if not restart mysqlserver, tomcat server isnt start....

Hope someone help......hurry.

Hi,


Are you sure that you only update mysql root's password? (or the password of whatever user you've as DBA)

You should check the my.cnf, verify that 'socket' configuration is right.

Also, telling something about the linux distribution you're using will be helpfull to guide you if you need it

I an sure that i was only update mysql root's password.

this is my 'my.cnf' configuration about mysql:

# The MySQL server
[mysqld]
port = 3306
socket = /tmp/mysql.sock
skip-locking
key_buffer = 16M
.....
.....

when i revert to the old root'password ,mysql can start.tomcat can start too.
install afresh myssql and tomcat? my Linux system was installed apache2.2+tomcat5.5+php5+mysql5+j2sdk1.6

in advance of Christmas day ,bless everybody Merry Christmas and best wishes for happy new year.

Either you're setting some weird password (alpha numeric + uncommon symbols + who knows) or you're not setting the new password right.

You could try using some easy password, nothing fancy (just to try) and then check if the error is the same.

Or read the mysql documentation regarding to your version of mysql to verify that your taking the right steps to update the mysql root's password. From version to version, this steps may change.

[root@ud010 root]# ls
-bash: ls: command not found
[root@ud010 root]#


when i use some baseic command ,the shell show 'command not found' why??

O_o

Well, I don't know why that's happening, don't know what change you've made, I could guess that you have messed with the bash profile or something, you try something like:
You could also check if it's a path problem using complete paths to binaries, like:
But as I said, I'm just guessing, I don't know what you did before the problem started so that's info you'll have to add here
