--------------------------------------- On upgrading from 5.0.32-7 to 5.0.36-1 I was affected by this bug. It hung at the configuration stage with "Stopping MySQL database server". My fix was to killall -9 mysqld processes, remove mysql-server-5.0 and then reinstall the old version of mysql-server-5.0 that I had in /var/cache/apt/archives. This package is installed on a 2.4.26 host running under user-mode linux (a Bytemark.co.uk host) Cheers, Michael Gellman ------------------------------------------ I booted an old 2.4.22 kernel and installed the mysql-server-5.0 package. I seem to be able to create databases and query them. I don't have the current sarge 2.4 kernel installed, so I can't check with that one (I suppose I can download an install that though). I do however have libmysqlclient15off 5.0.36 patched with the cpuid fix, but the mysql-server-5.0 is the current etch version. -- Len Sorensen ------------------------------------- Isn't this only reported against the version in sid, which is not included in etch? .... -- Steve Langasek ----------------------------------------- Of course, there are other reports of it failing with 2.4 kernels. I don't think anybody asserted that it should work with 2.4. Ross -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
