Help?, I installed 3.23.52 on a RedHat 7.3 machine. Everything was just fine until I rebooted later for another reason. Now I can't start the daemon. I tried deleting /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock as root. It deleted, but to no avail. Any idea what I have done wrong? I don't understand sockets. They're magic to me. ps shows no daemon running. mysqladmin also show no daemon and won't "ping"
