There are several places where MySQL will pick up a my.cnf file: directly from the mysql_dbdir or /usr/local/etc/my.cnf [The rc.d/mysql-server script automatically adds ${mysql_dbdir}/my.cnf to the list of locations] Judging by the complaints about 'update log no longer supported' I'm guessing that there is somewhere a my.cnf or a .my.cnf file filled with configuration settings appropriate to a much earlier version of MySQL. A good strategy is to grab one of the sample .cnf files from /usr/local/share/mysql (according to the capabilities of your server) copy that into ${mysql_dbdir}/my.cnf and edit to make any local=20 customizations.
