    Hi,

    I am trying to get MsSQL working. I can't get the server to start.

    I tried typing in mysql_install_db and got the following response:

       linux:/home/nick # mysql_install_db
       Installing all prepared tables
       040602 5:54:02 /usr/sbin/mysqld: Shutdown Complete

       PLEASE REMEMBER TO SET A PASSWORD FOR THE MySQL root USER !
       To do so, start the server, then issue the following commands:
       /usr/bin/mysqladmin -u root password 'new-password'
       /usr/bin/mysqladmin -u root -h linux password 'new-password'
       See the manual for more instructions.

      NOTE: If you are upgrading from a MySQL <= 3.22.10 you should run
      the /usr/bin/mysql_fix_privilege_tables. Otherwise you will not be
      able to use the new GRANT command!

      You can test the MySQL daemon with the benchmarks in the 'sql-bench'
    directory:
      cd sql-bench ; perl run-all-tests

      Please report any problems with the /usr/bin/mysqlbug script!

    But this did not start it. I tried typing in rcmysql start but that
    failed.

    I can't get the service started in the first place so I can't add any
    passwards to any accounts.

    I installed the mysql with the suse 9.1 pro cd.

    I am thinking that I should reinstall my mysql. But I don't know how to do
    that. Can someone please tell me how to fix this or how to reinstall it?

    Nick
