Start/Stop/restart MySQL database under Ubuntu Server

System environment: ubuntu server 12.10x64 (mysql comes with the system)

When we need to modify the MySQL configuration file my. cnf (my. ini in windows) for some settings, we need to restart MySQL after the modification.

The path of my. cnf file is/ect/mysql/my. cnf.

Waring: MySQL cannot be started if the file is configured incorrectly.

The following describes how to start, stop, and restart MySQL:
