That happens to me too, after an upgrade from RHL73. The problem is that the rc scripts tries to contact the daemon by issuing an /usr/bin/mysqladmin ping command, (wrongly) assuming that the daemon is not running in case of repeated failures. In my case, the failure is due to the fact I protected the 'root' MySQL account with a password (which seemed to me a pretty logical action to take). One way to fix it is to add a --password='xxxxxx' option to mysqladmin in /etc/rc.d/init.d/mysqld, but this leads to obvious security issues. A better approach is to change the rc script not to use 'mysqladmin ping' at all. The best approach (IMHO) involves patching mysql to allow non authenticated pings, or using a different user (maybe a dummy one) to perform the ping. *** Bug 119042 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** It seems unlikely that we'd roll mysql in fc1 just for this, but I'll keep the bug open as a reminder in case there's another reason to do an update. *** Bug 120491 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Since FC1 is not being maintained anymore by Red Hat, I'm going to close out this bug entry. |
