Comment(by ryandesign@…):

 Replying to [comment:4 Dormilich@…]:
 > "sudo port load mysql5-server" basicly solved the problem,
 Ok, that's good to know. Then the port is working correctly.

 > despite that the upgrade itself failed to install "mysql5-server" (i.e.
 it only installed "mysql5").
 I'm afraid it was not possible to have the mysql5 port install the
 mysql5-server port for you. That is why I had the mysql5 port output this
 message if you attempt to use the now-obsolete +server variant:
 {{{
 The +server variant is obsolete. Please install the mysql5-server port
 instead.
 }}}

 > I recommend putting that (about (un)loading the server) into the HowTo
 section.
 While that recommendation does apply to all server ports, it wouldn't be a
 bad idea to add a bit about upgrades to the how-to. It currently mentions
 a bit about conf files when upgrading apache2, but doesn't mention
 anything about upgrading mysql5, which should probably at least mention
 the use of mysql_upgrade. Again, feel free to edit the wiki.
