The /etc/init.d/mysql script on one of my systems is complaning that it can't find /bin/dirname and /bin/basename. Line 24 of the script is this:
SELF=$(cd $(dirname $0); pwd -P)/$(basename $0) Both dirname and basename live in /usr/bin, not /bin. I know I could add a PATH statement to the init script, but this problem is my own doing and I'd like to fix it right. I "cross-graded" this system from 32-bit to 64-bit using this guide: www.ewan.cc/?q=node/90 It worked pretty well, but not perfectly. Some things got missed, like screen, ntp, and a couple other packages. I'm thinking that maybe another missing package is preventing the mysql init script from checking for /usr/bin/dirname. I can run '/etc/init.d/mysql start' from a terminal and it works fine, because it picks up the PATH associated with the terminal. So this is only a boot-time issue. So is there a package or a global setting somewhere that sets the PATH for init scripts? -Rob
