Hello, I just had a glance at your log-rotation file, and I think I might tell you about a possible improvement:
In the file "mysql-log-rotate" I came across the following test case: if test -n "`ps acx|grep mysqld`"; then /usr/bin/mysqladmin flush-logs fi I think this is a possible situation where a race condition could arise: Doing some "ps ax | grep <program> " myself I sometimes found the "grep" process to be listed as well. I canīt tell for sure what state the machine was in at that time, but I believe in times with high load this problem could happen... My suggestion to you is to use ps acx | grep mysqld | grep -v grep instead. -- Yours, Michael --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
