command-line-interfaceMySQL

Has anyone seen this before?

[host@user init.d]$ mysqld stop
mysqld: Too many arguments (first extra is 'stop').
Use --help to get a list of available options
[host@user init.d]$ mysqld restart
[host@user init.d]$ mysqld start --user=mysql &
[1] 6782
[host@user init.d]$ mysqld: Too many arguments (first extra is 'start').
Use --help to get a list of available options

[1]+ Exit 1 mysqld start --user=mysql

Any straightforward reason for this to happen?

Try calling which mysqld and see which file is executed by you. I think it will be something like /usr/bin/mysqld or /usr/sbin/mysqld.

The program you want to call is /etc/init.d/mysqld, or /etc/init.d/mysql, or similar.
