Hi All, The other day, I tried connecting to mysql via the good old
>mysql -u me -p but I got a message saying that my mysql.sock is missing from the tmp folder. After checking the mailing list archive, I decided (well, guessed is the more appropriate word) that I could try to re-start the daemon: bin/safe_mysqld --log & But i get this error message: The file /usr/local/mysql/libexec/mysqld doesn't exist or is not executable Please do a cd to the mysql installation directory and restart this script from there as follows: ./bin/safe_mysqld. Now I'm really confused!! I tried entering a) ./bin/safe_mysqld and b) ./bin/safe_mysqld. (thinking that the period is part of the command...) but that didn't work. a) just gets me the same error message and b) isn't even a command! :-( Comments?
