Hi,

I have mysql installed in my F7 x86-64 system. When I try to use the System | Administration | Server Settings and highlight mysqld and click on start I get a delay and

"mysqld failed. The error was: Timeout error occurred trying to start MySQL Daemon.
Starting MySQL: [FAILED]"

This is less informative than I would like it to be.

/var/log/mysqld.log ends with:

080131 16:19:46 mysqld ended

080131 16:25:55 mysqld started
080131 16:25:55 InnoDB: Database was not shut down normally!

I don't know what this means or what to do about it. I have searched for mysql.host and it seems not to be present. Ideas?

Dave

There is no single government agency that views sustainability through a broad lens, taking into account the values of the people affected by government decisions. Any model of sustainability that is driven solely by an economic engine is deficient if it is incapable of taking into account social values.
