Greetings, I have successfully configured mysqld_multi to have mysql 4.1.11 and 5.0.3 beta running on the same machine:
# mysqld_multi start & # exit % mysqld_multi report Reporting MySQL servers MySQL server from group: mysqld4 is running MySQL server from group: mysqld5 is running % However, I can't get this to work at system startup time. Starting up a single mysql server works fine, with the following /Library/StartupItems/MySQL/MySQL script: #!/bin/sh . /etc/rc.common if [ "${MYSQL:=-YES-}" = "-YES-" ]; then ConsoleMessage "Starting MySQL database server" /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqld_safe & fi But if I change " /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqld_safe &" to " /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqld_multi start &", no servers start up. There are also no error messages in the .err logs: the last item there is the previous 'normal shutdown'. Any ideas? I would think that there should be no difference between executing mysqld_multi from a root shell and executing it at startup time, but apparently it's not the same.
