Description:
The example given by "mysqld_multi --example" should be updated to mention "mysqld_safe",

[mysqld3]
mysqld     = /path/to/safe_mysqld/safe_mysqld
ledir      = /path/to/mysqld-binary/
mysqladmin = /path/to/mysqladmin/mysqladmin
socket     = /tmp/mysql.sock3
port       = 3308
pid-file   = /var/lib/mysql3/hostname.pid3
datadir    = /var/lib/mysql3
language   = /usr/share/mysql/swedish
user       = unix_user2

How to repeat:
Type this command

mysqld_multi --example

Suggested fix:
Change /path/to/safe_mysqld/safe_mysqld /path/to/mysqld_safe/mysqld_safe

Thank you for a problem report. Verified just as described with latest 5.0.42-BK:

openxs@suse:~/dbs/5.0> bin/mysqld_multi --example | grep safe
#   If you are using mysqld_safe to start mysqld, make sure that every
#   MySQL server has a separate pid-file. In order to use mysqld_safe
#   mysqld=/path/to/mysqld_safe
#   ledir (library executable directory), is an option that only mysqld_safe
mysqld     = /home/openxs/dbs/5.0/bin/mysqld_safe
mysqld     = /path/to/safe_mysqld/safe_mysqld

I think, this is really a (not very serious) bug, not a feature request.

      mysqld_multi still had mentions of safe_mysqld instead of mysqld_safe,
      as well as some unclear example paths. (Bug #28094)
      modified:
        scripts/mysqld_multi.sh
