just my 2 cents: The problem was (in my case) that at the time mysql upstart job is fired /var/run isn't mounted. There should be a tempfs in /var/run. Additional apparmor prevents mysql to put its sock under /var/run instead of /var/run/mysqld.
How can I tell upstart to start after mounted-varrun.conf is run?! -- infinite loop in /etc/init/mysql.conf if mysqld is not running. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/551130 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
