Folks,

I am trying to start mysqld and when I do the deamon crashes.
mysqld.log has the following:

030919 14:25:06  mysqld started
030919 14:25:08  Can't start server : Bind on unix socket: Permission
denied
030919 14:25:08  Do you already have another mysqld server running on
socket: /usr/lib/mysql/mysql.sock ?
030919 14:25:08  Aborting

030919 14:25:08 /usr/libexec/mysqld: Shutdown Complete

030919 14:25:08 mysqld ended

which says to me that something is already listening on that port.

Not port, socket.

Acording to netstat nothing is running.  Does any one know what is going
on with this.

This is not a network issue.
Does the socket /usr/lib/mysql/mysql.sock exist?
Does mysql own /usr/lib/mysql, and all its files?
Is  /usr/lib/mysql world searchable?
Is /usr/lib/mysql/mysql.sock work writeable?
