mysql problems

i cannot get mysql working, i think i've changed some things around that i should not have changed! is there anyway to remove mysql and start fresh without having to clean re-install.. i am running fedora 3.. i've already tried removing the packages and adding them again? but all the data stays theres??

HELP!.. thanks..

You need to disable secure linux
I had this same problem when setting upo my phpbb forums a few weeks a go
I believe it is in "system settings >> security level"
set that to "low" or "off", etc any try it again

I can't get mysql working either secure linux is disabled but i get the following error when i try to start it with "service mysqld start":

Code:

---

Timeout error occurred trying to start MySQL Daemon.
Starting of MySQL:                                        [FAILED]

---

(Last line is translated from dutch :). Could be different.)

Is there anyone who knows what to do? tried re-installing multiple times....

uninstall the RPMs and run:

rm -rf /var/lib/mysql /etc/my.cnf

Then reinstall the RPM. This will start you over from scratch.

Best,
