[SOLVED] rc.mysqls start problem

cola · 12-27-2009, 12:24 AM

/etc/rc.d/rc.mysqld start

Code:

nohup: redirecting stderr to stdout
Starting mysqld daemon with databases from /var/lib/mysql
STOPPING server from pid file /var/run/mysql/mysql.pid
091227 12:23:39  mysqld ended

Code:

mysql -u root -p
Enter password: 
ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysql/mysql.sock' (2)

if it's the first time you're starting it, from a root shell

Code:

mysql_install_db --user=mysql
/etc/rc.d/rc.mysqld start

(took it from the beginning of /etc/rc.d/rc.mysqld script

)
then you can change the default password (none) with mysqladmin

Code:

mysqladmin password mysecretpassword
