MySQL is Dead - In Desperate need of help

[Mindlash]

Quick backstory:

I've been trying to upgrade/optimize server, using anything from PHP-FPM and MPM Event with xcache, even as far as nginx/Engintron ... never had any real luck with any of them...

After uninstalling (pick any of the above mods), I've been left with a dead MySQL server. I can not start it, debug it, upgrade it, anything.

EasyApache is stuck @:

!! sub-step '1' !!
!! sub-step '2' !!
Cpanel::DBI::Mysql connect('','root',...) failed: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2) at /usr/local/cpanel/Cpanel/MysqlUtils/Connect.pm line 136

I ran EasyApache after instructed to do so after my latest WHM MySQL Upgrade (5.5 was not available, only 5.6, which I did). This supposedly worked and instructed me to now recompile apache/php... which I tried.



I've tried this suggestion

/scripts/update_local_rpm_versions --edit target_settings.MySQL55 uninstalled
/scripts/check_cpanel_rpms --fix
/scripts/update_local_rpm_versions --edit target_settings.MySQL55 installed
/scripts/check_cpanel_rpms --fix

This, and any future #service mysql start result in the following (via error log)

140906 14:42:05 mysqld_safe Starting mysqld daemon with databases from /var/lib/mysql
140906 14:42:05 [Note] Plugin 'FEDERATED' is disabled.

I'm totally stuck. I can't seem to upgrade/side-grade/downgrade/any-grade to get this server running.

PLEASE HELP.

Never fails, I post for help, after hours (days actually) of issues... then minutes afterwards, find *my* answer.

rm /var/lib/mysql/ib_logfile0
rm /var/lib/mysql/ib_logfile1

Howdy,

I was reading your post and I was thinking you should move those files out of the way. I'm glad it worked out

Thanks!
