Hi,

I have installed MySql version 5.0.67 in RedHat LINUX version 5. The installation completed successfully.

When I am trying to start the service an error occured the error shown below

Hi,

I am new to Linux, where will be the log file present?

that depends on settings in my.cnf file.
look for my.cnf at /etc or /etc/mysql and find there settings related to logging.

Not to be a wiseacre but this doesn't seem to have a lot to do with HLP.
