Re: Server won't stop...

[Michael Stassen]

It should be in mysql's bin directory, typically /usr/local/mysql/bin.  You 
either need to add that to your PATH,

  export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/mysql/bin
or use the full path when executing the command
  /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqladmin -u root -p shutdown
I'd recommend the former, and I'd suggest making it permanent by adding that 
to your .bash_profile.

I haven't used the OSX MySQL Administrator, so I can't be sure, but it *may* 
be that it isn't working because of the PATH problem.

way I have been able to quit the MySQL process is through the 
Activity Monitor, and a force quit at that.  What's up with that?
