I installed MySQL under OSX 2.8 to play with it. Somehow I got it set to start the service automatically when the computer boots up. I have a control panel to turn it off, but I don't know how to get it turned off by default. How can I do this?

Sounds like you installed the serverlogistics package.

Look in /Library/StartupItems/ and move the MySql folder somewhere else.

You undo what you did in the first place. Only you know what that was.

In the case of package installers that install things all over the place, you don't know what that was As is the case in the server logistics package that automatically places a MySQL startup script on the system.

The server logistics package should come with documentation that explains what it did.
