Completely confused...

It turns out I really don't know what happened earlier with MySQL.
The mysqld daemon is now running on 'onegin', but there is no trace of it that I can see in the list of processes on the system.
Even after rebooting, however, I could not connect to the PHProjekt database from any machine on my network. The PHP source was not much help (plus, I am not in a position to be patient). So... I created a new database in MySQL and ran through the setup procedure again. Once finished, I logged into onegin and copied all of the databases from the old database directory to the new one.
What can I say? It worked, and all of my "old" data was still there.
Just for a lark, I called up the configuration file and changed the name of the database to the original name.
It, um, works.
So, I'm thinking that somehow, the previous connection connection got out of synch, which I visualize as a kind of blockage in the pipeline between the server and my computer. Redirecting the attention of the code to a new database I visualize as an operation that forced everything to be reset, thereby unblocking the pipe.
Of course, my visualizations likely have little to do with what actually happened.
Drew and Shannon spent some time this morning looking at houses, and they just stopped by to pick up some things before leaving for Durango to do some serious shopping at the Wal-Mart there. Lee and Galina left a few minutes ago to do a home tour that's being arranged locally.
Cheers...
