I don't appear to have a /etc/my.cnf file - could the upgrade have removed
it?
Here is the error string I get when I try and start MySQL:
finhagens-macbook-pro:bin finhagen$ ./mysqld &
[1] 4697
finhagens-macbook-pro:bin finhagen$
090904 10:25:18 [ERROR] Can't find messagefile
'/usr/local/mysql/share/english/errmsg.sys'
090904 10:25:18 [Warning] Can't create test file
/usr/local/mysql/data/finhagens-macbook-pro.lower-test
090904 10:25:18 [Warning] Can't create test file
/usr/local/mysql/data/finhagens-macbook-pro.lower-test
./mysqld: Can't change dir to '/usr/local/mysql/data/' (Errcode: 2)
090904 10:25:18 [ERROR] Aborting
I have noted that a new path was created for mysql during the upgrade:
/usr/local/mysql-5.1.31-osx10.5-86/ ...bin ...share ...data etc.
Obviously that new path is resulting in the errors above.
-What's the best way to inform MySQL the direct structure changed?
-Is there a 5.4 version for MAC OS 10.6?
-Would it make sense to reinstall with that version? (my data base
is tiny and its relatively easy to export and import it and I am the only
user)

What is the connect string in the /etc/my.cnf file?

I upgraded to MAC OS 10.6 Snow Leopard over the weekend and now I find
that
upgrade appears to have broken MySQL (5.1.31 MySQL Community Server
(GPL)).
When I attempt to start MySQL I get:
ERROR 2002: (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket
'/tmp/mysql.sock (2)
Has anyone else had this issue and do you know of a fix or work around?
