Description phostetl 1999-07-06 15:30:52 UTC 
After adding mysql.server using:

# chkconfig --add mysql.server
# chkconfig --level 345 mysql.server on


Running:

# chkconfig --list | grep mysql

fails to list mysql.server.


# locate mysql.server
/etc/rc.d/init.d/mysql.server
/etc/rc.d/rc0.d/K90mysql.server
/etc/rc.d/rc1.d/K90mysql.server
/etc/rc.d/rc3.d/S90mysql.server
/etc/rc.d/rc4.d/S90mysql.server
/etc/rc.d/rc5.d/S90mysql.server
/etc/rc.d/rc6.d/K90mysql.server
/usr/local/share/mysql/mysql.server
/usr/src/redhat/SOURCES/mysql-3.22.22/support-files/mysql.server.sh

The file /etc/rc.d/init.d/mysql.server contains the required
info for chkconfig:

# Comments to support chkconfig on RedHat Linux
# chkconfig: 2345 90 90

Where did you obtain the rpm of mysql that you are using?
Comment 2 phostetl 1999-07-08 01:43:59 UTC 
MySQL was built from an srpm (no longer available for 3.22.23b at
www.mysql.org.)

$ rpm -qip MySQL-3.22.23b-1.i386.rpm

Comment 3 phostetl 1999-07-12 17:10:59 UTC 
Rebuilt MySQL using 3.22.25 srpm.  There was a change of
/etc/rc.d/init.d/mysql.server to /etc/rc.d/init.d/mysql .  chkconfig
works fine with the non-dotted name.  The problem appears to be that
chkconfig couldn't handle somename.anything.
Comment 4 David Lawrence 1999-07-12 17:49:59 UTC 
Yep, the init scripts can no longer use the dot notation. That was
changed a while back. All new initscripts should be a single word now.
