Couldn't find answer to this question anywhere. A newbie OSX and MySql question:
I installed MySql through Fink but now that I try to start up I type "mysqld" at the prompt, but all I get is this: mysqld: Can't change dir to '/sw/var/mysql/' (Errcode: 13) 011208 16:11:38 Aborting 011208 16:11:38 mysqld: Shutdown Complete I understand that it tries to change directory, but doesn't it have the permissions to do that? I do not have permissions to get into the directory myself. It is owned by the MySql-user i guess? How do I solve this?
