http://serverfault.com – I have installed mysql and phpmyadmin via, yum. I get the message #2002 - Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (2) The server is not responding (or the local server's socket is not correctly configured). The problem though, is with mysql itself. # service mysqld start Redirecting to /bin/systemctl start mysqld.service Job failed. See system logs and 'systemctl status' for details. /var/log/mysql/mysql.log is empty, but I'm unsure where to look next? Any ideas? (HowTos)

Failed to Start Mysqld 33 weeks 2 days ago

Hello, I'm using Fedora 17 and installed MySQL 5.5.23 by executing #yum install mysql mysql-server about 3 months ago. Recently, I have a problem to start MySQL in my school server, when I execute

Code: #service mysqld start The output said:

Code: Redirecting to /bin/systemctl  start mysqld.service Job failed.

I'm having a devil of a time trying to get mysql to start on a Fedora install.

Whenever I try to start it i get:

[root@server1 log]# service mysqld start Redirecting to /bin/systemctl start mysqld.service Job failed.

My VPS had a hardware failure, and I was knocked out of service for the past 24 hours. Now that it's back up, MySQL refuses to work.

The IP address on my server recently was changed, and after the change, i performed a restart and when it came back online MySQL stopped working. I am running Debian 6.

I type mysql -u username -p and I get this message:

Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)

any idea what happened? How to fix it?

I have installed MySQL server 5.5 on Ubuntu 12.04. I am trying to start MySQL server on a different sock file.

So I just deleted a folder and a file in /tmp/ on my ubuntu server (12.10). Now everything related to MySQL is bugged. It also seems like the root mysql account I created has reset.
