Proper way to shutdown MySql
Posted: 25. November 2013 22:54
What is the proper way to shutdown MySql? I'm not running it as a service, so I used the Start/Stop buttons in the Xampp CP 3.2.1, but I noticed the following error message in the MySql log the next time I started :
I read somewhere (can't find it now, though) that xampp just kills the mysql process, rather than using mysqladmin to do a proper shutdown. Is that true? I guess I need some reassurance that the Stop button in the control panel is not going to cause me problems.
