Starting Mysql

[Shawn Protsman]

Ivan,

Do you mean starting the server or logging in to the MySQL server?  You
can use the following command to start the server:

# /etc/init.d/mysql start
or
# /sbin/service mysql start

Once you try either of the above then try to log in to the database:

$ mysql -u root

Regards,
Shawn
