Look at the script - /usr/local/etc/rc.d/mysql-server - for clues.
It appears to be non-standard. Did you modify it?

root@svr:/usr/home/wash # service mysql-server stop
Stopping mysql.
Waiting for PIDS: 29087.
root@svr:/usr/home/wash # service mysql-server start
Starting mysql.

I don't see what you are seeing on my server.

Also, I thought that to backup MySQL DBs, you need to have the service
running, then do:

MySQL -uroot -pmypassword DBNAME > DBNAME.sql #To backup a single DB

OR

mysqldump -uroot -pmypassword --all-databases > mysql_backup.sql

If you are stopping the service and just copy over the directory that
contains the DBs files, you are doing it wrong!
