Re: InnoDB restarts by itself every two hours!

[Travis Derouin]

I'm experiencing something similar, except it seems that mysqld is restarting more frequently than 2 hours and when it starts up, InnoDB reports the database was not shutdown properly.

Does this make sense at all? Is this a problem? And if so is there any way I can gather more information about it to debug it? I turned on the general log but didn't come across anything that looked suspicous.
