I'm having a LOT of trouble getting MySQL running on my computer. After trying to get it working manually in the commandline and experiencing constant 'Access denied' errors (after I set the root password) I eventually gave up and decided to use this utility called "Complete MySQL 4.0.15" I found on VerstionTracker.com.
It worked great and had a PrefPane that came with it that would launch the server. However, I wanted MySQL 4.1 so I figured that if I install over the previous installation it would work fine. I installed this but when I launched the server via the PrefPane it'd still launch version 4.0. I then tried manually launching mysql by doing:
shell #: sudo mysqld_safe &
It just gave me this output:
Code:
Starting mysqld daemon with databases from /usr/local/mysql/data
040717 15:24:32 mysqld ended
And quit.
How do I make it so that I can launch this latest version using the prefpane? Or perhaps why not just: How do I launch the latest version manually?
