title: MySQL 5.1 exit code documentation?
body: <p>Can someone point me at the docs for the termination codes for MySQL 5.1?</p>
  <p>I have a MySQL 5.1.41 installation on an Ubuntu server that seems to be crashing about every 90 seconds with the following message in syslog:</p>
  <blockquote>
  <p>init: mysql main precess terminated with status 2</p>
  <p>init: mysql main process ended, respawning</p>
  </blockquote>
  <p>Googling for MySQL and  &quot;termination code&quot;, &quot;termination status&quot;, &quot;exit code&quot;, or &quot;exit status&quot; yields nothing useful.   Apparently MySQL docs call this something different than what init is reporting.</p>
  <p>Anyone have a guess?</p>
