I installed mysql through brew install mysql
and when I run mysql.server start
, I get the error ERROR! The server quit without updating PID file (/usr/local/var/mysql/User-Macbook-Pro.local.pid). After creating the .pid file, I run mysql.server start and get the same error. I've tried deleting the .err file but it just keeps removing my .pid file. Any ideas on what I'm doing wrong?

run these commands during install...
unset TMPDIR
mysql_install_db
also ensure that you're running mysql as the root user once you do have it installed...
sudo mysql.server start
