Since I didn't write those instructions, I'd like to redirect this  
conversation to the macports-users mailing list where others can  
comment too. Please Reply All from now on so the discussion can stay  
there.

Thanks; I fixed the wiki page:

http://trac.macports.org/wiki/howto/MAMP?action=diff&version=18

FYI, you can edit wiki pages too. Just sign up for an account, if you  
don't have one already.

No, /opt/local/var/log/mysql5 is the correct directory for MySQL  
logfiles. If it does not exist, you can create it. I should probably  
have the mysql5 port create this directory. I'm not sure if a ticket  
has already been filed on that.

I don't know why it says to manually run "mysqld_safe5". That  
shouldn't be necessary. Running "sudo launchctl load -w /Library/ 
LaunchDaemons/org.macports.mysql5.plist" should start the MySQL  
server for you. Perhaps the order of the commands shown in the wiki  
page is wrong. For example I'm pretty sure you should install the  
initial database before attempting to start the server. But I don't  
have time right now to try setting up MySQL from scratch. Hopefully  
somebody else does and can correct the instructions.

Thanks. This error was introduced into the wiki here:

http://trac.macports.org/wiki/howto/MAMP?action=diff&version=12

I undid the incorrect part of that change.

Well, you still need to set your root password. Correct instructions  
for that are now in the wiki.
