Just for grins have you tried removing and reinstalling mysql? remove it with a purge to get rid of any configuration and reinstall should clear it up. I assume you do not have anything to lose since you have not been able to start mysql anyway. Lou -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
