Hi all,

My server FC4 was unable to start MySQL. I have tried to use yum to remove and install MySQL several times. How can I solve this problem? Hope someone can give me a hand.

# service mysqld start
Timeout error occurred trying to start MySQL Daemon.
Starting MySQL: [FAILED]
#
#
# service mysqld status
mysqld dead but subsys locked

Problem is fixed. I was wrongly to changed the mode of /tmp from 1777 to 775. Thanks!
