The mysql error lodging is usually pretty helpful.  It will either be in /var/log or where /etc/mysql/ my.cnf says it will be

This is telling you that the service resource was run but the exit status of the command it ran was 1 instead of 0, which usually indicates an error of some description.

You'll need to run:
# service mysql restart
yourself and see what it returns on the command line.
