Hi everyone,
I just installed mysql50-server, -client, and -scripts from Freebsd ports.
Everything seemed to go well, no errors that I noticed anyway.

So, after installing I tried to start the mysql server.
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/mysql-server.sh start
Nothing happens. No error messages, no starting, nothing.
If I do a ps ax I see no processes for anything connected to mysql.

I see no errors in any of my system logs either.
So, I made deinstall on all three, and reinstalled them. Same results.
The only thing I can think of is a permissions problem, but I'm not sure
where to look.
/usr/local/bin/mysql is chowned root:wheel, is that correct?

Is there a log my startup errors should be dumping to?
Is there somewhere else I should be checking permissions?
Is there anything the problem might be, that I can check?

Thanks.
