To start mysqld at boot time you have to copy
support-files/mysql.server to the right place for your system

PLEASE REMEMBER TO SET A PASSWORD FOR THE MySQL root USER !
To do so, start the server, then issue the following commands:

 ./bin/mysqladmin -u root password 'new-password'
 ./bin/mysqladmin -u root -h localhost.localdomain password 'new-password'

Alternatively you can run:

 ./bin/mysql_secure_installation

which will also give you the option of removing the test
databases and anonymous user created by default. This is
strongly recommended for production servers.

See the manual for more instructions.

You can start the MySQL daemon with:

 cd . ; ./bin/mysqld_safe &

You can test the MySQL daemon with mysql-test-run.pl

 cd mysql-test ; perl mysql-test-run.pl

Please report any problems at http://bugs.mysql.com/

New default config file was created as ./my.cnf and
will be used by default by the server when you start it.
You may edit this file to change server settings

WARNING: Default config file /etc/my.cnf exists on the system
This file will be read by default by the MySQL server
If you do not want to use this, either remove it, or use the
--defaults-file argument to mysqld_safe when starting the server

[Warning] TIMESTAMP with implicit DEFAULT value is deprecated. Please use --explicit_defaults_for_timestamp server option (see documentation for more details).

其原因是从 5.6开始，timestamp 的默认行为已经是 deprecated 了。

在MySQL 5.6.6之前，TIMESTAMP的默认行为：

•TIMESTAMP列如果没有明确声明NULL属性，默认为NOT NULL。（而其他数据类型，如果没有显示声明为NOT NULL，则允许NULL值。）设置TIMESTAMP的列值为NULL，会自动存储为当前timestamp。
•表中的第一个TIMESTAMP列，如果没有声明NULL属性、DEFAULT或者 ON UPDATE，会自动分配 DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP和ON UPDATE CURRENT_TIMESTAMP 属性。
•表中第二个TIMESTAMP列，如果没有声明为NULL或者DEFAULT子句，默认自动分配'0000-00-00 00:00:00′。插入行时没有指明改列的值，该列默认分配'0000-00-00 00:00:00′，且没有警告。

要关闭警告，需要加入下面的参数：

[mysqld]
explicit_defaults_for_timestamp=true

重启MySQL后错误消失，这时TIMESTAMP的行为如下：

•TIMESTAMP如果没有显示声明NOT NULL，是允许NULL值的，可以直接设置改列为NULL，而没有默认填充行为。
•TIMESTAMP不会默认分配DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP 和 ON UPDATE CURRENT_TIMESTAMP属性。
•声明为NOT NULL且没有默认子句的TIMESTAMP列是没有默认值的。往数据表中插入列，又没有给TIMESTAMP列赋值时，如果是严格SQL模式，会抛出一 个错误，如果严格SQL模式没有启用，该列会赋值为'0000-00-00 00:00:00′，同时出现一个警告。（这和MySQL处理其他时间类型数据一样，如DATETIME）
（参见：http://www.jb51.net/article/71054.htm）

也就是 explicit_defaults_for_timestamp 关闭了 timestamp 类型字段锁拥有的一些会让人感到奇怪的默认行为，加入了该参数之后，如果还需要为 timestamp类型的字段指定默认行为，那么就需要显示的在创建表时显示的指定。explicit_defaults_for_timestamp 也就是这个意思：显示指定默认值为timestamp类型的字段。
