hello monty et al
i'm trying to write an init script for maria and artix, which is using openrc
I got it to start up but the pid-file is a problem and I think that the command line options for mysqld_safe is not working. it doesnt create the specified pid file
Gentoo's OpenRC startup script does not use mysqld_safe because of such limitations. We have start-stop-daemon create the pidfile and call mysqld directly instead.
I was considering doing it like that but I realized that would mean rewritting a significant part of my.conf and combing through mysqld_safe and try to lock it down as much as monty already has... I trust monty :) If I do this, I will make it all complaint to the current architecture and build a package. I finally got it to work by making a /run/mariadb directory, chowon to maria.mariadb, and changing the pid file in my.conf and /etc/init.d/mariadb (using the start-stop-daemon) to /run/mariadb/mariadb.pid Seems to work for the time being.
Alternatively, OpenRC's supervise-daemon could be used if one wanted to have the server "always available", but I believe that a database crash should be investigated by an admin.
100% I'm on board with that.

MySQL and MariaDB attempt to create the pidfile as the user that mysqld is running as.. which may be a potential security issue if that user is compromised.
