Thanks much, permissions. I did an rpm install of this package and it
appears some permissions were not or are not preserved by rpm. Well, live
and learn. I did the first step with chmod 0004 /var/lib/mysql, it's that
second one I'm not certain of. the user mysql exists and I gave it a
password
/var/lib/mysql must be world searchable:
/var/lib/mysql/ must be writeable by the user mysql.
/var/lib/mysql.sock will be created when mysqld starts, and must be
world writable.
