阿里云512M主机(CentOS 6.5)编译安装MySQL 5.6.21遇到的问题

kjut

运行mysql出现错误：
The server quit without updating PID file ...

原因：
内存太小

解决办法1：
使用下面my.cnf

# Example MySQL config file for small systems.
#
# This is for a system with little memory (<= 64M) where MySQL is only used
# from time to time and it's important that the mysqld daemon
# doesn't use much resources.
#
# MySQL programs look for option files in a set of
# locations which depend on the deployment platform.
# You can copy this option file to one of those
# locations. For information about these locations, see:
# http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/option-files.html
#
# In this file, you can use all long options that a program supports.
# If you want to know which options a program supports, run the program
# with the "--help" option.
# The following options will be passed to all MySQL clients
[client]
#password = your_password
#port    = @MYSQL_TCP_PORT@
#socket    = @MYSQL_UNIX_ADDR@
# Here follows entries for some specific programs
# The MySQL server

# Don't listen on a TCP/IP port at all. This can be a security enhancement,

# All interaction with mysqld must be made via Unix sockets or named pipes.
# Note that using this option without enabling named pipes on Windows
# (using the "enable-named-pipe" option) will render mysqld useless!

即使使用方法1解决了不能启动的问题，mysql还是会偶尔因为内存不足而down掉。

解决办法2：

阿里云的主机 不是默认自带swap的 ，增加swap，可以缓解实际内存小的问题，当然性能不如实际物理内存好，但起码不会出现mysql不能启动，或者down掉的情况。增加swap的方法：

1.进入目录 欢迎访问，鄙视采集！

cd /var/ http://www.zrblog.net

2.获取要增加的SWAP文件块(这里以1GB为例)

dd if=/dev/zero of=swapfile bs=1024 count=1038336 欢迎访问，鄙视采集！

3.创建SWAP文件

/sbin/mkswap swapfile

4.激活SWAP文件

/sbin/swapon swapfile

5.查看SWAP信息是否正确

/sbin/swapon –s

6.添加到fstab文件中让系统引导时自动启动

echo "/var/swapfile swap swap defaults 0 0" >>/etc/fstab
