Description:
I've been running 4.1.11 successfully.  I installed 5.0.3 beta and MySQL would not automatically start when the computer boots.  I tracked the problem down to the mysql.server file (in the support-files folder).  For 5.0.3, it is calling 'mysqlmanager' instead of 'mysqld' to start the database.  I have not been able to find any documentation about 'mysqlmanager', so I copied the mysql.server file from 4.1.11 (which utilizes mysqld) to 5.0.3 and now the automatic starting works fine when I boot.

How to repeat:
Use 5.0.3 mysql.server file.

I have same problem. 

Solve of this problem is correcting path to mysqlmanager in file mysql.start
wrong path referrers to sbin directory of mysql. Correct path to mysqlmanager is mysql_basedir/libexec/mysqlmanager

Sorry even changing path to libexec does not solve this problem
