Hello Jim,
By default mysql starts just fine, so the question becomes
"What did
you do?".
That's a good question. As far as I remember, installed mysql with centos. Then, since I could not enter to mysql console, I started to search for a solution, including reinstall mysql server and client from "some" rpms. Maybe the best solution is to uninstall the client and the server and to install the mysql stuff again from CD?
Thank you Samuel
rpm -e mysql-server yum install mysql-server
should accomplish what you want.
