This doesn't mean that mysql is running. It just means that gep mysql is
running, that is, grep can find itself sometimes, although sometimes it
does not. Secondly, you want the mysqld daemon to be running (notice the
d at the end). It is the client that is called mysql. Now try the
following:
[nzanella@tulip nzanella]$ ps aux | grep mysqld
mysql 587 0.0 2.8 11512 1332 ? S 17:45 0:00
/usr/sbin/mysqld
mysql 605 0.0 2.8 11512 1332 ? S 17:45 0:00
/usr/sbin/mysqld
mysql 606 0.0 2.8 11512 1332 ? S 17:45 0:00
/usr/sbin/mysqld
nzanella 1524 0.0 1.1 1364 524 pts/0 S 22:46 0:00 grep mysqld
[nzanella@tulip nzanella]$
For some reason three different processes are created on my system for
mysqld but that doesn't matter: this shows that the daemon/server is
up and running running.
I hope this helps,
Neil
