Hi, [one more try, to get someone to try the new startup script for mysql. Or did someone try it out already?] anybody out there that want to test a new mysql rpm, that supports the start of multiple databases during system startup (and stop during shutdown)? The rpm and it's dependencies can be retrieved from this repository: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/server:/database:/mysql51/openSUSE... (a 10.3 version is available as well) The /etc/init.d/mysql script has 2 legs: - 1 with code that is currently in use - and a leg with the new code, that starts and stops multiple databases With a variable in /etc/sysconfig/mysql (or in the sysconfig editor Applications/Mysql) one can select which leg to use. To use the new code the variable MYSQLD_MULTI has to be set "yes". The code to start the multiple databases uses mysqld_multi that comes with the mysql code to start the databases. Databases can be added using the databases sections at the bottom of /etc/my.cnf Looking forward to test reports! -- Richard Bos We are borrowing the world of our children, It is not inherited from our parents. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
