Another mysqld server running on port 3306 error [closed]


use lsof -i TCP:3306 to check which program binds port 3306


You could use netstat -lp | grep 3306 to find out what program is already listening on port 3306 (you should see PID/Program name in last column) and stop that (maybe mysql is already running?).

Alternatively you could start the newly installed server on a different port. (edit my.cnf and change the default port there)
