I once had a similar problem, and copying one of the my.cnf sample files
from the support(?) directory to /etc/my.cnf actually solved it. It might
be worth the try...
What does a ps -ef excerpt say? Is the server running as mysql? In that
case, you could set the permissions back to 2775 or something; just so
that you don't forget as soon as the system is up and you go out
celebrating :-)
Anyway, good luck!
Sincerely,
Jan
