Re: 2-Questions: Starting MySQL and Shutting Down on OS X

[Santino]

You have to make a script and put it in a folder (sorry I don't 
remember the name but it is on /System/startup) Try to locate a shell 
script like cron in a cron directory and modify it creating a script 
mysql in a mysql directory.
To start:
cd /user/local/mysql/data
./bin/mysqld_safe &

To stop
mysqladmin shutdown

All:

(1) I've got "/user/local/mysql/data" in my path, but when I attempt to run
"mysqld_safe" I get a message reading:
"Please do a cd to the mysql installation directory and restart this script
from there as follows: ./bin/mysqld_safe"
Do I really need to be in the installation directory to kick-off the MySQL
server? If so, why?
(2) Anyone running OS X have a good way to automatically shut MySQL server
before shutdown. Currently, I've got to do it manually. If someone else sits
at my workstation, they may or may not restart/shutdown without shutting
down the server. Before I invest time in trying to resolve, let me know if
there is something quick and easy out there.
