I am trying to get MsSQL working. I can't get the server to start.
How do you know that you cannot get the service to start?
what is the result of: /usr/sbin/rcmysql status
if it is *not* 'running': /usr/sbin/rcmysql start

Sorry, had you already said if you checked the permissions on /var/lib/mysql? The files do need to be owned by mysql. Mine have owner mysql, group daemon with -rw-rw----. There may be smarter ways, but in the past when I have had mysql screwup and there is no data, I have rm -fr /var/lib/mysql, then /etc/rc.d/mysql start and that took care of it. Might be safer to mv mysql dir elsewhere instead of rm. Greg Engel
