really only removed when the server closed all connections, see sql/mysqld.cc in function kill_server() and unireg_end(). So maybe this was different back then, now I would close this bug report. bye, -christian- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
