Subject: Re: [rhn-users] start up issue with mysql daemon
It appears that mysqld is not running. have you installed the server and clients both ?  
two possibilities: 1) either the selinux policy OR permissions issue.

  Dear All
While trying to install mysql ( binary distro mysql-5.1.37.tar.gz ) on RHEL 5.2 platform, I am unable to start off the mysql daemon which throws an error message as follows:
# /etc/rc.d/init.d/mysql start
Starting MySQL.Manager of pid-file quit without updating fi [FAILED]
# /etc/rc.d/rc3.d/S64mysql start
Starting MySQL.Manager of pid-file quit without updating fi[FAILED]
]# mysqladmin version
mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed
error: 'Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2)'
Check that mysqld is running and that the socket: '/tmp/mysql.sock' exists!
Help to debug above mentioned errors are highly regarded and appreciated. 
with regards
s.mahalingam
