MySQL sometimes doesnt start.
Posted: 22. November 2004 04:33
I'm using XAMPP 1.4.9a on MEPIS 2004.04.
When I start XAMPP from a console window with the command "/opt/lampp/lampp start", everything starts up ok.
But I created a menu shortcut that executes that command. When I use that shortcut, Apache always starts, but sometimes MySQL doesn't start. When that happens, using the shortcut a second time seems to get MySQL to start.
Can you think of any reason for that? Do you think adding a time delay, e.g. "sleep 5", in the lampp script before starting MySQL might help?
Or if you have any suggestions on how I might diagnose the problem, that would be helpful.
