Answer 1

you can do it with a GUI way, use this link http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/ and download your version. Install mysql and the options.

After that you will find the mysql option in your System Preferences.

I used that way on my MacBook Pro and works.

Answer 2

I managed to resolve this issue.

Steps to follow:

1) I restarted my MAC 2) I removed everything I have installed till now. 3) Did a fresh installation using script and it worked!

Answer 3

I managed to get it with HomeBrew

brew install mysql

Make sure that you have command line tools if you get some error

xcode-select --install
