Why am I denied access and how can I fix it? I googled a lot but still couldn't find the answer
zsh: permission denied: /usr/local/mysql
Probably you haven't created yet new users, and if im right both mariadb and mysql start with only two users with an "invalid" password allowing you to get access only from local.. try "sudo mysql", you should be logged in as the mysql root user and be able to create new standard users
