It looks like the problem is caused by corrupt InnoDB files in the /var/lib/mysql directory. I deleted the files ibdata1, ib_logfile0, and iblogfile1 and mysql started up fine.
I'll have to check into a better recovery scenario when I get some more time. -Eric -- Socket missing with mysqld https://launchpad.net/bugs/45694 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
