I have a mysql server (4.0.20) that has been flaky these days. I can't connect to it by 'mysql -p' or shutdown thru mysqladmin. It just hangs there forever without doing anything. I tried to 'ps -Aef | grep mysql' and sees nothing but the mysqld_safe and the mysqld_max thread initiated by mysqld_safe, and of course, the mysqladmin thread to shutdown mysql as it just hangs in there, ie, no client connected to mysql server that is preventing it from termination.
Can anyone give me some help on this? Is there anyway I can find out what is going on in there or shut it down cleanly without having to worry about having defective files?
Thanks a lot
