Seems pretty simple to me. The error is right there:

130817 0:57:11 [ERROR] Can't start server: Bind on TCP/IP port: Address already in use


Do you already have mysql running? If its MySQL before version 5.5.5, MySQL will be automatically started after an RPM install.

Run this command:

ps -ef |grep mysql


That will tell you if mysql is already running. If its, not, then something else is taking port 3306, which would be pretty unusual. You can see what's holding 3306 like this:

netstat -an | grep 3306
