I keep killing mysql and it keeps restarting

any ideas?

Code:

bash-2.05a# ps aux | grep mysql

mysql    2605  0.0  0.0 11984 1796 pts/0    S    19:32  0:00 /usr/local/mysql/

mysql    2607  0.0  0.0 11984 1796 pts/0    S    19:32  0:00 /usr/local/mysql/

mysql    2608  0.0  0.0 11984 1796 pts/0    S    19:32  0:00 /usr/local/mysql/

root      2613  0.0  0.0  1760  588 pts/0    S    19:34  0:00 grep mysql

bash-2.05a#



bash-2.05a# killall -9 mysql

mysql: no process killed

bash-2.05a#

bash-2.05a# killall -9 mysqld

./safe_mysqld: line 280:  2605 Killed                  $NOHUP_NICENESS $ledir/$MYSQLD $defaults --basedir=$MY_BASEDIR_VERSION --datadir=$DATADIR $USER_OPTION --pid-file=$pid_file --skip-locking >>$err_log 2>&1

bash-2.05a#

Number of processes running now: 0

030505 19:35:14  mysqld restarted



bash-2.05a#

Which distro, by which means is it being started?

its a server in cali its on redhat, and its startingby

cd /usr/local/mysql/bin

./safe_mysqld &

You're saying that you always start the
service manually after a reboot? Or does
it by any chance get started (automagically
restarted?) by xinetd?

No i start it after it reboots

i just installed it earlier today

I see ... well, in this case:
look at the entire output from ps -Af
beginning at the end, and look for
a process that is started from your
mysql directory, other than the mysql
and mysqld :)

CHeers,

P.S.: I don't use MySQL (PostgreSQL user here ;})
so I can't check it for you...
