Usual procedure does not work:
aras@nebka:~/acis/userdata$ rid stop Killing control_daemon with pid 7937 /home/aras/acis/bin/rid: line 63: kill: (7937) - No such process Wait for control_daemon to exit................................. gave up waiting! Probably the daemon is busy. aras@nebka:~/acis/userdata$ rid start going to start RI daemon (/home/aras/acis/bin/control_daemon.pl) pid file /home/aras/acis/RI/daemon.pid is present aborting aras@nebka:~/acis/userdata$
All I can do, in classroom for the next hours.
The pid file is there but rid is not running. I just delete the pid file. Remember, we will upgrade mysql to version 5.1 at a controlled downtime around Xmas time. Cheers, Thomas Krichel http://openlib.org/home/krichel http://authorclaim.org/profile/pkr1 skype: thomaskrichel
