you might also need to run chkconfig to turn on the startup script.
do:
chkconfig --list |grep mysql
...if is says off off off... and no "on"'s, then it's off. So, do:
chkconfig mysql on
...then do this again:
chkconfig --list |grep mysql
There's more to it... all those numbers are init states 0,2,3,4,5,6 - all
state the Unix books might be in, the first few being boot up, while 3,4,5
are when it's really starting to go... I think 5/6 are related to starting
X, I forget. You probably don't have to worry about that though... just
use that "on" command and it will probably fix it for you.
