That’s right.
If you’ve tried using update-rc.d and sysv-rc-conf and STILL see mysql process starting up!
krish@shenron:~$ ls -ltr /etc/rc?.d | grep mysql krish@shenron:~$ ps aux | grep mysql | grep -v grep mysql 1172 0.0 1.1 177888 18996 ? Ssl Sep03 0:01 /usr/sbin/mysqld krish@shenron:~$ WTF!!!
Here’s where it matters and how to stop mysql from auto starting:
krish@shenron:~$ grep -A3 "start on" /etc/init/mysql.conf start on (net-device-up and local-filesystems and runlevel [2345]) stop on runlevel [016]
Just comment out the 3 lines for “start on” to make it
krish@shenron:~$ grep -A3 "start on" /etc/init/mysql.conf #start on (net-device-up # and local-filesystems # and runlevel [2345]) stop on runlevel [016]
Reboot and check:
krish@shenron:~$ sudo init 6
