When I start mysql with the following command is restarts constantly: /usr/local/mysql/bin/safe_mysql --user=mysql & the following message scrolls constantly <date> <time> mysqld restarted Anyone provide any help? At the time this began I was editing permissions for the stduser so it can check passwords that are stored in databases outside mysql, I gave it select permissions in other tables then I issues a reload command and it hasn't stopped yet. Reboot and it just continues to act the same way.
