Wow John... Sounds like you are in deep chit... Just kidding... Linux 6 doesn't say which distro it is, same with mysql 3, there are a bunch of mysql version3s out there.
Your problem... Log into as root then restart it. -----Original Message----- From: john [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, April 04, 2002 4:10 PM To: MySQL Lists Subject: Help. I have truly blundered. Please help with ignorance, I was in mysqld making some changes to a database. I run a Linux 6 box with MySQL 3 on it. I was logged in as user john, who has all access privelages to mysqld. John is not root, and I told mysql to stop. Well, mysql will not start again. What can I do? --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
