Bug Description
It took me a while to narrow down why I didn't see any logs or activity in the logs after upgrading to the OurDelta MySQL build. I didn't have log_error set and the default wasn't working.
Once I set log_error = /var/log/mysql.log then I started seeing messages showing up when restarting mysqld.
I did check both the /var/log and the mysql data directory.

Did you check syslog? Depending on the syslog settings of your distro,
this can be /var/log/messages or /var/log/syslog or something else.
