It's not starting normally. It's starting and dying, that's why it says mysqld ended. >but when i try to open the mysql console it sends me the message: > > >TrentCioran:/usr/local/mysql TrentCioran$ /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql > >ERROR 2002: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket > >'/tmp/mysql.sock' (2) > > >I've been searching for the mysql.sock file but it is missing. That's because mysqld isn't running. When you get mysqld running this problem will go away. The reason why it's not running should be noted in the error file, which should be: /usr/local/mysql/data/hostname.err This will have a notation where mysqld tried to start and then died. It seems like lots of people starting mysqld on OS X for the first time have a permission error on the data directory. It should be owned by mysql (the user already exists in both 10.2 and 10.3) and the group should be mysql. This problem is error number 13, but other error numbers will be explained by the perror command: /usr/local/mysql/bin/perror <errornumber> Good luck, Ware -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
