mysqld process deleted in lsof
running lsof on the server today I came across that mysqld was showing up as deleted. Does anyone came across something like this before, or there is an explanation about this. Is it a bug?
lsof | grep /usr/sbin/mysqld
mysqld 2589 mysql txt REG 253,1 12681241 312101 /usr/sbin/mysqld (deleted)
Verify that in fact the mysqld binary is present on the filesystem:
ls -la /usr/sbin/mysqld
If it is there you probably upgraded mysql but did not restarted the daemon, hence the binary in memory was deleted and is now different from the one on the filesystem.
