I had MySQL running just a couple days ago, but now it is not.

The command and error:

# /usr/local/mysql/support-files/mysql.server start
Can't execute ./bin/mysqld_safe from dir /var/lib

There is mysql directory under /var/lib, but I am not executing from
there. If i go to /usr/local/mysql/support-files/ and execute the
command mysql.server start from there, the result is the same.

There is no log file in /usr/local/mysql/data.
Somebody else had this problem (http://lists.mysql.com/mysql/144932)
but no solution is there

This is an unzip/untar (mysqlcc-0.9.4-linux-glibc22.tar.gz) of a binary
installation.  I have followed the instructions specified there.

The weird part is that it was actually working for a couple days, and
then it stopped.  I had created a table using mysqlnavigator the day
before it stopped working, that's the only difference.  I have since
removed the original installation and reinstalled it, following the
instructions, but the result is the same.

I can only assume this is an issue related to permission of access for
the user/group mysql/mysql, but I have done everything according to the
instructions, as evidenced by the fact that it was working at first.

Any suggestions?
