I feel sorry for you because I can guess you are struggling... On my Mac laptop I use at home only for safari (browser to come here) or write scripts or show young students what is unix and what are the firsts commands to know including vi, I therefore rarely need to be root but have configured configured sudoers accordingly to my needs hehe ( oh and I go terminal when want to do some change in kernel...), my advice would be to go through command line as a user and learn properly unix commands and vi ( the editor...) before trying to do software configs through command line because what you see in command line not the same as what Mac shows you in GUI...
Its so true I created a user the unix way on my laptop and when testing, seen it doesnt show up in the GUI, but if I open a terminal and login, it works and we are 2 on the lappy... I never bothered getting the thing put right because of lack of time and have other priorities... but I know how confusing it can be... So get your soft installed by GUI and go after to look what has changed and look how, you will then have the key to understanding for future installs, perhaps in command line...
Good Luck

mysql_tzinfo_to_sql
MYSQL_TZINFO_TO_S(1) MySQL Database System MYSQL_TZINFO_TO_S(1)
NAME
mysql_tzinfo_to_sql - load the time zone tables
SYNOPSIS
mysql_tzinfo_to_sql arguments
DESCRIPTION
The mysql_tzinfo_to_sql program loads the time zone tables in the mysql database. It is used on systems that have a zoneinfo database (the
set of files describing time zones). Examples of such systems are Linux, FreeBSD, Solaris, and Mac OS X. One likely location for these
files is the /usr/share/zoneinfo directory (/usr/share/lib/zoneinfo on Solaris). If your system does not have a zoneinfo database, you can
use the downloadable package described in Section 10.6, "MySQL Server Time Zone Support".
mysql_tzinfo_to_sql can be invoked several ways:
shell> mysql_tzinfo_to_sql tz_dir
shell> mysql_tzinfo_to_sql tz_file tz_name
shell> mysql_tzinfo_to_sql --leap tz_file
For the first invocation syntax, pass the zoneinfo directory path name to mysql_tzinfo_to_sql and send the output into the mysql program.
For example:
shell> mysql_tzinfo_to_sql /usr/share/zoneinfo | mysql -u root mysql
mysql_tzinfo_to_sql reads your system's time zone files and generates SQL statements from them. mysql processes those statements to load
the time zone tables.
The second syntax causes mysql_tzinfo_to_sql to load a single time zone file tz_file that corresponds to a time zone name tz_name:
shell> mysql_tzinfo_to_sql tz_file tz_name | mysql -u root mysql
If your time zone needs to account for leap seconds, invoke mysql_tzinfo_to_sql using the third syntax, which initializes the leap second
information. tz_file is the name of your time zone file:
shell> mysql_tzinfo_to_sql --leap tz_file | mysql -u root mysql
After running mysql_tzinfo_to_sql, it is best to restart the server so that it does not continue to use any previously cached time zone
data.
