Em seu datadir geralmente / var / lib / mysql deve haver um arquivo .err onde você pode encontrar mais detalhes. Por favor, dê uma olhada nesse arquivo. Primeiro você verá muitas mensagens iniciais e informações sobre o MySQL configurando seu datadir. O problema começa quando você se deparar com um erro ou uma linha de mensagem fatal.
