Mysql fails to start after server crash

To start the MySQL service, you can remove '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' and start the MySQL service again:

  1. Remove the socket file:

    [root@server ~]# rm /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock
rm: remove socket `/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock'? yes

  2. Start the MySQL service:

    [root@server~]# service mysqld start
