Question mysql will not start upon boot (mandrake 9)

Is there any know problem with mandrake 9? At first I thought it was my fault, but after having installed the distro 3 times on 3 different machines, I noticed that the problem is common: MySQL will not start upon boot, and I cant start mysql (I am kind of new with linux).

I tried a few ways to fix that problem but with no success. Any ideas?

What error messages if any are you getting? Have you checked the mysql.err file?

how are you trying to start mysql? what command? what do the these commands return:
Code:
which safe_mysqld
which mysqladmin

EDIT:
in the GUI, there is a control panel somewhere that allows you to select which daemons you want to start at boot. i never use the GUI, so i can't tell you exactly where it is. also:

service mysqld start

should launch an RPM installed version of MySQL. i haven't used a distro with RPMs in a while, though, so i could be wrong.

Are you sure the MySQL server is installed (and not just the client)? I think the proper package name for the server is mysql-server and not just mysql. But.. I could be wrong.

I am having a similar problem. I can start mysql manually from the command line. I did use the GUI tool to set mysql to start on boot, but I still have to start it manually. Also on a recently reimaged machine, using both original code from the cd's as well as the security updates.

MySql is OK!!!!!!!!

I can do it!!!!

first the following commands
mysql_install_db

copy mysql.server to /etc/init.d
then

chkconfig --add mysql.server

chkconfig --add mysql

then edit the file
/etc/init.d/mysql
and go to this part of text

Code:
# The following section has been taken from
# the original MySQL init script
basedir=/usr
datadir=/var/lib/mysql
mysql_daemon_user=root
pid_file=/var/lib/mysql/mysqld.pid
socket=/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock


mysql_daemon_user=mysql is the deafult setting change it to

mysql_daemon_user=root

and finish!!!!

I'm using SuSE 8.0
and finish this settings works in my system
