After you save and exit out of your .profile then do the following so you changes can take effect:

source .profile <enter>
OK, thanks. I did what you said, but still MySQL can't be found. My .profile now looks exactly like this:

PATH=$PATH:$HOME/usr/local/

But when I type "which mysql" <enter>

I still get this:

no mysql in /bin /sbin /usr/bin /usr/sbin /usr/local/bin /Users/timo/usr/local/ /usr/local/bin

Can it be that there are different files setting my path? I can't really see a connection between the path I set and the error message I get.
