Oh dear -- this again. There was a lot of traffic on this list some
months ago when this first occurred. You need to update your MySQL
server port, and copy the mysql-server.sh-dist that provides to
mysql-server.sh
What happened is that a /bin/sh bug was fixed, and consequently
erroneous shell constructs like:
foo & && bar
now generate Syntax errors.
Cheers,
Matthew
