    Hi Folks

    I bought a minix u9-h and have set up Kodi client on it.

    I have installed Ubuntu desktop on backend media server and created an NFS share on this along with a MYSQL database so I can sync the content with further client boxes in future.

    The share worked okay, however when I reboot the server I cannot connect to the share.

    I debugges it and discovered if I manually restart the service in Ubuntu for NFS everything is okay.

    My question is does Ubuntu auto starts the NFS service on start up or do I need to add configuration for this.

    Perhaps the issue is related to the drive I have on the share mapping across.

    Any thoughts ?

    Next time it restarts check that msql is really not starting
    ps -ef | grep mysql

    If there is more than one line there, it's started and there's some other problem.

    Ubuntu now uses systemd / systemctl instead of init for startup so you might find useful info here:
    https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/using-systemd.html#systemd-mysql-configuration
    Scroll down a bit to Ubuntu / Debian

    It might be a bit heavy going, but you might find better keywords to Google
    Actually try:

    find /etc/ -name 'mysql*'
    To see what config files are there already
