Skrevet av: ATC på 27. ſeptember 2008, 18:24 pm

After manually downloading a newer .rpm from mysql.com to upgrade the MySQL server, restarting the service produces the following error message:
"Starting MySQLCouldn't find MySQL manager or server"

The stock mysql server shipped with some distros place certain files in different locations. These locations are specified in /etc/my.cnf and confuse the new version of MySQL that you just installed.

Either manually edit /etc/my.cnf and correct the paths, or simply delete '/etc/my.cnf' altogether. MySQL will usually start just fine without it, using default settings.
