Mysql server won't start - no logs
- by Owen
After a restart, mysql won't start. sudo service mysql start gives start: Job failed to start and the logs are empty, so I have no idea where to start. I'm pretty sure permissions problems are taken care of.
Edit:
All disks have at least 1G of space and sh -x /etc/init.d/mysql start gives me:
