Hi, I'm on Debian system. I tried to modify /etc/mysql/debian-log-rotate to set KEEP-BINARY-LOGS from 0 to 5. After doing so I attempted to let the change register by stopping and restarting the server by running /etc/init.d/mysql stop. However this command hanged. I rebooted the system and but the server wouldn't start (well at least it hangs when i tried /etc/init.d/mysql start) I suspect the problem has nothing to do with the change in KEEP_BINARY_LOGS. What could be the problem?
The Mysql version is 4.1.14. Timothy
