我在增加max_allowed_packet值
后试图重启我的“mysql”服务当我重启时，我收到了这条消息：
jm@dev:/etc/mysql$ /etc/init.d/mysql restart
Rather than invoking init scripts through /etc/init.d, use the service(8)
utility, e.g. service mysql restart
Since the script you are attempting to invoke has been converted to an
Upstart job, you may also use the stop(8) and then start(8) utilities,
e.g. stop mysql ; start mysql. The restart(8) utility is also available.
stop: Rejected send message, 1 matched rules; type="method_call", sender=":1.481" (uid=1000 pid=6732 comm="stop mysql ") interface="com.ubuntu.Upstart0_6.Job" member="Stop" error name="(unset)" requested_reply="0" destination="com.ubuntu.Upstart" (uid=0 pid=1 comm="/sbin/init")
对max_allowed_packet的更改似乎没有启动，所以我尝试了：
jm@dev:/etc/mysql$ sudo stop mysql
[sudo] password for jm:
mysql stop/waiting
jm@dev:/etc/mysql$ sudo start mysql
start: Job failed to start
我尝试检查日志文件是否有错误，但/var/log/mysql/mysql.log为空。
有关我如何解决此问题的任何建议？ 谢谢。

这是my.cnf的样子：
#
# The MySQL database server configuration file.
#
# You can copy this to one of:
# - "/etc/mysql/my.cnf" to set global options,
# - "~/.my.cnf" to set user-specific options.
#
# One can use all long options that the program supports.
# Run program with --help to get a list of available options and with
# --print-defaults to see which it would actually understand and use.
#
# For explanations see
# http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/server-system-variables.html
# This will be passed to all mysql clients
# It has been reported that passwords should be enclosed with ticks/quotes
# escpecially if they contain "#" chars...

权限不正确。 他们必须是：

在Ubuntu，askubuntu网站似乎已经回答了类似的问题。
https://askubuntu.com/questions/125686/mysql-fails-to-start-after-upgrade-installation-etc
还可以尝试在my.cnf中添加以下内容
default-character-set = utf8
default-collation = utf8_general_ci
似乎是https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mysql-5.5/+bug/958120
