[TheNotary]

After looking over some of my own error logs on a different problem entirely, give this syntax a try:

mysql_service node['data']['database']['name'] do
  port '3306'
  version '5.6'
  initial_root_password node['data']['database']['root_rand_p']
  service_manager "systemd"
  action [:create, :start]
end

Perhaps this service_manager directive should be added to the supermarket documentation page?

You shouldn't need to specify the service manage. It's automatic unless you have a use case where you want to run sys-v on a systemd host. Just leave it out and things should work fine.
