Slackware 15.0+ roll to new rc.mysqld from Feb 18 2024 cannot connect to database
Hell-o. I was updating some new files from slackpkg updates and one of the new ones I rolled to was /etc/rc.d/rc.mysqld.new.

I rolled back to the original rc.mysqld and now I can connect to the database again. Code:
Anybody have any ideas how the new rc.mysqld broke mariadb? |
There is no new rc.mysqld. It hasn't changed since 2021, before the release of Slackware 15.0. But thanks for making me realize that rc.mysqld.new's timestamp was getting set to the current time of package installation, because I'd like to avoid that.
The file with size 2517 is the correct version since 3 years ago. I'd have to see a diff -u against the other file to have any more ideas about this. |
Thanks volkerdi for the quick response. Here is the diff -u

There's really not been significant change to that file since Slackware 13.37 or earlier.
That said, I think you need to comment out the SKIP= line in the new file, and then it should work. |
Okay, I rolled the rc.mysqld.new file to rc.mysqld, the 2517 size file, commented out the SKIP= line, and that did the trick. Once mysqld was stopped and restarted I was able to connect to the database and mythtv launched okay. Thanks for the assistance.

Just an FYI...after slackware updates this weekend a new /etc/rc.d/rc.mysqld.new file was added and it still has the SKIP= uncommented which as seen before causes issues with connected to the MariaDB. Should that be changed or something re-configured with the --skip-networking algorithm.

Ok. Thanks.
