Edit .bash_login in your home directory and edit a PATH statement so it looks something like this: <code>export PATH="/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/mysql/bin:$PATH"</code> I got stuck here too, and then followed the instructions at <a href="http://hivelogic.com/articles/2005/12/01/ruby_rails_lighttpd_mysql_tiger" rel="nofollow">here</a> (under the 'Add MySQL to your PATH' section). Hope that helps... Ahh, you need to add the MySQL bin directory path to your bash_login config file.

I think it's a path problem. I have CocoaMySQL which is a gui for MySQL like phpMyAdmin. But to be honest, I *like* doing things from the command line right now, and I think it's better for me to do that to start with and then move on to a gui when I feel a bit more confident that I understand how the command line works.

I've not managed to get the console to work yet (think it's something to do with the mac environment). You might find it easier to install PhpMyAdmin on your localhost, and use that to make mysql commands instead.
