How to automatically restart MySQL service

Here is instruction how to launch MySQL server after close unexpectedly.

1. Create /root/mysqlfix.sh file with next content:

#!/bin/bash
PATH=/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin
if [[ ! "$(/usr/sbin/service mysql status)" =~ "active (running)" ]]
then
    echo $(date -u) "MySQL service on the server has been stopped. It has now been restarted."
    sudo service mysql start
fi

2. Make it executable `chmod +x /root/mysqlfix.sh`
3. `sudo crontab -e`
4. Add crontab job. For 3 min period job will be next:

*/3 * * * * /root/mysqlfix.sh >> /var/log/mysqlfix.log 2>&1

/var/log/mysqlfix.log – log file
