#13647: mysql5 startup script is broken due to non-standard default command names -----------------------------------+---------------------------------------- Reporter: chris@improbable.org | Owner: ryandesign@macports.org Type: defect | Status: reopened Priority: Normal | Milestone: Port Bugs Component: ports | Version: 1.6.0 Resolution: | Keywords: -----------------------------------+---------------------------------------- Changes (by chris@improbable.org): * status: closed => reopened * resolution: invalid => Comment: It's also used by the launchd script users are encouraged to use at the end of the port install process; I only noticed any of this because mysql.server failed after a fresh install and launchctl load. It looks like the underlying problem was my.cnf having "basedir = /opt/local" but not having bindir set to /opt/local/lib/mysql5/bin - it defaults to $basedir/bin and that's broken by the non-standard binary names. If you'd prefer I'll open a new ticket requesting that MacPorts follow the standard naming convention to avoid breaking scripts. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/ticket/13647#comment:3> MacPorts </projects/macports> Ports system for Mac OS
