Restarting Mysql

[gmloki]

Got a slight problem

I have a small forum runing on a Suse 9.2 dedicated server. The datacentre rebootedour machine today. Apache Web Server and MySQL were not set to auto restart.

I got the Apache web server up but I cant seem to get the mysql db started so the forums work.

Does anyone know the commands to do this through putty at all ?

if you can ssh in it is something like mysqlsafe

arrr! isn't it safe.mysqld? goodness I can't even remember and I did it on my home system just a couple of days ago

You can probably start it by using: /etc/init.d/mysql start (if you installed it via apt-get)

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think SuSE uses the apt package manager.

And TeeDee, I think you mean mysqld_safe. It's usually somewhere obvious like /bin or /usr/bin.
