I tried adding mysql_enable="YES" to /etc/rc.conf and
rebooted but sockstat -4 | grep mysql showed nothing
and mysql server wasn't running.

@prefix@, then you

script to work:

# - Run this script from within the MySQL installation
directory
# - Create a /etc/my.cnf file with the following
information:
# [mysqld]
# basedir=<path-to-mysql-installation-directory>
# - Add the above to any other configuration file (for
example ~/.my.ini)
# and copy my_print_defaults to /usr/bin
# - Add the path to the mysql-installation-directory
to the basedir variable
# below.
#

should make your changes
# in the /etc/my.cnf, ~/.my.cnf or other MySQL
configuration files.
