I recently installed MySQL-3.23.52 and ranthrough the config and installation without any trouble. The server was running just fine.
Today I performed a reboot of the system and the server will not start up again. I also tried to start the server by hand and these are the error messages I'm receiving: from /usr/local/mysql/bin... [ed@home bin]$ ./safe_mysqld The file /usr/local/mysql/libexec/mysqld doesn't exist or is not executable Please do a cd to the mysql installation directory and restart this script from there as follows: ./bin/safe_mysqld. [ed@home bin]$ ./mysqld 021023 7:03:11 Warning: setrlimit couldn't increase number of open files to mo re than 256 021023 7:03:11 Warning: Changed limits: max_connections: 100 table_cache: 73 ./mysqld: Can't change dir to '/usr/local/mysql-3.23.52-pc-linux-gnu-i686/var/' (Errcode: 2) 021023 7:03:11 Aborting 021023 7:03:11 ./mysqld: Shutdown Complete Can anyone gather from this info why it's not starting and what I need to do to make it work again. The main installation directory is /usr/local/mysql-3.23.52-pc-linux-gnu-i686 and /usr/local/mysql is a link. Like I said before the server started just fine after initial installation.
