I've installed 3.23.53 on a MacOS X box.

verything seems to be OK except:

when I use mysql like this :

/usr/local/bin/mysql test

..no problem.

but if I want to use any option like :

/usr/local/bin/mysql test -u

This is not valid usage.
/usr/local/bin/mysql -u root test
on the other hand is.

The usage lines are printed to help you.
Please read them.


I get a zillion lines that start with
"./bin/mysql Ver 11.18 Distrib 3.23.53, for apple-darwin6.2 (powerpc)
Copyright (c) 2000 MySQL AB & MyQL AB Finland ...etc..."

..then the lines continue with:

"Usage: ./bin/mysql [OPTIONS] [database] ..ect ect ect..."

...then I'm dropped back at:

[wallstreet:~] spinel%

I've never seen this before.

mysqld is running but I'm unable to create a user with privileges.

Any idea ?

Regards.
