-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I have a server with a faulty power supply that resets the server every 4/5 hours. While I wait for the supplier to change the PS, I am facing an issue with MySQL. When the system comes back on, mysqld script starts the daemon, but the connections via /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock don't work because MySQL doesn't delete and recreate the stale socket. Apart from editing /etc/init.d/mysqld to force the deletion of a stale socket are there any other way to solve this issue? Thank you un advance.
