RE: [cobalt-users] Cobalt MySql Problem

["Frank Surget" <fsurget@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks Gonzalo, but when I type that in from root I get:

sh: pidof: command not found

any suggestions (Sorry I'm new to Linux)
Frank





Try:

pidof mysqld

and then do a 'kill $number' where $number is the output from the pidof
command.

If you do 'pidof mysqld' again it should display no output. If it displays
the same numbers again then do a kill -9 and one number at a time.

HTH
