MY SQL配置问题求教! 急

cskingslayer

我的OS是RH9.0,
我把有mysql的安装包都装上了,可是没有/etc/rc.d/init.d/mysqld
之前还装了mysql.tar.gz,路径是/usr/local,可是
[root@localhost bin]# ./safe_mysqld &
[1] 2254
[root@localhost bin]# Starting mysqld daemon with databases from /var/lib/mysql 030827 17:21:54 mysqld ended
然后就挂那了Ctrl+C后
[1]+ Done ./safe_mysqld
[root@localhost bin]#
[root@localhost bin]# mysql
ERROR 2002: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (2)

从光盘rpm装上的mysql不知在哪,怎么调用?通过tar,make,make install的也没发用,
不知如何才能把折腾了一天的mysql服务启用,望大师指点,不胜感激!
