Connect DB Borked After Upgrade
* Removed mysql and reinstalled
Verified mysql is working both via ssh and Workbench
Verified all accounts, dbs and tables are accounted for (In short, almost everything is like before the upgrade)
Tried changing "bind-address" from 127… to what it used to be (double checked backup cnf file)
Even tried commenting out the bind-address line
Verified hosts file was unaffected
Just can't find the solution. Could use some advice.

OK - what do the logs and the command output say when attempting to start mysql? Post them verbatim, please.

It's simply the connection to my website linode that's now broken after the upgrade.
I've tried binding it to 127.0.0.1, 0.0.0.0, the website Ip, "Mysql", even my websites FQDN. I've also tried commenting out the bind-address line. None of that works.
For the record the FINAL problem ending up being: When upgrading, the php modules got lost, so no PDO driver. After installing, all good again.
