MySQL启动时报“The server quit without updating PID file”错误如何解决

这篇文章将为大家详细讲解有关MySQL启动时报"The server quit without updating PID file"错误如何解决，小编觉得挺实用的，因此分享给大家做个参考，希望大家阅读完这篇文章后可以有所收获。

很多童鞋在启动mysql的时候，碰到过这个错误，

首先，澄清一点，出现这个错误的前提是：通过服务脚本来启动mysql。通过mysqld_safe或mysqld启动mysql实例并不会报这个错误。

那么，出现这个错误的原因具体是什么呢？

哈哈，对分析过程不care的童鞋可直接跳到文末的总结部分~

总结

下面，来分析下mysql的服务启动脚本

首先，定义相关参数

basedir=datadir=# Default value, in seconds, afterwhich the script should timeout waiting# for server start. # Value here is overriden by value in my.cnf. # 0 means don't wait at all# Negative numbers mean to wait indefinitelyservice_startup_timeout=900# Lock directory for RedHat / SuSE.lockdir='/var/lock/subsys'lock_file_path="$lockdir/mysql"

其中，

basedir 指的二进制压缩包解压后所在的目录，譬如/usr/local/mysql。

datadir 指的是数据目录

service_startup_timeout=900 定义mysql服务启动的时间限制，如果在900s中没有启动成功，则该脚本会退出。

lockdir='/var/lock/subsys'

关于/var/lock/subsys，网上的解释如下，后续会用到。

总的来说，系统关闭的过程（发出关闭信号，调用服务自身的进程）中会检查/var/lock/subsys下的文件，逐一关闭每个服务，如果某一运行的服务在/var/lock/subsys下没有相应的选项。在系统关闭的时候，会像杀死普通进程一样杀死这个服务。

通过察看/etc/rc.d/init.d下的脚本，可以发现每个服务自己操纵时都会去查看/var/lock/subsys下相应的服务。

很多程序需要判断是否当前已经有一个实例在运行，这个目录就是让程序判断是否有实例运行的标志，比如说xinetd，如果存在这个文件，表示已经有xinetd在运行了，否则就是没有，当然程序里面还要有相应的判断措施来真正确定是否有实例在运行。通常与该目录配套的还有/var/run目录，用来存放对应实例的PID，如果你写脚本的话，会发现这2个目录结合起来可以很方便的判断出许多服务是否在运行，运行的相关信息等等。

判断basedir和datadir

# Set some defaultsmysqld_pid_file_path=if test -z "$basedir"then basedir=/usr/local/mysql bindir=/usr/local/mysql/bin if test -z "$datadir" then datadir=/usr/local/mysql/data fi sbindir=/usr/local/mysql/bin libexecdir=/usr/local/mysql/binelse bindir="$basedir/bin" if test -z "$datadir" then datadir="$basedir/data" fi sbindir="$basedir/sbin" libexecdir="$basedir/libexec"fi

其中，

mysqld_pid_file_path 指定pid文件的路径

-z string 判断字符串是否为空

如果basedir没有显示设置，则默认为/usr/local/mysql，这也是为什么很多mysql安装教程都推荐将mysql相关文件放到/usr/local/mysql下。

如果datadir没有显示设置，则默认为$basedir/data。

定义log_success_msg()和log_failure_msg()函数

首先，判断/lib/lsb/init-functions文件是否存在，如果存在，则使定义在init-functions文件中的所有shell函数在当前脚本中生效。

如果没有，则定义两个函数，一个用于打印成功日志，一个是打印错误日志。

在RHCS 6.7中，该文件并不存在，已被/etc/init.d/functions所替代。

## Use LSB init script functions for printing messages, if possible#lsb_functions="/lib/lsb/init-functions"if test -f $lsb_functions ; then . $lsb_functionselse log_success_msg() { echo " SUCCESS! $@" } log_failure_msg() { echo " ERROR! $@" }fi

传递参数

将第一个参数传递给mode，剩下的参数传递给other_args

PATH="/sbin:/usr/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin:$basedir/bin"export PATHmode=$1 # start or stop[ $# -ge 1 ] && shiftother_args="$*" # uncommon, but needed when called from an RPM upgrade action   # Expected: "--skip-networking --skip-grant-tables"   # They are not checked here, intentionally, as it is the resposibility   # of the "spec" file author to give correct arguments only.case `echo "testing\c"`,`echo -n testing` in *c*,-n*) echo_n= echo_c=  ;; *c*,*) echo_n=-n echo_c=  ;; *)  echo_n= echo_c='\c' ;;esac

解析配置文件中的参数

这个函数在脚本后面会涉及到。

主要涉及如下参数：--basedir，--datadir，--pid-file，--service-startup-timeout。

parse_server_arguments() { for arg do case "$arg" in  --basedir=*) basedir=`echo "$arg" | sed -e 's/^[^=]*=//'`     bindir="$basedir/bin"   if test -z "$datadir_set"; then    datadir="$basedir/data"   fi   sbindir="$basedir/sbin"   libexecdir="$basedir/libexec"  ;;  --datadir=*) datadir=`echo "$arg" | sed -e 's/^[^=]*=//'`   datadir_set=1 ;;  --pid-file=*) mysqld_pid_file_path=`echo "$arg" | sed -e 's/^[^=]*=//'` ;;  --service-startup-timeout=*) service_startup_timeout=`echo "$arg" | sed -e 's/^[^=]*=//'` ;; esac done}

判断my_print_defaults的位置

首先，它判断当前路径下的bin目录中是否存在该可执行文件，如果不存在，则再判断$bindir（通常指的是$basedir/bin）目录下是否存在。

如果还是没有，则会判断/etc/my.cnf是否存在并且可读，如果是，则判断该配置文件中是否指定了basedir参数，

如果指定了，则取出该参数的值，并判断该值对应的目录中是否存在bin/my_print_defaults可执行文件

最后一步，如果在上述目录中实在没发现my_print_defaults文件，

索性就将print_defaults设置为"my_print_defaults"，寄希望于该命令在当前的PATH环境中。

# Get arguments from the my.cnf file,# the only group, which is read from now on is [mysqld]if test -x ./bin/my_print_defaultsthen print_defaults="./bin/my_print_defaults"elif test -x $bindir/my_print_defaultsthen print_defaults="$bindir/my_print_defaults"elif test -x $bindir/mysql_print_defaultsthen print_defaults="$bindir/mysql_print_defaults"else # Try to find basedir in /etc/my.cnf conf=/etc/my.cnf print_defaults= if test -r $conf then subpat='^[^=]*basedir[^=]*=\(.*\)$' dirs=`sed -e "/$subpat/!d" -e 's//\1/' $conf` for d in $dirs do  d=`echo $d | sed -e 's/[  ]//g'`  if test -x "$d/bin/my_print_defaults"  then  print_defaults="$d/bin/my_print_defaults"  break  fi  if test -x "$d/bin/mysql_print_defaults"  then  print_defaults="$d/bin/mysql_print_defaults"  break  fi done fi # Hope it's in the PATH ... but I doubt it test -z "$print_defaults" && print_defaults="my_print_defaults"fi

查找默认的配置文件

-r file 如果文件可读，则为真

## Read defaults file from 'basedir'. If there is no defaults file there# check if it's in the old (depricated) place (datadir) and read it from there#extra_args=""if test -r "$basedir/my.cnf"then extra_args="-e $basedir/my.cnf"else if test -r "$datadir/my.cnf" then extra_args="-e $datadir/my.cnf" fifi

解析配置文件中的参数

my_print_defaults的用法如下：

my_print_defaults --defaults-file=example.cnf client mysql

即读取配置文件中，client和mysql部分的参数配置，

具体在本脚本中，是读取mysqld，server，mysql_server，mysql.server四个部分的配置参数。

parse_server_arguments `$print_defaults $extra_args mysqld server mysql_server mysql.server`

设置pid file的路径

-z string 判断字符串是否为空

如果--pid-file没有在读取到的配置文件中设置或者脚本刚开始的mysqld_pid_file_path参数没有设置，

则pid file默认设置在datadir下，以主机名.pid命名。

如果该参数设置了，还需要进一步判断

如果该参数中带有斜杠，则代表给定的值带有路径，可直接使用。

如果该参数中没带路径，则代表给定的值只是pid的文件名，可将其设在datadir下。

## Set pid file if not given#if test -z "$mysqld_pid_file_path"then mysqld_pid_file_path=$datadir/`hostname`.pidelse case "$mysqld_pid_file_path" in /* ) ;; * ) mysqld_pid_file_path="$datadir/$mysqld_pid_file_path" ;; esacfi

服务脚本start选项

首先，切换到$basedir中

其次，判断$basedir/bin中的mysqld_safe是否是可执行文件，如果是，则启动mysqld实例，如果不是，则报错退出。

那么，启动流程又是如何实现的呢？

首先，执行$bindir/mysqld_safe --datadir="$datadir" --pid-file="$mysqld_pid_file_path" $other_args >/dev/null 2>&1 &命令，启动mysqld实例。

注意到没有，mysqld_safe其实是在basedir中执行的，包括mysql初始化脚本mysql_install_db，也建议在basedir中执行，具体可参考：

分析MariaDB初始化脚本mysql_install_db

然后通过wait_for_pid函数进行判断，具体可见下文对于wait_for_pid函数的分析

判断完毕后，

查看$lockdir目录是否可写，可写的话，则在目录上创建一个文件。

case "$mode" in 'start') # Start daemon # Safeguard (relative paths, core dumps..) cd $basedir echo $echo_n "Starting MySQL" if test -x $bindir/mysqld_safe then  # Give extra arguments to mysqld with the my.cnf file. This script  # may be overwritten at next upgrade.  $bindir/mysqld_safe --datadir="$datadir" --pid-file="$mysqld_pid_file_path" $other_args >/dev/null 2>&1 &  wait_for_pid created "$!" "$mysqld_pid_file_path"; return_value=$?  # Make lock for RedHat / SuSE  if test -w "$lockdir"  then  touch "$lock_file_path"  fi  exit $return_value else  log_failure_msg "Couldn't find MySQL server ($bindir/mysqld_safe)" fi ;;

wait_for_pid函数

在利用mysqld_safe启动mysql实例后，会调用该参数

wait_for_pid created "$!" "$mysqld_pid_file_path"; return_value=$?

其中$!在shell中用于获取最后运行的后台Process的PID，具体在本例中，是mysqld_safe进程的pid。

因为第一个参数是created，所以会执行test -s "$pid_file_path" && i='' && break命令。

-s file 如果文件的长度不为零，则为真

该命令的意思是如果pid文件存在，则将变量i设置为空，并退出while循环。

然后执行如下判断，

if test -z "$i" ; then log_success_msg return 0 else log_failure_msg return 1 fi

如果$i为空，则打印成功日志，并退出脚本，很显然，在pid文件存在的情况下，会将变量i设置为空。

再来看看pid文件不存在的情况

首先，会判断$pid是否不为空（即if test -n "$pid"）

如果不为空，则代表在执行完mysqld_safe后，已经捕捉到了该进程的pid。

在这种情况下，进一步通过kill -0 "$pid"确认该进程是否存在。

kill -0就是不发送任何信号,但是系统会进行错误检查,所以经常用来检查一个进程是否存在,当进程不存在时, kill -0 pid会返回错误

如果该进程存在，则不执行任何操作，直接跳到如下操作

echo $echo_n ".$echo_c"i=`expr $i + 1`sleep 1

将变量i加1，并sleep 1s。

然后，继续while循环，之所以这样做，是考虑到mysqld_safe已经执行，但是mysqld实例还在启动过程中，还没创建好pid文件。

一直到$1达到$service_startup_timeout定义的时长。

如果在while循环的过程中，通过kill -0 "$pid"判断到进程已经不存在了，

则会再判断一次，如果这次判断的结果依旧是pid file不存在，且进程不存在，则会执行

log_failure_msg "The server quit without updating PID file ($pid_file_path)."

这就是大名鼎鼎的"The server quit without updating PID file"的由来。

wait_for_pid () { verb="$1"   # created | removed pid="$2"   # process ID of the program operating on the pid-file pid_file_path="$3" # path to the PID file. i=0 avoid_race_condition="by checking again" while test $i -ne $service_startup_timeout ; do case "$verb" in  'created')  # wait for a PID-file to pop into existence.  test -s "$pid_file_path" && i='' && break  ;;  'removed')  # wait for this PID-file to disappear  test ! -s "$pid_file_path" && i='' && break  ;;  *)  echo "wait_for_pid () usage: wait_for_pid created|removed pid pid_file_path"  exit 1  ;; esac # if server isn't running, then pid-file will never be updated if test -n "$pid"; then  if kill -0 "$pid" 2>/dev/null; then  : # the server still runs  else  # The server may have exited between the last pid-file check and now.   if test -n "$avoid_race_condition"; then   avoid_race_condition=""   continue # Check again.  fi  # there's nothing that will affect the file.  log_failure_msg "The server quit without updating PID file ($pid_file_path)."  return 1 # not waiting any more.  fi fi echo $echo_n ".$echo_c" i=`expr $i + 1` sleep 1 done if test -z "$i" ; then log_success_msg return 0 else log_failure_msg return 1 fi}

服务脚本stop选项

首先，判断pid文件的长度是否不为零。

-s file 如果文件的长度不为零，则为真

此时，会通过pid文件获取mysqld进程的pid，注意，不是mysqld_safe进程的pid

然后，判断mysqld进程是否在正常运行，

如果是，则通过kill $mysqld_pid的方式来关闭mysqld进程

杀死进程最安全的方法是单纯使用kill命令，不加修饰符，不带标志。

标准的kill命令通常会终止有问题的进程，并把进程的资源释放给系统。然而，如果进程启动了子进程，只杀死父进程，子进程仍在运行，因此仍消耗资源。为了防止这些所谓的"僵尸进程"，应确保在杀死父进程之前，先杀死其所有的子进程。

然后，调用wait_for_pid函数进行判断，其实，wait_for_pid函数中设置avoid_race_condition变量的目的是为了stop选项，确实有可能出现，mysqld是在检查pid file之后，检查进程是否存活之前退出的。

如果mysqld进程没有正常运行，在会打印"MySQL server process #$mysqld_pid is not running!"信息，并删除pid文件。

如果在执行stop的时候，判断pid文件的长度为0，则会打印"MySQL server PID file could not be found!"信息。

所以，在pid文件不存在的情况下，通过服务脚本执行stop选项并不会关闭mysqld进程，这个时候，就可通过kill $mysqld_pid的方式来关闭mysqld进程。

'stop') # Stop daemon. We use a signal here to avoid having to know the # root password. if test -s "$mysqld_pid_file_path" then  mysqld_pid=`cat "$mysqld_pid_file_path"`  if (kill -0 $mysqld_pid 2>/dev/null)  then  echo $echo_n "Shutting down MySQL"  kill $mysqld_pid  # mysqld should remove the pid file when it exits, so wait for it.  wait_for_pid removed "$mysqld_pid" "$mysqld_pid_file_path"; return_value=$?  else  log_failure_msg "MySQL server process #$mysqld_pid is not running!"  rm "$mysqld_pid_file_path"  fi  # Delete lock for RedHat / SuSE  if test -f "$lock_file_path"  then  rm -f "$lock_file_path"  fi  exit $return_value else  log_failure_msg "MySQL server PID file could not be found!" fi ;;

服务脚本restart选项

首先，先执行stop操作，如果stop操作成功的话，则继续执行start操作。

如果stop操作失败的话，则会输出"Failed to stop running server, so refusing to try to start."信息，并退出脚本。

 'restart') # Stop the service and regardless of whether it was # running or not, start it again. if $0 stop $other_args; then  $0 start $other_args else  log_failure_msg "Failed to stop running server, so refusing to try to start."  exit 1 fi ;;

服务脚本reload选项

首先，判断pid文件的长度是否为0，如果不为0，则将该文件中的值设置为mysqld_pid变量的值。

然后对该进程执行kill -HUP操作。

kill -HUP pid

pid 是进程标识。如果想要更改配置而不需停止并重新启动服务，请使用该命令。在对配置文件作必要的更改后，发出该命令以动态更新服务配置。

根据约定，当您发送一个挂起信号（信号 1 或 HUP）时，大多数服务器进程（所有常用的进程）都会进行复位操作并重新加载它们的配置文件。

如果pid文件的长度为0，则输出"MySQL PID file could not be found!"。

 'reload'|'force-reload') if test -s "$mysqld_pid_file_path" ; then  read mysqld_pid < "$mysqld_pid_file_path"  kill -HUP $mysqld_pid && log_success_msg "Reloading service MySQL"  touch "$mysqld_pid_file_path" else  log_failure_msg "MySQL PID file could not be found!"  exit 1 fi ;;

服务脚本status选项

首先，判断pid文件长度是否为0，如果不是，则读取该文件中的值，并判断pid对应的进程是否运行正常，

如果运行正常，则输出"MySQL running"

如果不正常，则输出"MySQL is not running, but PID file exists"

如果pid文件的长度为0，则试图通过mysqld的启动命令来获取其pid，

这个时候，可能存在一个mysqld程序启动了多个实例，这会导致pid_count=`echo $mysqld_pid | wc -w`大于1。

这个时候，会输出"Multiple MySQL running but PID file could not be found"信息，并退出脚本。

如果mysqld_pid为空，则会继续判断"$lock_file_path"是否存在，如果存在，

则会输出"MySQL is not running, but lock file ($lock_file_path) exists"信息。

如果"$lock_file_path"不存在，则会输出"MySQL is not running"信息。

如果mysqld_pid等于1，则会输出"MySQL is running but PID file could not be found"信息。

 'status') # First, check to see if pid file exists if test -s "$mysqld_pid_file_path" ; then   read mysqld_pid < "$mysqld_pid_file_path"  if kill -0 $mysqld_pid 2>/dev/null ; then   log_success_msg "MySQL running ($mysqld_pid)"  exit 0  else  log_failure_msg "MySQL is not running, but PID file exists"  exit 1  fi else  # Try to find appropriate mysqld process  mysqld_pid=`pidof $libexecdir/mysqld`  # test if multiple pids exist  pid_count=`echo $mysqld_pid | wc -w`  if test $pid_count -gt 1 ; then  log_failure_msg "Multiple MySQL running but PID file could not be found ($mysqld_pid)"  exit 5  elif test -z $mysqld_pid ; then   if test -f "$lock_file_path" ; then    log_failure_msg "MySQL is not running, but lock file ($lock_file_path) exists"   exit 2  fi   log_failure_msg "MySQL is not running"  exit 3  else  log_failure_msg "MySQL is running but PID file could not be found"  exit 4  fi fi ;;

服务脚本其它选项

如果脚本的第一个参数不是上述几个选项，则会输出Usage信息。

 *)  # usage  basename=`basename "$0"`  echo "Usage: $basename {start|stop|restart|reload|force-reload|status} [ MySQL server options ]"  exit 1 ;;

至此，mysql的服务脚本分析完毕~

总结

在通过服务脚本启动mysql的过程中，报"The server quit without updating PID file"错误，有两个条件

首先，pid文件不存在

其次，通过kill -0 $pid检查到进程并不存在

这个时候，只能通过mysql数据库的错误日志来定位。

服务脚本如果不做任何调整的话，默认的basedir是/usr/local/mysql，datadir是/usr/local/mysql/data

如果自己的mysql服务均不是默认路径，

则需要在该脚本中显式设置

经测试，需设置如下几处：

1. 设置basedir和添加conf变量

其中，conf指的是mysqld的配置文件，建议配置文件中显式指定basedir和datadir的值。

在这里，datadir可不设置，因为datadir可通过配置文件来获取。

但是basedir必须要指定，因为要首先根据basedir来判断my_print_deefauts命令

basedir=/usr/local/mysql-advanced-5.6.23-linux-glibc2.5-x86_64datadir=conf=/usr/local/mysql-advanced-5.6.23-linux-glibc2.5-x86_64/my_3308.cnf

2. 第256行，添加extra_args=" -c $conf"

extra_args=" -e $basedir/my.cnf.bak"if test -r "$basedir/my.cnf"then extra_args="-e $basedir/my.cnf"else if test -r "$datadir/my.cnf" then extra_args="-e $datadir/my.cnf" fifiextra_args=" -c $conf"

3. 修改285行mysqld_safe的启动参数

将

 $bindir/mysqld_safe --datadir="$datadir" --pid-file="$mysqld_pid_file_path" $other_args >/dev/null 2>&1 &

修改为，

  $bindir/mysqld_safe --defaults-file="$conf" --datadir="$datadir" --pid-file="$mysqld_pid_file_path" $other_args >/dev/null 2>&1 &

主要是添加了--defaults-file选项
