Can confirm that a install from source works fine (following instruction on the MySQL site / docs)
Only bother is that when moving the automatic startup script into /etc/init.d/ I get a warning about the job now being in upstart, will this cause me any problems? Question is, how do the scripts differ? I understand that at the start there is a 'loop' that waits for the network interface to come up, and a few other things. I believe that the Mysql server startup script doesn't run until the system reaches 'run level 3'. I'm not fully conversant with the use of upstart (but I do understand the idea). If there is any further info I can give I will be happy to help. ps. I am also available to do an install from an RPM - if there is an 'upstart' version being packaged. Also as this seems to be a 'regression' I am happy to try the 'old' .deb installers so see which one of worked, eliminating untill we find where we all got it so horribly wrong, but I only seem able to find the 'current' version.
