I download and used "mysqltuner" script and made some changes to my my.cnf and now i'm getting errors:

( http://www.howtoforge.com/tuning-mys...ith-mysqltuner )

Timeout error occurred trying to start MySQL Daemon.

I tired to put everything back to default, but after trying to restart mysql, i'm getting the same error message again.

Any idea what i'm doing wrong?
