I have a mysql which was working fine until this afternoon, I rebooted my machine I started getting this error
MySQL Daemon failed to start
In log files

I googled and found some threads about privileges around the mysql directory, it is owned by mysql user and has all rights, I tried running mysql_upgrade
I get
