A few others did too. It seems to me that if RH's stand that an upgrade doesn't (or shouldn't?) restart a service then the mySQL upgrade is stoping a service improperly. I've done many a upgrade to mySQL via RPM and when 'manually' done the service remains running until it's restarted via 'service mysqld restart'. So maybe the bug in the mysql update is that it stops the service, not that it fails to restart it. Paul Pettit CTO and IS Manager Consistent Computer Bargains Inc. I've heard it said that the proof of lunacy is when you repeat the same steps expecting different results. I say it's proof that you're a Microsoft user. - comment by deshi777 on experts-exchange.com -- fedora-legacy-list@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-legacy-list
