MySQL: Running MySQL in command line thru mysqld
Just wanted to take note of this. Instead of running your MySQL as a service, or thru mysqld_safe, the command line you can run can actually be like this. / usr / local / mysql / bin / mysqld --basedir = / usr / local / mysql --datadir = / usr / local / mysql / data --plugin-dir = / usr / local / mysql / lib / plugin --user =mysql --log-error = / usr / local / mysql / data / macmini.local.err --pid-file = / usr / local / mysql / data / macmini.local.pid
