I have a 'normal user' mysql setup on a server not my own - I have no
root access and they won't add mysql to the server's startup scripts.
I need a way to have the daemon start up when the server is rebooted.
I do have access to cron jobs, so I thought I might build a script
that fires every five minutes or so, looks to see if mysql is already
running, and if not tries to fire it up. (It runs under my userid)
Has anyone else already done this? Can I borrow a copy of your
script? I can do a fairly simple one if need be, but if someone else
has already done this it would save me some time, and yours is
probably better than mine would be anyway!!
I suppose it might be worthwhile to also use this as a watchdog and
send me email if it fails to start.
Thanks in advance
