So I tested to see which one of these lines was causing mysql to throw a fit. But it appears to be when both of these configs are set. If I just run one config line (doesn't matter which) then there is no error. The error only appears when both of these are ran.</p><p style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 1.42857em; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;" data-mce-style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 1.42857em; color: #222222; font-family: verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;"><br data-mce-bogus="1"></p><p style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 1.42857em; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;" data-mce-style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; font-size: 14px; line-height: 1.42857em; color: #222222; font-family: verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;">We initially did not suspect lxc configs to be messing with mysql. But found this by setting up identical containers and doing the same tasks except for these lines. And our playbooks that start mysql don't need nfs so we aren't really blocking on this, but is an interesting issue. Does anybody have any idea why these would be preventing mysql from starting?</p><br></div><div><br></div><div data-marker="__SIG_PRE__">Jake Black<br>Associate System Administrator </div></div></body></html>
