In 14.04, chroot support in upstart is turned off by default, to enable please boot with "--chroot-sessions" kernel cmdline option (which is passed to init) see $ man 8 init , for more details. After that "service mysql start" will work inside the chroot. However, instead of using chroots I strongly recommend for you to use lxc container, which is almost as lightweight as chroot, but has extra protections against affecting the host system and it has fully working upstart inside. -- Regards, Dimitri. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to the bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/430224 Title: init: support chroots To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-release-notes/+bug/430224/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
