Subject: "mysql start" produces "can't connect thru
/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock"
>Description:Trying to run mysql-3.23.41 that came with RH7.2 following
mysql.org documentation. files are not located as documented either for rpm
or source install. 'mysql start' produces 'cannot connect through
/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock'. mysql.sock is empty.
'./bin/safe_mysqld user=mysql &' gives me 'starting mysqld daemon with
datbases
from /var/lib/mysql mysqld ended' and hangs until I hit control c to get
a prompt.
