I was doing some testing with our development mysql server (4.1.x) and one of 
the databases died and wouldn't let me do anything not even read the tables in 
the database.  So I thought I would bring it down and start it back up.  I 
proceeded to use ./mysqladmin shutdown command which did what I wanted it to do 
and shutdown the server.  Now I can't seem to figure out how to bring it back 
up.  What is the command line I need to use?  

I've tried ./mysqld -start and I get the following error message.

$:/usr/local/mysql/bin $ ./mysqld -start 
060106 14:58:53 [Warning] Can't create test file

Thanks!
