Try /etc/rc.d/mysql start to start it manually (as root) or edit rc.config and set tart_mysql="yes" in order to get it started when entering run level 2 (multiuser/network).
I seem to have mysql, and mysqladmin installed since they do "something" however it seems that my mysqld is not running.
when I try mysql I get:
ERROR 2002: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (111)
when I try mysqladmin I get: error: 'Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (111)' Check that mysqld is running and that the socket: '/tmp/mysql.sock' exists!
Where is mysqld supposed to be started? in inetd? in rc.local? What's the norm in a Suse 6.2 installation?

I have just installed SuSE 6.2 and am enjoying the new features. However after installing MySQL, which I use consistently, it appears several of the files are missing or were not installed. In paticular mysql, the monitor, mysqladmin, mysqlshow ,and libmysqlclient.so. Ahhhh, is this a know problem that could possibly be solved by reinstalling MySQL? Or is this FEBCAC? (Fatal Error Between Chair And Console)
Hmm, I donŽt think that I left out these very essential files :) Did you install the MySQL client package as well? Look for "mysqclnt" in Series "pay".
Bye, LenZ
