I am using Oracle LINUX5. I installed MySQL 5.1.73 community edition through RPM command and it was working. Now, I stop mysql by running below command:
$ mysqladmin -u root -ptmpassword shutdown
I did not get any message after executing the above command. When I run below command to start the service:
$ /etc/rc.d/init.d/mysql start
I got below message: Starting MySQL.Manager of pid-file quit without updating fi[FAILED]
Now, I am unable to connect MySQL database.
- How can I start MySQL again?
- What is the reason behind not starting the service?
