Okay, I skipped this hivelogic that doesn't work. I went straight to
the Mysql instructions and they don't work either which is why I tried
the hivelogic. I even read the Apple dEveloper page
http://developer.apple.com/internet/opensource/osdb.html

the quick install instructions I'm having problems with already:
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/quick-install.html

First two things it says to do doesn't work on my setup.
groupadd mysql
useradd -g mysql mysql

It doens't have a groupadd or a useradd command.
Are we setting the permissions?
I downloaded a fresh gz into a mysql /usr/loca/mysql directory.
Now I think what they want is to add a mysql group on this directory
and a mysql user.

This is a ls command:
sh-3.2# ls
data_copy dyndns mysql prepended.php restricted
sh-3.2# ls -la mysql
total 140320
drwxr-xr-x 3 root wheel 102 Dec 18 16:10 .
drwxr-xr-x 7 root wheel 238 Dec 18 16:10 ..
-rw-r--r--@ 1 root wheel 71841466 Dec 18 16:12 mysql-5.1.40-osx10.5-
powerpc.tar.gz

thanks hopefully once I get through it I will have it with the command
line and I would like debug also.

So where is the "newly created directory
/usr/local/src/mysql-5.1.40-osx10.5-powerpc" that you cd'd to after you
"extracted it
from the tarball" ?

2-year old instructions for something other than what you have.

You're sure making things difficult for yourself. Read and follow the
instructions in the INSTALL-BINARY text file that is included in the tar.gz
you downloaded.

I created a mysql group but can't figure out how to create a mysql
user? It says niutil not found
sh-3.2# sudo niutil -create / /users/mysql
sudo: niutil: command not found

Can I edit the passwd database directly? I guess that is a no-no but
theses instructions are the only ones I can find.

If you're unable to follow the straight-forward instructions in the
INSTALL-BINARY text file, then there's no further help that anyone can
provide for you.

Where the hell does it ever say anything in the text file even remotely
related to the junk you've stated?
