Explanation

You can invoke mysqld manually. This is usually not done except for debugging purposes. If you invoke the server this way, error messages go to the terminal by default rather than to the error log. mysqld_safe is a shell script that invokes mysqld. The script sets up the error log, and then launches mysqld and monitors it. If mysqld terminates abnormally, mysqld_safe restarts it.
