This is a quick post as much to remind myself the next time I need it as anything about how to start and stop MySQL from a terminal window on OS X.

    If you’ve installed a custom compiled mysql package then you need to edit the mysql.server file and change the paths for $basedir around lines 292 to your own version. On mine: mysql -> mysql-5.1.24
