Folks,Not port, socket.
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.
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?
