I have just upgraded from dev-db/mysql-4.1.14 to dev-db/mysql-4.1.15-r1 (should I've tried dev-db/mysql-4.1.15-r30?). I need mysql-4.1.15 because of some upstream issues supposelly fixed in version 4.1.15. I have problems with the new init script. The start function is trying to parse my.cnf. The "replicate-wild-ignore-table" entries aren't parsed well. I have identified two issues: 1. I have entries like "replicate-wild-ignore-table = some_database.%". The init script is changing "some_database.%" to "some_database.\%". So mysql tries to ignore tables named "\%" instead of "%". In resume, mysql doesn't ignores all tables inside "some_database" as desired. 2. I have two "replicate-wild-ignore-table" entries but the new init script is ignoring my second "replicate-wild-ignore-table" entry.
please give a try to the attachments to bug #114621 . if something fail, please send the output of: #DEBUG=4 /etc/init.d/mysql stop start stop Thanks for your report
(In reply to comment #1) > please give a try to the attachments to bug #114621. Just did. The issue mentioned in this bug seems to be fixed with the attachments of bug #114621. Both start and stop worked fine. These scripts are now on use on one of my servers regulary. If any problem arrise, I'll let you know.
