Summary:                    server doesn't start anymore
Description: 
Since the upgrade on December 23 the installation of this package puts the
service in maintenance mode.

The log has the following line:

The server quit without updating PID file (/var/opt/csw/mysql5/host.pid).

After a cursory exploration I restricted the cause to the first line of
/opt/csw/bin/mysqld_safe which is:

#!/bin/./ash

Can you please correct and test this issue?

Thank you for this information. I should read the documentation...

Now, that I'm reading it, I'm a little bit flabbergasted, in
/opt/csw/share/doc/mysql5/README.CSW the following:

  * The preferred architecture can be set using mysql5_arch=<arch> in
csw.conf:
    the default is to use the kernel's.

confuses me as I'm running a 64 bit kernel.
