ps should show you something like the following:
Jupiter:~/desktop hcir$ ps uax | grep mysql
root 291 0.0 0.1 18644 1072 ?? S 3May04 0:00.06 sh ./bin/safe_mysqld --user=mysql
mysql 338 0.0 2.5 51720 19872 ?? S 3May04 10:17.86 /usr/local/mysql-standard-4.1.0-alpha-apple-darwin6.4-powerpc/bin/ mysqld
hcir 20399 0.0 0.0 18172 344 std S+ 10:52AM 0:00.01 grep mysql
if you dont see this i would check the error log after you try to start the server with something like:
#/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqld_safe -uuser &

Did you configure MySQL and run the /usr/local/mysql/scripts/mysql_install_db to initialize your data directory?

I have an iBook G4 running MacOS X.3 on Darwin 7.0. I downloaded and ran the
binary installer (mysql-standard-4.0.18.pkg and it appeared to work fine; I
have /usr/local/mysql and so on as per the docs. I also installed
MySQLStartupItem.
However, I don't actually appear to have a functional installation. If I do:
/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql
or even
sudo /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql
I get:
ERROR 2002: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (61)
although /tmp/mysql.sock does exist, which seems to indicate the server is
running. But then again ps -a -x doesn't seem to show it, so maybe it isn't;
if I do ps -A |fgrep "mysql" on my Linux box, where MySQL is running happily,
I get a hit for mysqld_safe plus ten others for mysqld.
I tried starting the server manually as suggested in the docs:
sudo /Library/StartupItems/MySQL/MySQL start Starting MySQL database server
but when I try running mysql I get error 2002 as before.
I found mention of this problem on FAQTS and in the MySQL mailing lists
archive, the latter of which suggested this email address. Any clues would be
most welcome! Please cc any replies to me as I am not currently subscribed to
any of the MySQL lists.
Thanks in advance,
