Where did you obtain the rpm of mysql that you are using?
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 Name : MySQL Relocations: (not relocateable) Version : 3.22.23b Vendor: (none) Release : 1 Build Date: Thu Jun 17 15:08:09 1999Install date: (not installed) Build Host: peach.fruit Group : Applications/Databases Source RPM: MySQL-3.22.23b-1.src.rpmSize : 15845333 License: MySQL FREE PUBLIC LICENSE (See the file PUBLIC) Packager : David Axmark <david> URL : http://www.mysql.com/ Summary : MySQL: a very fast and reliable SQL database engine
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.
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.
