title: mysql terminated with status 1?
body: <p>This morning I noticed that my mysql server was not running. A look at the logs and I found the information below. While it is troubling that the mysqld service ran out of memory and was killed, it is more troubling that mysql could not restart.</p>
  
  <p>Any ideas on why mysql could not respawn? How can I test to make sure that if the process is killed it will respawn?</p>
  
  <p>Thank you.</p>
