Annie, There should be a startup/stop script for mysql in /etc/init.d/ . Try running "/etc/init.d/mysql stop" After that, check for mysql with "ps -eaf |grep -i mysq" . If you find a process running, try to kill it with "kill -15 pid". You may have to use "kill -9 pid" if the processes wont go away with -15. You should be able to start mysql using "/etc/init.d/mysql start". Once the server is running, su to the mysql user and you should be able to log in to the database using "mysql". walt -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
