/usr/local/var -> self-compiled mysql?

you should consider reading the mysql-manual, especially chapter 4:
installing MySQL. ;-)

The problem is probably that you did not run "mysql_install_db" located 
in /usr/local/mysql/scripts/mysql_install_db  or 
   /usr/local/bin/mysql_install_db 
or if you have installed a binary package
   /usr/bin/mysql_install_db

(you can find that out by typing 
'which mysql_install_db'  or 'locate mysql_install_db')
