I'm trying without success to set mysql to start automatically (mysql 5.6 on RHEL6.4) When I run "service --status-all" after server (redhat) restart it always shows "MySQL is not running, but lock file /var/lock/subsys/mysqld[FAILED]

If I will run manually service mysql restart\start it will work.

I added mysql to chkconfig as follow: chkconfig --add mysql chkconfig mysql on

[root@istahuins09 ~]# chkconfig mysql --list
mysql           0:off   1:off   2:on    3:on    4:on    5:on    6:off

I also tried to remove and add again to chkconfig using --del chkconfig --del mysql

service mysql status

Shows: MySQL is not running, but lock file (/var/lock/subsys/mysql[FAILED]

I tried to reinstall from scratch (redhat and mysql) and after clean install:

  1. The service mysql did not work (manually and automatically).
  2. I recreate /etc/init.d/mysql as a link to mysql.server and now the service may start manually.
  3. The service still refuse to start after server boot.

  • The environment (PATH, environ vars, etc) in the startup process is different than these items in your path. It will be your job to find the problematic vars, missing items in the path and address them.

You need to configure the daemon which is called mysqld. You are trying to configure the client to run as a daemon on startup.

chkconfig mysqld on

service mysqld start

  • I did as mentioned in documentation cp /usr/share/mysql/mysql.server /etc/init.d/mysql.

  • cp /usr/share/mysql/mysql.server /etc/init.d/mysql chmod +x /etc/init.d/mysql chkconfig --add mysql chkconfig --level 345 mysql on service mysql start There server start when running manually but doesn't when restarting redhat. I tried to do chkconfig on mysqld but when doing chkconfig --add mysqld it refused to add it as mysqld does not support chkconfig.
