Greetings ,
I run into a rather strange situation . While boot i get the message
"Timeout error occured trying to start MySQL Daemon" .
Starting MySQL Daemon [FAILED]
Before the error get's printed there is a delay of about 5 seconds .
The thing is that after the machine boots
root@Magellan root]# ps -ax | grep mysqld
1951 ? S 0:00 /bin/sh /usr/bin/safe_mysqld --defaults-file=/etc/my. cnf
1975 ? S 0:00 /usr/libexec/mysqld --defaults-file=/etc/my.cnf --bas edir=/usr --datadir=/var/lib/mysql --user=mysql --pid-file=/var/run/mysqld/mysql d.pid --skip-locking
1976 ? S 0:00 /usr/libexec/mysqld --defaults-file=/etc/my.cnf --bas edir=/usr --datadir=/var/lib/mysql --user=mysql --pid-file=/var/run/mysqld/mysql d.pid --skip-locking
1977 ? S 0:00 /usr/libexec/mysqld --defaults-file=/etc/my.cnf --bas edir=/usr --datadir=/var/lib/mysql --user=mysql --pid-file=/var/run/mysqld/mysql d.pid --skip-locking
1978 ? S 0:00 /usr/libexec/mysqld --defaults-file=/etc/my.cnf --bas edir=/usr --datadir=/var/lib/mysql --user=mysql --pid-file=/var/run/mysqld/mysql d.pid --skip-locking
[root@Magellan root]#
Now , my question is , if the MySQL Daemon failled to start , then what is the meaning of the above .
Furthermore if i try to run mysql ( the client ) i get :
[root@Magellan root]# mysql -p -u root Enter password: Welcome to the MySQL monitor. Commands end with ; or \g. Your MySQL connection id is 12 to server version: 3.23.58
Type 'help;' or '\h' for help. Type '\c' to clear the buffer.
mysql> \help
MySQL commands: Note that all text commands must be first on line and end with ';' help (\h) Display this help. ? (\?) Synonym for `help'. clear (\c) Clear command. ......
So it appears that MySQL Daemon started ,
from /var/log/messages :
Feb 10 00:08:57 Magellan mysqld: Starting MySQL: failed
from /var/log/mysql.log
050210 00:08:47 mysqld started /usr/libexec/mysqld: ready for connections
Now this says that the MySQL Daemon started , but if the MySQL Daemon started then why /var/log/messages
says that it failled and what's the meaning of the timeout error message i get during the boot proccess
Kind Regards, Kostas
