LP #1662759: PKG XtraDB Cluster Linux.Generic Tarball init script uses /usr/sbin/mysqld

Description

**Reported in Launchpad by James Brown last update 21-02-2017 10:03:28

The init script under support-files/mysql.server in the Linux.Generic tarball for Percona XtraDB Cluster 5.7.16 references /usr/sbin/mysqld instead of $bindir/mysqld, causing it to fail to start up when not in bootstrap-pxc mode.

A patch is attached which fixes the init script.

It appears that this issue is no longer being worked on, so we are closing it for housekeeping purposes. If you believe the issue still exists, please open a new ticket after confirming it's present in the latest release.

Suggested fix could be:

But the script has more issues:

1.


This works only on RedHat family. Debian/Ubuntu do not have such a file and actions they support are different.
2.

This would not work with 8.0 and 5.7 tarballs, because mysqld is installed into the bin directory. It should be $bindir.

Probably more outdated code exists in this script.

It is still valid.
