If you like to run those commands on reboot/boot you can create a script and let Sys-V run it. To do so, create a script in /etc/init.d and call it anything you like. For example I’ll use runmysql.sh
In that script paste your lines and then save it. Then run the following command to get it running on boot:

update-rc.d <scriptname> defaults

So here it would be update-rc.d runmysql.sh defaults

But I suggest rather than trying to bypass the error with a script, to fix the error. You can use this script fix ofcourse temp. , but its better to try to find out why it doesn’t run at boot and fix this. Hope this will help you
