I've been trying to install mysql. I removed all installations of mysql from my system. Followed the following steps
Now fresh install brew install mysql and I get an error in hte postinstall step. The terminal output:

Warning: The post-install step did not complete successfully
You can try again using `brew postinstall mysql`
==> Caveats
A "/etc/my.cnf" from another install may interfere with a Homebrew-built
server starting up correctly.
To connect:
mysql -uroot
To have launchd start mysql at login:
ln -sfv /usr/local/opt/mysql/*.plist ~/Library/LaunchAgents
Then to load mysql now:
launchctl load ~/Library/LaunchAgents/homebrew.mxcl.mysql.plist
Or, if you don't want/need launchctl, you can just run:
mysql.server start

I ran into this myself. In MySQL 5.7.x the thread_concurrency variable is removed. (It had been deprecated, which caused warnings, but, unless you looked at the logs, you would not have seen that.) The error occurs because a my.cnf file exists that is setting thread_concurrency.
Sadly, my.cnf may exist in multiple places. I suggest first looking in /usr/local/etc (which is where I found mine). It may be also be written as ~/.my.cnf. If you do not find it at these locations, consider executing
find . -name my.cnf -print
from /usr.
