I installed mysql with php...

So I assume I havent installed the client...

You *have* installed the client. Asking for php5 +mysql5 adds a dependency on mysql5. If you haven't already installed the mysql5 port, it is installed for you, but without any variants. You should have first installed mysql5 with the +server variant if that's what you wanted (and it sounds like it is).

tried that install you have above but it gives me an error

Do I need to remove mysql5 and start again or is there a way to install the server?

Apologies, but as a follow up... when i run port installed i can see server:
  mysql5 @5.0.27_1+darwin_8 (active)
  mysql5 @5.0.27_1+darwin_8+server
though its not listed as active...

You need to remove the non-server version:

sudo port uninstall mysql5 @5.0.27_1+darwin_8

Now you will only have the +server version installed (but not active) so you need to activate it:

sudo port activate mysql5

Then you need to install the initial databases and then start mysqld as per my earlier message.
