Thank you for keeping an eye on me. I ended up doing a reinstall of MySQL and have successfully connected.
I feel I have broken through a wall only to find an infinite number of walls yet to break through.
Such is the adventure I have chosen.
Be at peace,
Mark Depenbrock

If you got the error message during creation of the innoDB files (e.g. during install) you HAVE TO DELETE all files and restart the installation. There is no way around this!
However, if the file got corrupted after installation (e.g. you already used it for days) you can repair it (maybe someone changed the file permissions and/or ownership). You can change filepermissions on unix (linux) with chmod (type 'man chmod') on the command line, and change ownership with chown (man chown). You can delete files with 'rm' or 'unlink' (again, see the man pages for help)

Hello Egor,
You give me hope but... I attempted to set up permissions but it appears that I need to start up MySQL in order to do that. That brings me right back to my original problem of not being able to connect.
I am thinking of reinstalling MySQL to see if I missed something in the original install.
Any more suggestions please, I am at a loss.

Can not make mysql connection -
error log: 030708 08:53:48 mysqld started 030708 8:53:49 InnoDB: Operating system error number 13 in a file operation. InnoDB: See http://www.innodb.com/ibman.html for installation help. InnoDB: The error means mysqld does not have the access rights to InnoDB: the directory. InnoDB: File name ./ibdata1
The http://www.innodb.com/ibman.html stated:
If something goes wrong in an InnoDB database creation, you should delete all files created by InnoDB. This means all data files, all log files, the small archived logand in the case you already did create some InnoDB tables, delete also the corresponding .frm files for these tables from the MySQL database directories. Then you can try the InnoDB database creation again. It is best to start the MySQL server from a command prompt so that you see what is happening.
Question: Should I delete these files? and if so, how do you delete files from the command line?
No, you should set up permissions on the directory and file. Error 13 means "Permission denied".
