Go to the cmd line and type ps -ef , do you see mysqld listed? If so then it is already
running.

Subject: problem starting server
Hi there,
I installed a mysql server on my Mac using homebrew.
$ mysql --version
mysql Ver 14.12 Distrib 5.0.91, for apple-darwin10.0 (i386) using
EditLine wrapper
When trying to start it I get
$ mysql.server start
Starting MySQL
.. ERROR! The server quit without updating PID file
(/usr/local/var/mysql/dbxserver.lan.pid).
What should I do to start MySQL?
