Workaround: Shutdown on OS X

2002-01-30 Thread Steve Fox

For anyone having trouble with shutting down mysqld on OS X
(especially if it times out waiting on the PID file):

I had been having trouble getting mysql (3.23.26) to shutdown on OS X
(10.1.1).
I had been using sudo to start safe_mysqld with user mysql

Now I su as user mysql to run safe_mysqld
To stop I su mysql and run mysqladmin.

I start and stop it frequently since its running on a laptop and
I haven't had a shutdown problem since I started doing it this way.
