MYSQL.SERVER(1)		    MariaDB Database System	       MYSQL.SERVER(1)

NAME
       mysql.server - MariaDB server startup script

SYNOPSIS

       mysql {start|stop}

DESCRIPTION
       MariaDB distributions on	Unix include a script named mysql.server. It
       can be used on systems such as Linux and	Solaris	that use System
       V-style run directories to start	and stop system	services. It is	also
       used by the Mac OS X Startup Item for MariaDB.

       mysql.server can	be found in the	support-files directory	under your
       MariaDB installation directory or in a MariaDB source distribution.

       If you use the Linux server RPM package (MySQL-server-VERSION.rpm), the
       mysql.server script will	be installed in	the /etc/init.d	directory with
       the name	mysql. You need	not install it manually.

       Some vendors provide RPM	packages that install a	startup	script under a
       different name such as mariadbd.

       If you install MariaDB from a source distribution or using a binary
       distribution format that	does not install mysql.server automatically,
       you can install it manually.

       mysql.server reads options from the [mysql.server] and [mariadbd]
       sections	of option files. For backward compatibility, it	also reads
       [mysql_server] sections,	although you should rename such	sections to
       [mysql.server]&.

       mysql.server supports the following options.

          --basedir=path

	   The path to the MariaDB installation	directory.

          --datadir=path

	   The path to the MariaDB data	directory.

          --pid-file=file_name

	   The path name of the	file in	which the server should	write its
	   process ID. If not provided,	the default, "host_name.pid" is	used.

          --service-startup-timeout=file_name

	   How long in seconds to wait for confirmation	of server startup. If
	   the server does not start within this time, mysql.server exits with
	   an error. The default value is 900. A value of 0 means not to wait
	   at all for startup. Negative	values mean to wait forever (no
	   timeout).

          --use-mariadbd_safe

	   Use mariadbd_safe to	start the server. This is the default.

          --use-manager

	   Use Instance	Manager	to start the server.

          --user=user_name

	   The login user name to use for running mariadbd.
