Before doing anything else, first read the MySQL error log -- usually in /var/db/mysql. I suspect that you need to run a repair job on some of your databases -- mysqlcheck is your friend. Once you've done that, mysql should come up smoothly.

Occasionally I get odd things happening, things not starting up even though rc.conf has the right information. Try starting by hand using the script in /usr/local/etc/rc.d If it doesn't start that way, then run the command that actually starts mysql and see if it complains about something missing. __ Do You Yahoo!?
