When trying to start a freshly installed MySQL (first time), and then
trying to run the daemon, I get these messages in the error.log ...
000822 10:31:04  mysqld started
000822 10:31:04  Can't start server : Bind on unix socket: Permission denied
000822 10:31:04  Do you already have another mysqld server running
                        on socket: /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock ?
000822 10:31:04  Aborting
000822 10:31:05  mysqld ended

I think this is a permission problem with creating the *socket*, but which
files or config files affect sockets ?

# ls -alF
total 6
drwxr-x---    4 mysql    root         1024 Aug 10 13:38 ./
drwxr-x---   12 root     root         1024 Aug 13 01:01 ../
-rw-r-----    1 mysql    root         1638 Aug 22 10:31 myip.here.com.err
drwx--x---    2 mysql    root         1024 Aug 10 13:38 mysql/
drwxr-x---    2 mysql    root         1024 Aug 10 13:38 test/


Thanks... Dan.
