There was a file /etc/mysql/my.cnf.migrated containing this text: # This file has been automatically moved from your previous # /etc/mysql/my.cnf, with just this comment added at the top, to maintain MySQL # operation using your previously customised configuration.
# To switch to the new packaging configuration for automated management of
# /etc/mysql/my.cnf across multiple variants:
#
# 1. Move your customisations from this file to /etc/mysql/conf.d/ and
# to /etc/mysql/<variant>.conf.d/ as appropriate.
# 2. Run "update-alternatives --remove my.cnf /etc/mysql/my.cnf.migrated"
# 3. Remove the file /etc/mysql/my.cnf.migrated
After
/etc/mysql# update-alternatives --remove my.cnf /etc/mysql/my.cnf.migrated
starting and stopping now works within seconds.
Please excuse my verbosity in the previous mails.
Best Regards
