Hello.
Unfortunately I could give suggestion only about your second question. Is it possible that /var/log/mysql/error.log created by mysqld_safe (you're specifying it with --log-error command line option) and /usr/local/mysql/var/yuda2.err is created by mysqld process if it founds problems before applying location of error log to it's internal variable? Specify log-error = /var/log/mysql/error.log in your configuration file, and check that MySQL Server actually reads this file.
