Redneckery to allow reboots till this bug fixed don't work because apparently systemctl is seriously brain dead.
So the normal shut magic won't work... echo 'mysqladmin --defaults-extra-file=/etc/mysql/debian.cnf shutdown' > /etc/rc6.d/K00-msyql-stop chmod +x /etc/rc6.d/K00-msyql-stop Will update when I determine a workaround. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1468804 Title: mysql stop/restart fails + breaking mysql + reboots To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mysql-dfsg-5.1/+bug/1468804/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
