I'm having a problem starting the mysqld. I'm running 3.23.51 on Mac OS X 10.1.5 and have a startup script which confirms on boot that it has started but doesn't.
I've tried starting manually from the CLI but no luck. I looked in localhost.err and found: 030323 9:48:21 /usr/local/mysql-3.23.51/bin/mysqld: Can't create/write to file '/usr/local/mysql-3.23.51/data/localhost.pid' (Errcode: 13) 030323 9:48:22 /usr/local/mysql-3.23.51/bin/mysqld: Can't find file: './mysql/host.frm' (errno: 13) 030323 9:48:22 /usr/local/mysql-3.23.51/bin/mysqld: Error on delete of '/usr/local/mysql-3.23.51/data/localhost.pid' (Errcode: 13) 030323 09:48:22 mysqld ended According to the O'Reilly `MySQL Reference Manual' it seems that the daemon may have been damaged but offers no real clue as how to fix it. One other very odd aspect is that on OS X you create a mysql user in Sys Prefs and I noticed, upon reboot, that this user had disappeared from the pref panel. I re-created but to no avail. Any help at all on this would be gratefully appreciated.
