Maybe you could explain what a "jail" is. In 20+ years doing systems work
I've never heard that term mean anything but "a place where criminals are

Subject: mysql in a jail

 

I have a system running FreeBSD 4.9 four jails. MySQL is running in two of
   

the
 

jails and I am trying to add it to a 3rd jail. Starting the server gets
   

the
 

message:

 040302 19:34:15  mysql started
 040302 19:34:15  Can't start server : Bind on unix socket: Permission
   

denied
 

 040302 19:34:15  Do you already have another mysqld server running on
   

socket:
 

                  /tmp/mysql.sock ?
 040302 19:34:15  Aborting
 040302 19:34:15  /usr/local/libexec/mysqld: Shutdown Complete
 040302 19:34:15  mysqld ended
The new jail was created by copying the file tree from a jail that had the
desired configuration and then doing clean-up as required. In response to
   

the
 

error I tried configuring mysqld to use a different port and socket file.
   

That
 

did not fix the problem. I had forgotten the other two mysql's are using
   

port
 

3306 and /tmp/mysql.sock.

I next removed mysql and its dependencies and reinstalled
   

mysql-server-4.0.16
 

using pkg_add. I am still getting the same error. At this point I think it
   

is a
 

jail problem with something I missed in clean-up but I do not know where
   

to look
 

next.

Having done all this, I recalled in installing the 2nd MySQL jail, it was
necessary to remove and reinstall mysql. In that instance the
   

re-installation
 

solved the problem.

Thanks for any ideas.
