I'm running Mysql5.6 on RHEL 7. I had managed to get the mysql service up and running, and imported a database into it with no issues.

However, after attempting to reset a user's password, the database crashed. I tried to bring the service back up, but the service would only ever timeout.

This morning I once again tried to restart the service, and instead of timing out, received this error:

Job for rh-mysql56-mysqld.service failed because the control process
exited with error code. See "systemctl status
rh-mysql56-mysqld.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details.

I ran systemctl status rh-mysql56-mysqld.service and got:

I also checked the error logs after attempting to start mysql. There are a few errors, which I suspect have something to do with the issue:

I have tried setting the ownership of the rh-mysql56 to mysql using chown myql:mysql ./path/to/rh-mysql56, but that didn't help (also tried switching it to root, also didn't help).

I've tried running mysql_upgrade, which I have seen working for others, but I get the error:

Looking for 'mysql' as: ./mysql Looking for 'mysqlcheck' as:
./mysqlcheck Error: Failed while fetching Server version! Could be due
to unauthorized access. FATAL ERROR: Upgrade failed

I've also tried doing a yum reinstall, which didn't help issues at all.
At this point I'm kinda stuck, and wondering if there is something else I should try, or if there's something in the error messages I'm missing.

I should also say that mysql is installed to a abnormal location (it's at /opt/rh/rh-mysql56).
