Hi all

I hope somebody can point me in the right direction ?

I have followed the instruction so far and installed mysql on osx and set it up ish...the problem occurs when I copy my-huge.cnf to /etc/my.cnf and make the changes in the instructions. When I then stop the sql service, it doesn't then start again until I remove the my.cnf from the /etc dir. Am i missing something? I'm running osx 10.8.4 and mysql 5.5.33.

Is there a way I can check what cnf file mysql is using when it works and add the line in?

Thanks

B

try bind-address = 0.0.0.0
I am not sure about that bind-address = ***.***.***.*** in the FAQ...

If that doesn't work try replacing ***.***.***.*** with the actual IP of your box.
