I added:

But I don¹t think it is working. I had rebooted my system the other day
and my mail server stopped working (postfix reading from mysql tables)
and I tried looking at my running processes:
ps ax |grep sql
Did you look in /var/log/messages for any errors? Did you look in
dmesg.boot?
and nothing was returned. So I guessed mysql was not running.
I tried:
mysql start
That won't work. Look at the startup script and you'll see why.
and I got a socket error. I usually get this error when SQL was not
started properly. So I ran
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/mysql-server.sh start
And low and behold it was all working.
Sounds like something is preventing it from starting properly during the
boot process.
So how do startup scripts work.
Did I add the wrong value to my /etc/rc.conf file?
Or did I miss something somewhere?
Does the entry in /etc/rc.conf correlate to the startup script. Should I
change my rc.conf file to read
mysql-server_enable=²YES²
No. mysql_enable=YES is the correct value.
