Why won't MySql server start?

Question

linux

Mysql server stopped starting:

Removing the /var/lib/mysql/ib_logfile* and /var/lib/mysql/ibdata* files and adding the line innodb_flush_method=normal to /etc/mysql/my.cnf
did not help.

Answer 1

Well, it is written that:
Since the normal value is not recognized, why set it?

Answer 2

> 160805 21:21:55 [ERROR] Unknown/unsupported storage engine: InnoDB
There is a suspicion that you have a muscle without InnoDB support…

Answer 3

Try
$ sudo apt-get install mysql-utilities

Answer 4

Were you able to solve the problem?
the database also hung, as a result, the server stopped starting. removed phpmyadmin, ib_logfile0, ib_logfile1
after that it says there are supposedly no tables, but they exist and do not open.
