I'm having trouble with starting mysql at boot time on a Slackware 9.0
box.

This is what I did:
I put the following lines in rc.local

if [ -x /etc/rc.d/rc.mysql ]; then
. /etc/rc.d/rc.mysql start
fi

rc.mysql is actually a soft link to /usr/share/mysql/mysql.server, and
when I execute it from bash it works normally.
It even works if I run /etc/rc.d/rc.local from bash.
But when I boot up, mysql server starts up and suddenly quit.
Any idea?
I also run at boot time apache and cups, all following the 'standard'
Slackware way and without any trouble.

HHave you perhaps tried to remove the period which sources that file into
rc.local and instead execute it as a seperate process?

Maybe. Run mysql.server from bash and then log out of that shell. Now see
if mysql is still running. If it isn't, then that process is tied to your
shell and as long as your shell is running, so will it. Otherwise it just
won't continue.

In case you're interested, George put a few nice little scrits up at:

Take a look at mysql_setup.tar.gz (originally done by mRgOBlin IIRC) and
doinst_sh.mysql.

This is irrelevant. There is no standard way for running mysql under
slackware.

Hi.
On my server (Slackware 9.0) I put following line to rc.local and if works
for me:
/bin/sh -c '/usr/bin/safe_mysqld --user=mysql --log &'

Greetings,

Right, nothing seems to change (apart from chmodding root:root and
root:mysql some files in mysql working dirs).

I don't have any other mysql processes running, as it is run at boot
time.
