it seems messed, i don't know what is causing the problem, if i were you, instead of trying to clean up someone elses mess i would back up the /var/db/mysql folder, remove the entire package and reinstall it from ports, like, portinstall mysql-server, or pkg_add -r mysql-server

then restore your databases after you make sure everything is running and installed properly

Ya, I guess this is the next step. I really appreciate the help, I really do. I will post back after reinstalling.

THANK YOU.
