[solved]Delay mySQL startup by 30 secs in /etc/rc.conf

Basically I use wpa_supplicant and it takes a a bit to connect, by the time /etc/rc.conf gets to the mysql startup service, mySQL cannot bind to my servers address,

This is because wpa_supplicant probably hasn't got an IP address yet, so mySQL fails to start at bootup every time, however right after the boot I can log in and manually boot it just fine.

Any Ideas?  Maybe delay the mysql by 30-40 seconds at boot? Anyone know how?

You could put:

/etc/rc.d/mysqld start

in /etc/rc.local

Thanks for the reply but I solved this by removing the @ before netprofiles, so that wpa_supplicant doesnt startup in the background, therefor everything else waits until wpa_supplicant is connected before it boots.

the question is why do you need networking support?  default is to skip-networking

Give what you have. To someone, it may be better than you dare to think.

Im connecting via, remote.  I have to be able to access mySQL away from my data center.
