[cobalt-users] MYSQL problems

[Tobe Johnson <tobe@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

MySQL will run if I start it from the command line with /usr/sbin/mysqld 
-Sg.  However, it won't run with only /usr/sbin/mysqld.

If I shut down the mysql server after running it with /usr/sbin/mysqld -Sg 
and try to restart it using /usr/sbin/mysqld it 'says' it is 'ready for 
connections', but it isn't.....I can't access it.

Any ideas what would cause this?  Is it something simple that I am missing?
