Trouble starting mysql 4.1.1 on Mac

[Marty Ray]

I just downloaded and installed mysql 4.1.1 on a Macintosh G5, but I 
cannot get it to start up. I first tried manual startup using the unix 
commands as detailed in the manual. I kept getting the message mysql 
shutting down before I could hit ctl-Z. Then when I tried to connect, 
it stated:

 "ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through 
socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2)"

I then tried installing the automatic startup routine, restarted the 
computer and running mysql and I get the same message.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Marty Ray
