Hi folks,

Been doing a lot of noodlin' and googlin' yesterday and today, and thought I found the problem... but alas!

To recap:

I just installed MySQL 5 on a freshly updated FC3 box. I initially was getting this error:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~] /usr/bin/mysqld_safe
Starting mysqld daemon with databases from /var/lib/mysql
/usr/bin/mysqld_safe: line 302: /var/lib/mysql/mybox.err: Permission denied
/usr/bin/mysqld_safe: line 308: /var/lib/mysql/mybox.err: Permission denied
STOPPING server from pid file /var/lib/mysql/mybox.pid
tee: /var/lib/mysql/mybox.err: Permission denied
050202 09:21:36  mysqld ended
tee: /var/lib/mysql/mybox.err: Permission denied

and this one:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~] mysql -u root
ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (2)
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]


Then I found the notes about selinux interferring with mysql starting up at http://forums.mysql.com/read.php?11,7164,7164

I tried
 setenforce 0
but I'm still getting the same errors.

Permissions are:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] /var/lib/mysql] I AM ROOT: ls -al

drwxr-xr-x   4 mysql root      4096 Feb  2 08:30 .

And the contents of the err file:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] /var/lib/mysql] tail mybox.err
InnoDB: Setting log file ./ib_logfile1 size to 5 MB
InnoDB: Database physically writes the file full: wait...
InnoDB: Doublewrite buffer not found: creating new

050202 08:30:51 mysqld ended


I'm stuck. Suggestions?
