Package: mysql-server Version: 4.0.24-10 This morning I upgraded mysql-server using apt-get on a box running debian-sarge 3.1. Since then, mysqld fails to start. The following messages appear in the syslog file:
May 29 10:02:39 mysqld_safe[18836]: started May 29 10:02:39 mysqld[18840]: mysqld got signal 11; May 29 10:02:39 mysqld[18840]: This could be because you hit a bug. It is also possible that this binary May 29 10:02:39 mysqld[18840]: or one of the libraries it was linked against is corrupt, improperly built, May 29 10:02:39 mysqld[18840]: or misconfigured. This error can also be caused by malfunctioning hardware. May 29 10:02:39 mysqld[18840]: We will try our best to scrape up some info that will hopefully help diagnose May 29 10:02:39 mysqld[18840]: the problem, but since we have already crashed, something is definitely wrong and this may fail.
