Wait! Stop! Don't reinstall anything.

The error message merely says that /etc/init.d/mysql.server doesn't
recognize the request you just gave it.

Try the ps command to see if mysqld is running:

  ps x

  ps x | grep mysqld

(There is probably also a desktop gui utility that tells you what
processes are running).

If it's not running, try running it.

  service mysqld start

Then configure your system to start it automatically at boottime (in
the System V service configuration)

No. That's using a jackhammer to drive a nail. Besides, we all need to
understand the details of system configuration. Otherwise we just keep
pulling out the jackhammer!

Read up on "System V init"
