[Bug 359177] [NEW] Strange or obsolete code in mysql initscript

2009-04-10 Thread Alexey Sveshnikov
Public bug reported:

Hi.

There is several snippets in mysql init script, with 'log_end_msg 1',
call and some code after it.

'log_end_msg' returns it's argument as exit status. So 'log_end_msg 1'
will be intrepreted by bash as command that always fails. Option '-e' in
bash causes script to bail out in case of any error.

So in this fragment:


'stop')
  .
  log_daemon_msg Stopping MySQL database server mysqld
  if ! mysqld_status check_dead nowarn; then
set +e
shutdown_out=`$MYADMIN shutdown 21`; r=$?
set -e
if [ $r -ne 0 ]; then
  log_end_msg 1

All futher code will never being executed:

  [ $VERBOSE != no ]  log_failure_msg Error: $shutdown_out  

  log_daemon_msg Killing MySQL database server by signal mysqld
  killall -15 mysqld
  ...

Moreover, 'VERBOSE' variable is undefined.

So, I think this code is a little strange one. By the way, I also think
that killing all mysqld processes is not very good idea too (MySQL
Enterprise Monitor, for example, runs it's own mysqld instance that
shouldn't be killed by this init script)

I can send a patch for it if it will be helpful.
