>Description:
mysql.server stop fails to stop the server even though
mysql.server start was used to start it.
The INSTALL-SOURCE text file recommends using the script
support-files/mysql.server to start mySQL at boot-time.
The startup works nice, but mysql-server stop fails.
The problem seems to be that the stopping code doesn't
recognize that the server was started with safe_mysqld
and that the safe_mysqld process must be killed first
for the mysqld process to die properly. (Don't flame me
if this is wrong, I'm only a newbie without a local guru.)
>How-To-Repeat:
Install mysql on OpenBSD (probably most BSDs?)
As root do:
# mysql.server start
# Starting mysqld daemon with databases from /var/mysqld
# mysql.server stop
# Killing mysqld with pid 21158
# 010722 20:51:03 mysqld restarted
# Waiting for mysqld to exit................ gave up waiting!
# ps -U mysql
# PID ... TIME COMMAND
6712 0:00:06 /usr/local/libexec/mysqld -basedir=/usr/local...
safe_mysqld is still running too.
>Fix:
Only the obvious occur to me: change the script mysql.server
so that it first finds the safe_mysql process and kills it.
Then kill mysqld properly.
Now I can do that manually with kill -9, but I'm to novice to
shell scripting, signals and mySQL to attempt any more
organized fixes...
