Public bug reported:
Hi.
There is several snippets in mysql init script, with 'log_end_msg 1',
call and some code after it.
'log_end_msg' returns it's argument as exit status. So 'log_end_msg 1'
will be intrepreted by bash as command that always fails. Option '-e' in
bash causes script to bail out in case of any error.
So in this fragment:
'stop')
.....
log_daemon_msg "Stopping MySQL database server" "mysqld"
if ! mysqld_status check_dead nowarn; then
set +e
shutdown_out=`$MYADMIN shutdown 2>&1`; r=$?
set -e
if [ "$r" -ne 0 ]; then
log_end_msg 1
All futher code will never being executed:
[ "$VERBOSE" != "no" ] && log_failure_msg "Error: $shutdown_out"
log_daemon_msg "Killing MySQL database server by signal" "mysqld"
killall -15 mysqld
...
Moreover, 'VERBOSE' variable is undefined.
So, I think this code is a little strange one. By the way, I also think
that killing all mysqld processes is not very good idea too (MySQL
Enterprise Monitor, for example, runs it's own mysqld instance that
shouldn't be killed by this init script)
I can send a patch for it if it will be helpful.
