GerryG, you mention this but I wanted to confirm that it worked for me.
I changed /etc/init/mysql.conf
start on (net-device-up
and local-filesystems
and runlevel[2345])
stop on runlevel [016]
to
start on (net-device-up IFACE=lo and local-filesystems)
stop on runlevel [016]
This worked for me and there are probably caveats I haven't had problems
with yet. Also of note I removed "and runlevel[2345]" because on my
system (a production server that only boots to runlevel 3) mysql will
not start with this line present. Not sure if this is an issue for
systems that boot to runlevel 5.
