Trying to Install MacPorts MAMP: Followed the steps with my old Mac a few years ago with out issue. wiki:howto/MAMP

Now I am getting errors:

When I execute this Command

~ sudo port install mysql5-server]

I got the following errors

    /opt/local/var/macports/logs/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_databases_mysql5/mysql5/main.log
Error: The following dependencies were not installed: mysql5
To report a bug, follow the instructions in the guide:
    http://guide.macports.org/#project.tickets
Error: Processing of port mysql5-server failed

I reviewed and determined that I need to run

~ sudo port install mysql55-server

and it installed.

The next step fails with both options:

Option 1)

sudo -u mysql mysql_install_db5

Error Message

sudo: mysql_install_db5: command not found

I also tried

~ sudo -u mysql mysql_install_db55

Got the same error

Option 2)

sudo mysql_install_db5

Error Message

sudo: mysql_install_db5: command not found

I also Tried

~ sudo mysql_install_db55

The mysql5 port is old and has been deprecated; it looks like that guide will have to be updated to reflect that...

Yea, I kind of guessed that and figured out the 1st part

sudo port install mysql55-server  

but now I am stuck at the next step. not sure what to change on the other command is needed.

The newer mysql ports use the port select mechanism, so the "other command" will not be in your path by default unless you either run port select or add the port's directory for its binaries to your PATH.

The MAMP guide should be updated. In the mean time check out the notes for mysql55-server:

$ port notes mysql55-server
