In my UNIX (FreeBSD) system the database directories
shows up as below.
drwx------  2 mysql  mysql    512 May 11 11:51 mysql
drwx------  2 mysql  mysql    512 May 11 22:40 test

I guess this means I should only start mysql server by
being the user mysql. But how can I become the user
mysql?
The user/group mysql was created automatically during
install and mysql is actually a system process, thus
it has no password, the password database shows this
listing for the user mysql.

mysql:*:88:88::0:0:MySQL
Daemon:/var/db/mysql:/sbin/nologin
