Working with Linux Servers and you often need to start/stop/restart services. Many a times we just restart the complete server to restart services. However, restarting the server for restarting services is not recommended and we can restart the services manually via commands as well. This small post is to explain how you can start/stop/restart MySQL server from command line on CentOS Server.
Stop MySQL Server
- # /etc/init.d/mysqld stop
Start MySQL Server
- # /etc/init.d/mysqld start
Restart MySQL Server
- # /etc/init.d/mysqld restart
Hope you find this small tip useful.
For start mysql automatically
chkconfig --level 345 mysqld on
