我在网络上的许多论坛上找到了，但我没有找到我的解决方案。当我在 linux ubuntu server 12.04 中启动服务 mysql 时，出现此错误：
root@stroke:/# mysqld_safe &
[1] 5789
root@stroke:/# 131001 10:12:29 mysqld_safe Logging to syslog.
131001 10:12:29 mysqld_safe Starting mysqld daemon with databases from /var/lib/mysql
131001 10:12:29 mysqld_safe mysqld from pid file /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.pid ended
我已经授予文件夹 mysql 的权限，我还尝试为 root mysql 创建一个新密码。但到目前为止，没有任何效果。
感谢帮助。
一些信息：
root@stroke:/# /etc/init.d/mysql start
Rather than invoking init scripts through /etc/init.d, use the service(8)
utility, e.g. service mysql start
Since the script you are attempting to invoke has been converted to an
Upstart job, you may also use the start(8) utility, e.g. start mysql
start: Job failed to start

# You can copy this to one of:

# - "~/.my.cnf" to set user-specific options.

# One can use all long options that the program supports.
# Run program with --help to get a list of available options and with
# --print-defaults to see which it would actually understand and use.
