[15:22] <dorgan> how do i disable mysql from starting up on lucid?
[15:22] <tiemonster> remove the init.d script
[15:22] <dorgan> thats it?
[15:22] <tiemonster> I would think so
[15:23] <tiemonster> that would prevent it from starting the daemon at startup
[15:24] <mhall119> yeah, I don't think it's using upstart, so that should do it
[15:25] <raubvogel> I could swear mysql was using upstart in lucid since you can do "start mysql"
[15:29] <tiemonster> be safe, run `apt-get remove mysql` ;-)
[16:17] <mhall119> --purge too
[16:42] <raubvogel> I thought dorgan wanted to have the mysql server around but only running when needed
[16:42] <dorgan> yup
[16:42] <dorgan> i dont want to remove mysql
[16:42] <dorgan> just stop it from automatically starting
[16:43] <tiemonster> did you try removing the init script?
[16:43] <raubvogel> dorgan, is there a mysql-something file in /etc/init?
[16:43] <dorgan> yeah i removed it
[16:43] <tiemonster> and?
[16:44] <raubvogel> dorgan, I would not have removed it; you just have to edit it
[16:44] <raubvogel> Same goes for the one in /etc/init.d, if there is one there.
[16:44] <raubvogel> Well, that one you can actually tell it to stop trying to start it. But stop it when you shutdown/reboot
[16:45] <tiemonster> yep
[16:45] <raubvogel> it would be a bit of a drag if you find out you rebooted without stopping the mysql server
[16:46] <tiemonster> hehe
[16:46] <raubvogel> So I would tell those scripts "do not start this, bitch! But if it is running and you are shutting down, stop it."
[16:46] <tiemonster> now there's an idea for a Linux shell...
[16:47] <dorgan> its ok i removed, the file from /etc/init.d     not  a biggie if i need the file back i can get it from the other db box
[21:35] <shadowchaser> hello all how is everyone today

[22:07] <zoopster> hey shadowchaser doing well thanks...how are you?
