When starting mysql daemon with
mysql.server script, it showed error message likeERROR! The server quit without updating PID file (/usr/local/var/mysql/data/*********.pid). The new homebrew instruction to install mysql makes its default $datadir to be $basedir/data but the setting of $datadir in mysql.server line 70 didn't be fixed to corresponded to the change.Adjust
$datadir in script or just use boot parameter --data-dir=/usr/local/Cellar/mysql/5.5.10/data/ makes mysql.server work.
