During building (using DAB) and testing new OpenVZ containers sometimes we get the following in the logs of the freshly started Virtual Machine:
Code:
Starting MySQL database server: mysqld.
Checking for corrupt, not cleanly closed and upgrade needing tables..
Not starting internet superserver: no services enabled.
Starting Postfix Mail Transport Agent: postfix.
ERROR 1136 (21S01) at line 367: Column count doesn't match value count at row 3
Starting deferred execution scheduler: atd.
This occurs when a MySQL startup script failed (on Line 357 here), but it would be nice if the error causing filename was also included. Only guessing led me to this answer now.
