Not that this is really important, but if you can upgrade to a newer version of MySQL, that might be your quickest road to getting it working. I had this problem to and ultimately upgrade the server to the latest RedHat rpm which I think was 3.23.49-3. If you want (or can) go down this road then it's really easy. Search archives for a message from me in December 2002 where I list what I did to copy the data over to the new server without dumping. When I sent my initial message about my 2013 failure, I never got a response. Google turned up some suggestions but none that really match my problem. I found the shortest road to recovery was upgrading.
