After updating to 5.3 MySQL won't start at boot time. I read UPDATING and it says to include a line in /etc/rc.conf. But even after adding that line: # grep mysql /etc/rc.conf mysql_enable="YES" It still won't start up on its own after I reboot. However doing: # /usr/local/bin/mysqld_safe --user=mysql --datadir=/var/db/mysql --pid-file=/var/db/mysql/my_hostname.pid Works just fine (which I assume is what the startup script should do). Any pointers as to why this isn't working as it should? Vonleigh Simmons <http://illusionart.com/>;
