I installed (as root) the standard rpms over a working 4.1.10a

upgrade. I had a look at it from webmin too and noticed that it was
looking for a startup script in /etc/rc.d/init.d/mysqld which seems to
have been renamed to plain mysql in 4.1.13 (though I can't find that
documented anywhere), so I copied it to mysql. Now I see the same error
as I got after the rpm -U:
Starting MySQL...................................[FAILED]
nothing is logged in mysql.err, and I can't find any other error
messages. Any ideas?

Is the mysql server running?
I only ask because I have the same "problem" on an FC1 installation,
"Starting MySQL......[FAILED]", but the server is up and running fine.
I'm thinking it has something to do with something the startup script is
looking for to confirm the server started that's not there. I just
haven't had the time or inclination to dig through it yet to find out. :)
