Hi All

Is anyone else running JIRA on ubuntu? I've followed the instructions here:

http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/JIRA/Setting+up+JIRA+Standalone+and+...

but when I reboot the server (to check that JIRA starts with the server) mysql is prevented form starting.

Any ideas?

Does MySQL write a log when it fails to start. That log may provide valuable clues as to why it is failing to start. I don't appear to have mysql installed but I'd start the search for that log filer in /var/log. HTH, Steve.
