Have you tried:
mysql --verbose -u <username> -p<password>
To output more information

Just installed mysql on centos 6.2. When I try to start it with service I get:
#service mysqld start
MySQL Daemon failed to start.
Starting mysqld: [FAILED]
Nothing at all is written to the error log.
But if I start it with mysqld_safe it comes up and works fine.
Anyone know what could be going on here?
