Re: Server won't stop...

[Jeff Justice]

Okay, I was able to get the MySQL to shut down via command line.  
However, not being a Unix person, I'm not sure where I would go to 
change the .bash_profile.  I've never had to change it for anything up 
until now.

I will be curious to see if adding the path affects the problem in any 
way with both the MySQL preference pane and the Administrator utility.

 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.
