I am trying to get mysql to start/restart properly on my system.

FYI, you do not need to specify +darwin_8; +darwin_8 is auto-selected
for you on Darwin 8 (a.k.a. Mac OS X 10.4) systems.
I get the output
---> Creating launchd control script
###########################################################

###########################################################
I finish up (after the installation) with
sudo launchctl load -w /Library/LaunchDaemons/
org.macports.mysql5.plist
nothing found to load
hmmm - any ideas why this isn't found/loaded/etc ?
That's odd. I only get the message "nothing found to load" when a
plist file does not exist. Does it exist? Here's how it is on my system:
$ ls -l /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.mysql5.plist
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 74 Sep 10 21:49 /Library/LaunchDaemons/
org.macports.mysql5.plist -> /opt/local/etc/LaunchDaemons/
org.macports.mysql5/org.macports.mysql5.plist
$ ls -l /opt/local/etc/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.mysql5/
org.macports.mysql5.plist
-rw-r--r-- 2 root wheel 981 Oct 1 01:29 /opt/local/etc/
LaunchDaemons/org.macports.mysql5/org.macports.mysql5.plist
If you do not have these items, what does "port contents mysql5" tell
you? Is the plist shown there?
$ port contents mysql5 | grep plist
/Library/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.mysql5.plist
/opt/local/etc/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.mysql5/
org.macports.mysql5.plist
Do you have the latest MacPorts and port definitions? "sudo port
selfupdate"
