OK. Everything was up and running thanks to what Lenz suggested earlier. I was even able to connect to the server using JDBC from the local machine.

But then the Java connection, for no apparent reason, stopped working. Java apps would just stall without ever connecting, but I could still connect using the mysql command.

I restarted my computer and now I get this error in the error log when I try to start the mysql server:

030331 18:43:27 mysqld started
030331 18:43:27 Can't start server: Bind on TCP/IP port: Address already in use
030331 18:43:27 Do you already have another mysqld server running on port: 3306
?
030331 18:43:27 Aborting


030331 18:43:27 /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqld: Shutdown Complete

030331 18:43:27 mysqld ended


But, when I try connecting using mysql -u tobryan1 -p (tobryan1 is my user name, and it worked before), I get


ERROR 2002: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2)

Help! If anybody has any idea how to fix this, I'd appreciate it.

TIA,
Todd
