When I try to start maria, Ubuntu 11.04, a local install mariadb 5.2.7
sudo /usr/bin/mysqld_safe I get
110801 22:40:54 mysqld_safe Logging to syslog.
110801 22:40:54 mysqld_safe Starting mysqld daemon with databases from /var/lib/mysql
110801 22:40:54 mysqld_safe mysqld from pid file /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.pid ended
If I try
sudo /etc/init.d/mysql start I get
* Starting MariaDB database server mysqld [fail]
sudo /usr/bin/mysqld_safe -h localhost or 127.0.0.1 with the same results as before.
I have been researching this problem and have found nothing definite about the problem of how to solve it. I have tried a complete reinstall from the repository and it has not helped.
I have verified my.conf appears to be correct based on information I have found on the web.
I have enclosed the output from mysqlbug:
