I installed the binary of MySQL 3.23.51 according to the recipe, I believe.
iirc, mysql avoids syslogd and keeps a log of its activities in /usr/local/mysql/var/HOSTNAME.err where HOSTNAME represents the hostname (as returned by the hostname command) of your machine. this is most likely a good place to look for further clues. there may also be further information in /var/log.
