Hello! I have been trying to solve this since this morning, but I seem to be
going nowhere :( Using debian testing, installed today. My computer is called
"firewall" and the command resolveip localhost or resolveip firewall
correctly return 127.0.0.1
When I try to start mysql from command line I get:
firewall:/etc/mysql# /etc/init.d/mysql start
Starting MySQL database server: mysqld...failed.
Please take a look at the syslog.
/usr/bin/mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed
error: 'Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket
'/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)'
Check that mysqld is running and that the socket:
'/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' exists!
firewall:/etc/mysql#
while syslog says:
May 29 18:59:21 localhost mysqld_safe[4416]: started
May 29 18:59:21 localhost mysqld[4420]: 050529 18:59:21 Can't start server:

k' exists!

Any help is appreciated! Thanks
