Mysqld.log shows this error: 021122 11:29:05 mysqld started 021122 11:29:06 Can't start server : Bind on unix socket: Permission denied 021122 11:29:06 Do you already have another mysqld server running on socket: /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock ?
---------------------------------------------------------- Note: I cannot even find a mysql.sock on this system, but have changed my.cnf to specify socket=/tmp/mysql.sock should the system ever get a chance to create it. And, have added port=3306 to the mysqld section. Furthermore, why is there not mysqld.pid file on this system? Is it not requried?
