5 If you are sure mysql isn't started, try:
6
7 /etc/init.d/mysql zap
8
9 Then start it again:
10
11 /etc/init.d/mysql start
12
13 BTW, this is not mysql-specific. If a service crashes for any reason,
14 the initscript framework may think it is still running (e.g. if it
15 didn't clean up its pid file). "zap" cleans that up, so that it can be
16 started again.

18 HTH.
