I am trying to get mysql to start/restart properly on my system. sudo port install mysql5 +darwin_8 +server ... I get the output ---> Creating launchd control script ########################################################### # A startup item has been generated that will aid in # starting mysql5 with launchd. It is disabled # by default. Execute the following command to start it, # and to cause it to launch at startup: # # sudo launchctl load -w /Library/LaunchDaemons/ org.macports.mysql5.plist ########################################################### I finish up (after the installation) with sudo launchctl load -w /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.mysql5.plist nothing found to load hmmm - any ideas why this isn't found/loaded/etc ? 8) ---------------------------------- Chris Janton - face at CentosPrime dot COM Netminder for Opus1.COM
