mysql: job failded to start. mysqld.sock is missing
- by Freefri
How can I fix this and start mysql-server?
After /etc/init.d/mysql start or service mysql start I get the message start: "Job failed to start"
And after # mysqld I get this:
mysqld
121123 11:33:33 [ERROR] Can't find messagefile '/usr/share/mysql/errmsg.sys'
121123 11:33:33 [Note] Plugin 'FEDERATED' is disabled.

I try to do what mysql say me to do:
mysql_upgrade
Looking for 'mysql' as: mysql
Looking for 'mysqlcheck' as: mysqlcheck
Running 'mysqlcheck' with connection arguments: '--port=3306' '--socket=/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock'
mysqlcheck: Got error: 2002: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2) when trying to connect
FATAL ERROR: Upgrade failed
And yes, /var/run/mysql is empty:
mysql_upgrade
Looking for 'mysql' as: mysql
Looking for 'mysqlcheck' as: mysqlcheck
Running 'mysqlcheck' with connection arguments: '--port=3306' '--socket=/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock'
mysqlcheck: Got error: 2002: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2) when trying to connect
FATAL ERROR: Upgrade failed
And this is my file /etc/mysql/my.cnf
# cat /etc/mysql/my.cnf |grep sock
# Remember to edit /etc/mysql/debian.cnf when changing the socket location.
socket = /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock
socket = /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock
socket = /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock
Then I try to reinstall mysql from cero:
apt-get purge mysql-client mysql-common mysql-server
rm -R /var/lib/mysql
rm -R /etc/mysql
rm -R /var/run/mysqld
userdel mysql
apt-get install mysql-server mysql-client
Then, after typing my root password for mysql I get this error:
| Unable to set password for the MySQL "root" user ¦
¦ ¦
¦ An error occurred while setting the password for the MySQL administrative ¦
¦ user. This may have happened because the account already has a password, or ¦
¦ because of a communication problem with the MySQL server. ¦
¦ ¦
¦ You should check the account's password after the package installation. ¦
¦ ¦
¦ Please read the /usr/share/doc/mysql-server-5.5/README.Debian file for more ¦
¦ information.
And again I can't start mysql getting the same messages.
