How to Start/Restart/Stop the mysqld Service

Written by Richi González Thursday, 22 September 2011

Hello,

I have written an article on how to start/restart/stop the httpd service, and decided to write another one for the mysqld service. You will need SSH root access.
Difficulty level: Easy

1. Establish a SSH connection and login as a root user.

The commands are as follows:

Start it:

/etc/init.d/mysqld start
OR
service mysqld start

Restart it:

/etc/init.d/mysqld restart
OR
service mysqld restart

Stop it:

/etc/init.d/mysqld stop
OR
service mysqld stop

2. Execute any of the needed commands, if one does not work, try the other one.

That is all! If you need an article on how to start/restart/stop any other service, please let me know!

Anything else, do not hesitate to contact me

Best Regards,
