You don't say what OS you're using, but if you're using Mac OS X 10.4
or later, the recommended way to start mysqld now, and at every
system startup from now on, is:
sudo launchctl load -w /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.mysql5.plist
The recommended way to stop mysqld now, and prevent it from starting
up automatically, is:
sudo launchctl unload -w /Library/LaunchDaemons/
org.macports.mysql5.plist
If you're using Mac OS X 10.3 or earlier, then a startup item is
provided for you.
All of the above assumes you have installed the mysql5 port with the
+server variant. If you did not do that, you should uninstall mysql5
and reinstall it with that variant.
i get :
[1] 26609
~%> Starting mysqld daemon with databases from /opt/local/var/db/
mysql5
STOPPING server from pid file /opt/local/var/db/mysql5/www.une-
bevue.fr.pid

[1] + done sudo /opt/local/lib/mysql5/bin/mysqld_safe
then the daemon is launched and ends afterwards.
Have you checked the logfile to see what the problem is? The MySQL
logs are usually pretty helpful. I believe they are stored by default
in the same directory as the PID file, /opt/local/var/db/mysql5.
the file perms are :
~/Sites%> ls -al /opt/local/lib/mysql5/bin
<snip />
-rwxr-xr-x 2 root admin 1226368 Apr 23 20:33 my_print_defaults
is root:admin correct
or does i have to create a group:owner mysql:mysql and change it
accordingly ???
These are just the binaries. root:admin is perfectly normal and fine
for these files.
The directory /opt/local/var/db/mysql5 and its contents, however,
should be owned by mysql:mysql. You do not need to create this user/
group; Mac OS X already ships with these users. As far as I remember,
the directory is also already set to that user/group, but you could
double-check it if you like.
