I looked in Plesk to stop the MySQL service from running, but there is no button under Server>Services

Also tried "/etc/rc.d/init.d/mysqld stop" and "service mysqld stop" from command line, but response was FAILED for both.

Unplug your box . . . lol... :shock:

You have to use SSH: service mysql stop

Plesk will not work without MySQL started as it is dependent on it.

:shock:
