mysql help

Hi-

I am new to using Linode and I accidentally knocked my db sites off line. Please see:

Drupal: http://50parties.com/

Wordpress: http://www.cassieoshea.com/

I was recently adding a new db for:

Wordpress: http://neilhellegers.com/

Now, I can't see to connect to my the other two sites. I was following the instructions here:

http://library.linode.com/web-applicati … wordpress/">http://library.linode.com/web-applications/cms-guides/wordpress/

I did run this command:

openssl rand -base64 500

Any help would be most appreciated.

Thanks,

Casey

Looks like either your mysql server isn't running, try running

/etc/init.d/mysql retstart

if it is running then your privileges are probably messed up, try

FLUSH PRIVILEGES in mysql if that doesn't work try readding your users.

Pointing out the obvious here, just in case somebody blindly copy-pastes:

the correct command is 'restart', not 'retstart'. So,

'/etc/init.d/mysql restart'

:)
