RE: MySQL Daemon Failed to Start - centos 6 / RHEL 6

1. Yum Install MySQL

2. /etc/init.d/mysqld start MySQL Daemon failed to start. Starting mysqld: [FAILED]

4. You might get this error: [ERROR] Can't open the mysql.plugin table. Please run mysql_upgrade to create it.

Solution that works for me is running this:
