For some reason the Upstart script for the MySQL server isn't working when I boot my server, however it does work once the server has booted and I execute sudo start mysql manually.
I'm running an OpenVZ VPS with Ubuntu 10.04 installed and MySQL version 5.1.41 (latest stable from the repository). MySQL is a fresh install with no config changed.
/etc/init/mysql.conf:
# MySQL Service
description "MySQL Server"
author "Mario Limonciello <superm1@ubuntu.com>"
start on (net-device-up
and local-filesystems
and runlevel [2345])
stop on runlevel [016]
respawn
env HOME=/etc/mysql
umask 007
pre-start script
#Sanity checks
[ -r $HOME/my.cnf ]
[ -d /var/run/mysqld ] || install -m 755 -o mysql -g root -d /var/run/mysqld
# Load AppArmor profile
if aa-status --enabled 2>/dev/null; then
apparmor_parser -r /etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.mysqld || true
fi
LC_ALL=C BLOCKSIZE= df --portability /var/lib/mysql/. | tail -n 1 | awk '{ exit ($4<4096) }'
end script
exec /usr/sbin/mysqld
post-start script
for i in `seq 1 30` ; do
/usr/bin/mysqladmin --defaults-file="${HOME}"/debian.cnf ping && {
exec "${HOME}"/debian-start
# should not reach this line
exit 2
}
sleep 1
done
exit 1
end script
