Subject: Problems with MySQL Linux init.d startup 
Date: Sun, 21 Mar 1999 11:11:44 -0800

I am running TurboLinux 3.0.1 with MySQL 3.22.20a.

This is an updated RPM package install=20

mysqld is in:
     /usr/sbin/mysqld
mysql is in:
     /usr/bin/mysql
databases are in:
    /var/lib/mysql/

There is also a directory with some scripts and stuff in:
    /usr/share/mysql/

There is a file /etc/rc.d/init.d/mysql which is linked to =
/etc/rc.d/rc3.d/S98mysql which is what is run at boot time.  It looks =
like a pretty standard stop/start a daemon type thing. =20

The problem is that when the init.d scripts are being executed, the =
mysql dies almost immediately after it starts.
The /var/lib/mysql/vader.pacbell.net.err (hostname.err) file looks like =
this:

mysqld started on  Sat Mar 20 11:53:06 PST 1999
990320 11:53:08  /usr/sbin/mysqld: Can't find file: './mysql/user.frm' =
(errno: 13)
mysqld ended on  Sat Mar 20 11:53:09 PST 1999

Funny thing is, (not knowing where it assumes the current dir is =
exactly) /var/lib/mysql/mysql/usr.frm exists=20

Funnier still is that when I log in as root and run the same script: =
/etc/rc.d/init.d/mysql start, it starts up just fine with the usual 3 =
processes and everything appears normal...  Can anyone tell me what is =
going on here?  How do I stop it from dying at startup?

Thanks=20

Hi!

Please make sure that mysql server is called last in the init sequence 
calls, and that it it is called with right options.

Among other things system should be in multi-user mode to function properly.
