Alternative solution: 1. Edit /etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.mysqld and add the following two lines:
/home/mysql/ r, /home/mysql/** rwk, somewhere in the middle of the file. After the /var/lib/mysql lines would be fine. 2. /etc/init.d/apparmor restart 3. /etc/init.d/mysql restart You retain the benefis of apparmor. Maybe the comments in /etc/mysql/my.cnf regarding apparmor can be expanded to cover exactly what you should do if you reset mysql_data. -- Confusing mysqld startup failure with apparmor (Hardy) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/201799 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to mysql-dfsg-5.0 in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
