Shut down my Linux PC running MySqld and rebooted this morning and cannot get mysqld up. In services when I click on mysqld I get the message "Mysqld dead subsys locked" when i restart the server it says mysql succesfully restarted, but it isnt. When I try to stop the server it comes back with an error message "failed to shutdown". So I rebooted and during shutdown- shutdown mysql.............failed and- mysql killall...............failed. Anyone have any ideas as to how I can sort this? would a reinstall of Mysql work? would I lose legacy data doing this? Bob
