[rhn-users] Installing MySQL 4.1.20 on RHEL4, can't get it running

[Jack Yu]

Ok, this is what from the log file: 

060622 04:33:06  mysqld started
060622  4:33:06 [ERROR] Can't start server: Bind on
TCP/IP port: Address already                          
                   in use
060622  4:33:06 [ERROR] Do you already have another
mysqld server running on por                          
                  t: 3306 ?
060622  4:33:06 [ERROR] Aborting

060622  4:33:06 [Note] /usr/libexec/mysqld: Shutdown
complete

then I run 
>>  netstat -napt
and get this output 
Active Internet connections (servers and established)
Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address              
Foreign Address             State       PID/Program

0.0.0.0:*                   LISTEN      3519/mysqld
