Howdy,

If you log into your server as root over SSH, what happens if you try to manually start MySQL with this command:

/etc/init.d/mysqld start

Does it startup? If not, do you see any error messages?

It is possible that just the location of the MySQL PID file changed, so Webmin thinks MySQL is not running, when in fact it is still fine. :) Trying what Eric suggested should clarify that.
