The postmaster is a Postgres daemon, and pg_shadow is the user table for
postgres.

Success. You can now start the database server using:
What is this? These messages do not appear to have come from mysql.
There's something you haven't told us. What is RemoteManagement/RMDB? Is
this something you run by hand, or something automated?
/System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/rmdb.bundle/bin/postmaster
-D /var/db/RemoteManagement/RMDB/rmdb.data
or
/System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/rmdb.bundle/bin/pg_ctl
-D /var/db/RemoteManagement/RMDB/rmdb.data -l logfile start

Have you tried doing what it says here?
MySQL seems to be running:
649 ?? S 0:00.02
/System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/rmdb.bundle/bin/postmaster
-D /var/db/RemoteManagement/RMDB/rmdb.data
That doesn't appear to be mysql.
When I run MySQLManager, I get this error message:
2005-01-19 12:37:34.328 MySQLInfoTool[667] Initial attempt at db
installation failed, probably due to bad hostname; trying again with force
option.
ERROR: 1064 You have an error in your SQL syntax. Check the manual
that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use
near

at line 1
That certainly seems to be a message (syntax error) from mysql.
050119 12:37:34 Aborting
050119 12:37:34 /usr/libexec/mysqld: Shutdown Complete
Not sure why, but mysqld just shut down.
When I type "mysql" at the command line, I get:
ERROR 2002: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket
'/tmp/mysql.sock' (2)
Are you sure mysqld is running? You got a shutdown message right before
this.
...yet the file exists:
srwxrwxrwx 1 mysql wheel 0 19 Jan 12:35 mysql.sock
Well, that should mean mysqld is running. Two things:
1) Use ps to make sure there's a mysqld process (ps -aux | grep mysqld).
2) Check the permissions on /tmp (actually, /private/tmp under OS X). Some
OS X updates have changed /tmp permissions in the past.
Any ideas about what to do? I've reinstalled the mySQL package, but it
didn't change things.
Thanks!
