icehouse : mysql will not start!
Im running through the Installation guide for icehouse.
I install mysql, start it and chkconfig and all is good. Now, Ive been snapshotting the VMs both when off and while on, and going back into the installation.
Now, when I try to start mysql (because it doesnt restart at power on) or when I go to install/configure keystone I get the following:
Starting service MySQL warning: /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock didn't appear within 30 seconds chmod: cannot access `/var/run/mysql/mysqld.pid': No such file or directory failed
I have no idea whats going on here. I tried to revert to snapshot right after mysql install but to no avail its still broken
Assistance would be greatly appreciated!
Do you see any errors in your logs? You didn't mention what platform you're on, but you would typically want to check wherever syslog is writing (possibly
/var/log/messages
) as well as any logs generated directly by MySQL (possibly/var/log/mysql.log
).
