[Nss-mysql-users] RE: [Nss-mysql-devel] Possible bug in nss-mysql 1.0

[Nicklas Bondesson]

Thanks alot for pointing this out. I have stopped pulling my hair out now
looking for a solution! ;)

I simply changed the line calling mysql_safe in my startup script (which btw
is the one that comes with the mysql source dist) to this:

/bin/su mysql -c "$bindir/mysqld_safe --datadir=$datadir
--pid-file=$pid_file >/dev/null 2>&1 &"

Thanks again!

Nicklas

How do you start mysqld?  Do you (or does the script you use) start mysqld
with --user (or -u)?  If this is the case, try changing that into a su -c
"mysqld (your args here without -u)" user.  It should fix your problem.  I
saw that problem before it seems to be a bug in mysqld or in the client
library which gets confused because mysqlf is half-started.

Guillaume.
