Have you bothered to place the proper directive in the '/etc/rc,conf'
file; i.e.,
MYSQL_ENABLE=yes
Otherwise, if you want to start it from the command line sans that
statement, you will have to use:
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/mysql-server force
Check out the mysql script in /usr/local/etc/rc.d for further details.
