Ok.  I really appreciate your help.  I should have looked in the log
instead.  The latest log had a message in it that there was a
permissions issue:

/my.cnf: Permission denied at
/usr/local/slimserver/Slim/Utils/MySQLHelper.pm line 164..  

I installed the software as root, so the folder /usr/local/slimserver
and its contents were all owned by root.  Same with /var/db/slimserver.
I fixed that up with a chown -R slimserv and we are in business.

Thanks again for the help.

This is how it is supposed to work.  The output from slimserver is
written to /var/log/slimserver.log

If you are determined to run it directly from the command line, then
you should specify the user and group to run as, since it refuses to
run as root.

For example:

# /usr/local/slimserver/slimserver.pl --user=slimserv --group=slimserv
