title: ERROR! The server quit without updating PID file XAMPP
body: <p>I know there are a lot of similar problems, but I have to post this because I am not finding a solution yet. Below is what happens when I try to run mysql. Not using homebrew here! I originally fixed the problem by killing the process ID for mysqld, but since I shut my computer down and relocated, then restarted, I am getting this error again. It seems to be the same except the difference with this error is the <em>local.pid</em> part. This was not in my original error message and wandering how to fix this?</p>
  
  <p>Original error fixed by killing the process ID:</p>
  
  <p>ERROR! The server quit without updating PID file (/Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/var/mysql/genevieve-ouellons-macbook-pro.pid)</p>
  
  <p>The new error after shutdown, relocate and trying to start:</p>
  
  <p>genevieve-ouellons-macbook-pro:bin genevieveouellon$ cd /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/bin
  genevieve-ouellons-macbook-pro:bin genevieveouellon$ ./mysql.server start
  Warning: World-writable config file '/Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/etc/my.cnf' is ignored</p>
  
  <p>Starting MySQL</p>
  
  <p>. ERROR! The server quit without updating PID file (/Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/var/mysql/genevieve-ouellons-macbook-pro.local.pid).</p>
  
  <p>Anyone have this problem?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks</p>
