Well I finally found a linux distro I like, I got the mysql server rpm installed on Fedora core 6 just last night... Now I am trying to start up the server and all i get is it saying its starting then saying its stopping from PID file /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.pid

I am new to linux and farily new to running the mysql server, what should I be checking to fix this

thanks i got it reinstalled and it works now.... Now how do I get mysql Administrator to connected to the server, the server doesnt seem to accept any connections from Mysql administrator, or is there a better graphical client for the server to use?

Hey did u try the very first 'mysql' command? On a clean install, it usually fires up without any password, directly into root account.

Else you may also try 'mysql --user=root'

If you were looking forward to perform mysqladmin functions, then its better you try the MySQL GUI tools kit.
Find it at http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/gui-tools/5.0.html

Also download the mysql manual. It is a mere must while you are working with MySQL.

Ok now that I got mysql installed and running and I got phpmyadmin installed, it says that I am missing the mysql module for php, I tried installing the module it suggests as an rpm that came with fedora but it does not work for some reason? is there somewher I can find this module to install? or is it just something I need to edit in one of my config files, and if so which one?
