mysql update problems (FC2)

[Paul Rennix]

last night, ran yum update, and this was done:

01/22/05 02:47:42 Updated: mysql 3.23.58-9.1.i386
01/22/05 03:08:19 Updated: mysql-server 3.23.58-9.1.i386

since then, I can't get mysqld to run. I've googled and tried everything out
there.  No mysql.sock exists anywhere on the box.  Does anyone have any
advice?  Thanks in advance

/etc/my.cnf is:

[mysqld]
datadir=/var/lib/mysql
socket=/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock

[mysql.server]
user=mysql
basedir=/var/lib

[safe_mysqld]
err-log=/var/log/mysqld.log
pid-file=/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.pid
