Just installed mysql-5.1.44-osx10.6-x86_64 straight from mysql.com, which automatically makes a symbolic link for “/usr/local/mysql -> mysql-5.1.44-osx10.6-x86_64″

But, it doesn’t add “/usr/local/mysql/bin” to your path, so you have to do that manually.

This post was really helpful.
I’m setting up a Ruby environment for the first time, and couldn’t figure out what was going on in with the MySQL Gem.

@Chris - I had a lot of issues before I blew away the old mac ports install. Also, thanks for the script link. I created a similar one I've used for about 2 years on our servers. Note: The link provided points at a category page. Here is the url of the article: http://chdorner.com/2009/08/28/fix-rmagick-imagemagick-for-mac-os-x-snow-leopard/

I struggled to get my ImageMagick install working properly after my SL upgrade. Then I found the post at http://chdorner.com/tag/mac-os-x/ which pointed me to a script which downloads, compiles, and installs all that is necessary to get ImageMagick working on SL. After running the script and reinstalling the rmagick gem I was good to go.

@Damage00 — I did something similar at first, but I kept running into issues. It was just easier to toast the /opt/local directory.

I used “sudo port upgrade –force installed” to reinstall all my macports instead of blasting away /opt/local. Worked for me anyway.
