Before doing anything else, first read the MySQL error log -- usually in /var/db/mysql. I suspect that you need to run a repair job on some of your databases -- mysqlcheck is your friend. Once you've done that, mysql should come up smoothly.

In the last episode (Apr 14), jekillen said: In addition to the mysql, quick solution question: the error is literally: ERROR 2002 [HY000]: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (61) Looks like mysql has crashed. Restart it and it will recreate the socket file.

It was a trivial script I wrote because I didn't want to practice typing every time I started mysql.
