Starting MySQL on Leopard

For many, many months I have been seeking a website called "Angry Fly" and in particular the Fix for MySQL on Leopard page. It offered a quick and easy way for me to get MySQL started up on my Mac OS X 10.5 aka Leopard MacBook Pro. Worked ok on Tiger, but Leopard seems to be a bit more fussy.

I have just noticed a new comment today by Chris St.Germain.

"a new preference pane has been released from mySQL that actually works now! The file is: ftp://ftp.mysql.com/pub/mysql/download/gui-tools/MySQL.prefPane-leopardfix.zip "

This has made my day, a working MySQL preference pane in system preferences! Whoppee!
