[Wp-mirror-list] mysqld start issue

[Benjamin Goldsmith]

Dear Kent,

I've started my attempt to use wp-mirror version 0.6.  Here is what I've
done (using Debian Wheezy):

1) Downloaded wp-mirror_0.6-1_all.deb
2) Downloaded mediawiki-mwxml2sql_0.0.2-1_amd64.deb
3) dpkg --install mediawiki-mwxml2sql_0.0.2-1_amd64.deb
4) dpkg --install wp-mirror_0.6-1_all.deb
5) apt-get install -f (there was one outstanding package, radix, I
believe)
6) I had already been using wp-mirror version 0.5, so I ran these:
   a) wp-mirror --drop all
   b) wp-mirror --delete all
7) wp-mirror --add en
8) Just to be safe, I edited /etc/wp-mirror/local.conf and uncommented:
   a) (defparameter *mirror-language-code-list*    '("en"))
   b) (defparameter *mirror-image-download-p*            t)
9) Then I ran (as root): wp-mirror --mirror

I got the following message from wp-mirror:

[...snip...]

10) I interrupted the execution of wp-mirror at that point, as it
appeared to be in a loop of continually trying to start mysqld.

Any help would be appreciated!

Best,
