Hello again all, Any news on the tracking of this bug?
anything I can do to test the function of an upstart script? I would be able to help out in terms of testing of the upstart script etc. I am wondering if this is an issue due to installing from source on the original instal - I obviously decided to do things the hard way! I do have a 'server system' running on another box, and I don't believe that I have the same problems on that box (I only just realised this system was runnning mysql). Why however, after removing mysql from my system, then re-installing from the repo's do I still have a problem? Anything I can do to investigate? Clean install?? If I do this I would need to copy my tables over to another external HDD (not a problem), however I like to try to keep my solutions to problems 'simple' and for a general user this may be a something they may not want to do - that being said anyone running a full blown server system most likely has the experience to know what they are doing so it probably wouldn't be a problem for them. Has anyone confirmed this problem on another system as still being in existance? if it is truly just my strange system setup, and a clean install is the recomended solution, then clean install it will be. please tell me what I can do to help out, so as I can actually 'help out' David -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to mysql-dfsg-5.1 in ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/666383 Title: package mysql-server-5.1 5.1.41-3ubuntu12.6 failed to install/upgrade: [SRU] infinite loop in /etc/init/mysql.conf if mysqld is not running -- 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
