Hi,

I have a Fedora Core 2, and I want to install MySQL Server. I download
the packages and install. But, when I start the daemon the message show:

"Timeout error occurred trying to start MySQL Daemon."

So, when I write: "mysqladmin -u root -h mme014149.mme.gov.br password"

this messsage appear:

"mysqladmin: connect to server at 'mme014149.mme.gov.br' failed
error: 'Can't connect to MySQL server on 'mme014149.mme.gov.br' (111)'
Check that mysqld is running on mme014149.mme.gov.br and that the port
is 3306.
You can check this by doing 'telnet mme014149.mme.gov.br 3306' "

Thanks

hi, at first open /etc/init.d/mysqld script with a editor then find mysqladmin ping lines and replace with mysqladmin -u mysqld ping .
