Hi there!
mysql service don’t start from Yast services console (unknown error).
Is any configuration necessary in order to run mysql (mariaDB) on openSuse 12.3?

Thank you, in advance.

The output from the following will probably provide some good hints if not tell you exactly what/where the problem is

systemctl status mysql.service

Restart and try the “runlevel”. Sometimes after restart it works

Thank you, for answer.
This is the output:

ASIA:/home/adrian # systemctl status mysql.service
mysql.service - LSB: Start the MySQL database server
Loaded: loaded (/etc/init.d/mysql)
Active: inactive (dead)
CGroup: name=systemd:/system/mysql.service

I restarted the system, but the same thing happen.

output of following is required to check as to what packages for mariadb is installed

 zypper se -i maria*

also you can try

su -
systemctl restart mysql.service

or

su -
systemctl start mysql.service

I could start mariaDB: I just uninstalled mariaDB, then installed mysql server, then uninstalled mysql server, and installed mariaDB again.
Thank you very much.

Do you see any dependencies not getting installed ?
You can use this command to check through the packages

rpm -qa --last | less

It would be helpful if you find something and raise a bug here https://bugzilla.novell.com/

Sounds like the service hasn’t been set to start automatically on boot

Haven’t yet tested YAST to see if it works as expected, that should be one way to configure.

The following should work, too

systemctl enable mysql.service

HTH,

It certainly looks like a configuration/dependency error as I simply edited system services after installing 12.3 and mariaDB was there waiting to run.
