/tmp/mysql* not found
But there was a pid file:
/var/opt/mysql/hvu03931.pid
So, I renamed it, and tried starting mysqld again - it still fails.

did you look in /tmp to see if there's a mysql.sock file there? if so,
check to be *certain* that you don't have a mysql instance running
already (including checking for the mysql pid file). if you don't, then
remove the mysql.sock file and, if you found one, the .pid file, and
then try to start mysql.
