Answer 2

+1 A:

Step 1: Set the PATH

Did you do that (including the "source ~/.profile" bit)? Your shell cannot find the mysql command. So, you have either not installed it at all or installed in a location not listed in your PATH environment variable.

You can run a spotlight query from the command line to find all occurances of the mysql command like this:

$ mdfind mysql | grep '/mysql$'
