Unable to start MYSQL

Unable to start MYSQL

Hi Team,

I couldn't start the mysql in the red hat 8, due the bad
configuration in my.cnf and non availability of data file for
the database. I want to reinstall the mysql, kindly let me know how to.

I have also tried "rmp -e <File>.rpm' and removed the files from
/var/lib/mysql. Reinstalled everything, still i couldn't make it.

Pacakage availabe now : -

[root@(protected) mysql]# rpm -qa | grep -i mysql
