Mysql is not starting

development

forum:sandesh 12 years, 8 months ago

I am new to linode.. my server was giving some mysql swapping error, so I just restarted the server, I can see apache is working, but mysql is still down.

And I can see a error in one of our site:

–----------

Warning: mysql_connect(): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2) in … on line 23 Fatal error: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2) in … on line 23

Please can anyone help me to resolve this.

thanks

check your mysql logs and find out why it didn't start up on reboot.

Take a look at /var/log/syslog
