I only use ports for a very few number of apps, such as irssi, newer versions 
of perl, etc.

I was recommending the OP use the DMG installer, as it comes with everything 
necessary, including startup scripts.

Is there any reason why you are using ports and not the native 64-bit DMG
from mysql.com?

I run the latest version (5.5.15) on my macbook running lion and the
install goes without a hitch.

I familiar with mysql on linux, as of late - ubuntu.
I am installing mysql on a mac mini, with the Lion - osx 10.7
operating system.

mysql-server was downloaded and built with macports.
Following instructions included has not resulted in a successful
startup.
I have recorded error messages, but it may suffice if I were pointed
to initial setup instructions for Mac Lion. So far, google has not
edified me.

TIA
