1. check if /usr/local/mysql/data has mysql user and r/w privileges 2. if /usr/local/mysql/data doesn't exist You have to launch mysql_install_db 3. See the <your system>.err file in /usr/local/mysql/data

Hello Everyone,
I have been running MySQL on my Mac for almost a year now. suddenly I am unable to start the mysqld, I keep getting "mysqld ended" error.
------------------------------------------------------------------------ ---------------------------------
[psg:/usr/local/mysql] psgarcha% sudo ./bin/mysqld_safe &
[5] 703
[psg:/usr/local/mysql] psgarcha% Starting mysqld daemon with databases from /usr/local/mysql/data
030618 11:50:09 mysqld ended
[5] Done sudo ./bin/mysqld_safe
------------------------------------------------------------------------ ---------------------------------
Can u tell me how/ where to view the error logs on MAC OS JAGUAR...?
I have MySQL installed on my Win XP Pro Laptop as well and I am able to view the error log files within the 'data' dir. However when it comes to my Mac G4 , I am at a loss to understand why this happens ?
