Timeout error occurred trying to start MySQL Daemon. Starting MySQL: [FAILED]
Here is one way to resolve the problem:
1. open /etc/rc.d/init.d/mysqld as a root user using your favorite editor.
2. find the line that looks like: if !([ -n "`/usr/bin/mysqladmin ping 2> /dev/null`" ]); then
3. change that line so that it looks like: if !([ -n "`/usr/bin/mysqladmin -u UNKNOWN_USER ping 2> /dev/null`" ]); then
Note that because of line wrap in a mail reader, the above may appear as though it is two lines, but it's really one line in the file (though I don't think it would make a difference).
Hope this helps, Clint
