Missing File: /etc/init.d/mysql or /etc/init.d/mysqld does not exist

Question

We are running mySQL on a Fedora Linux fc19.

I have a few corrupt event table errors like in this ticket: mysqldump error #1557: corrupt event table?

However, when I to to run step two, "/etc/init.d/mysql restart", restarting mysql bash returns the following: "/etc/init.d/mysql: No such file or directory"

phpMyAdmin and the websites appear to be running normally, which makes me believe that the "/etc/init.d/mysql" file is somewhere on the box. Is there some sort of search I can do to locate it? Would the pages still operate if it is missing?

Fedora 19 (which is way out of support - time to upgrade) is based on systemd and something along the line of systemctl restart mysqld.service should work (or service mysqld restart if you use the old style interface).

Haha, I actually had a comment "Yeah, I know that this is way out of date" but decided to remove it. The later worked, thanks! – James Robert Casey Jones Sep 21 '16 at 19:21
