Try the command:
find / -name mysql 2>/dev/null
then you will find out if you have multiple mysql installations on
your system,
which I consider highly likely.

Subject: Re: Can't Bind to Port
server312# netstat -nlap tcp | grep 3306
tcp4 0 0 *.3306
*.* LISTEN
So... mysqld *is* listening on 3306? Why does it complain that the
port is being used and that it can't bind to it?

server312# chown mysql:mysql /usr/local/localhost/
