WTF???! -----Original Message----- From: michael watson (IAH-C) Sent: 21 July 2005 14:39 To: mysql@lists.mysql.com Subject: More information from mysqld_safe Hi Now I'm having trouble getting the server started! Again, suse linux, mysql 4.1.12-Max. My MySQL server was running before, now it's not. I don't remember changing anything apart installing DBD::mysql from source... Anyway, data dir is /var/lib/mysql and all the ownerships are correct (owned by mysql, grouped by daemon) but I get the old familiar: Starting mysql daemon with databases from /var/lib/mysql 050721 14:36:05 mysqld ended Is there any way to get mysqld_safe to spit out a *bit* more information on why this is happening???
