This is probably because the port uses /var/db/mysql as the database
directory (not sure why since /var is pretty tiny). An easy "fix" is:

mysqladmin shutdown
mkdir /usr/local
mv /var/db/mysql /usr/local/
ln -s /usr/local/mysql /var/db/mysql

then start mysqld however it is you do that (mysql-server.sh start maybe?)

Ah, thats much better now. Thank you.
