I've installed mysql 3 & 4 a dozen times or more, but I'm having trouble with 4.1.2 on OS X Server (10.3.4). This is a new install, no previous mysql (never did fire up the built-in mysql on this particular box).

The /data/{host}.err file shows the following after a machine reboot which should start mysql up with the /mysqlcom/mysql script

040601 11:50:23 mysqld started
040601 11:50:23 Warning: Setting lower_case_table_names=2 because file system for /usr/local/mysql/data/ is case insensitive
InnoDB: unable to create ./innodb.status.16182: Permission denied
040601 11:50:23 Can't init databases
040601 11:50:23 Aborting
040601 11:50:23 /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqld: Shutdown Complete
040601 11:50:23 mysqld ended


Trying to use the script manually (which I've done plenty before with 3.x and 4.0) I get this:

040601 11:50:23 mysqld started
040601 11:50:23 Warning: Setting lower_case_table_names=2 because file system for /usr/local/mysql/data/ is case insensitive
InnoDB: unable to create ./innodb.status.16182: Permission denied
040601 11:50:23 Can't init databases
040601 11:50:23 Aborting
040601 11:50:23 /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqld: Shutdown Complete
040601 11:50:23 mysqld ended


Can't figure out which permission is failing. I've looked at folder and file perms of the startup script and they match those on systems with 4.0 that are working. Same with the /data directory.

Baffled.
