Just installed mysql on centos 6.2. When I try to start it with service I get:
#service mysqld start MySQL Daemon failed to start. Starting mysqld: [FAILED]
Nothing at all is written to the error log.
But if I start it with mysqld_safe it comes up and works fine.
Anyone know what's going on here?
Did it hang while trying to start? Or was it an immediate failure.
Immediate - the 'MySQL Daemon failed to start' message comes out right away.
I was curious as to exactle what 'service mysqld start' did (as opposed to mysqld_safe, which works) so I traced it. Really didn't glean anything useful from it - perhaps someone will see something meaningful:
