Hi, I've been thinking and MySQL uses MYSQLD_MULTI in /etc/sysconfig/mysql to determine whether user wants to start several instances of MySQL. If it is set to yes, init script starts mysql daemon for every mysqldN section in /etc/my.cnf As some users find it confusing to have /etc/my.cnf and /etc/sysconfig/mysql at the same time, I propose to drop /etc/sysconfig/mysql. It should be possible to check in init script whether user has several daemons configured and act accordingly. So we can get rid of the other configuration file and depend only on one configuration file. Only question is if anybody else then mysql need this sysconfig file... Does anybody think that we should preserve this sysconfig file? Do you know about anything else what needs this sysconfig variable? -- Michal Hrusecky Package Maintainer SUSE LINUX, s.r.o e-mail: mhrusecky@suse.cz -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
