[Quoted] I have tried both using data files from a 5.7.27 release, as well as trying to use mysqld --initialize (and --initialize_insecure) to create a new mysql db and associated files. The mysqld process hangs at approximately the same location regardless, which appears to be just before binding the IP address and port. Received on Fri Oct 25 2019 - 01:25:59 CEST
