Hello, we apologize for the delayed response, but as Ubuntu has moved on from upstart to systemd, it will not affect newer releases in the same way so we will close this one out

For more info see the dupes, particularily bug 105457. Does not happen always, for reliable test case see below. This is a bug (race condition) in dash, partly fixed by http://git.kernel.org/?p=utils/dash/dash.git;a=commit;h=3800d4934391b144fd261a7957aea72ced7d47ea . This fixes the test case and mysqld_safe, but introduces another regression: http://eeek.borgchat.net/lists/dash/msg00268.html (patch for that in the thread) TEST CASE: Script in the commit message (link above). Allows to reproduce this always, even on Karmic still. (Proposed fix of using #!/bin/bash instead of #!/bin/sh is not as straigtforward as expected. bash called as sh goes into sh compatibility mode, called as bash it may behave subtle differently) NOTES: mysqld_safe was replaced by an upstart job in Lucid. But Hardy has support for 3 more years, justifiying a fix.
