Sorry, but you haven't enabled sql or mysql, it's not in the debug 
output you posted. It would say so if it was. You would see lines like 
this in your debug output:

  Module: Linked to module rlm_sql
  Module: Instantiating sql

rlm_sql (sql): Driver rlm_sql_mysql (module rlm_sql_mysql) loaded and linked

I see no such in your debug output.

There is no other way, you have to enable it *and* it has to be available.

Are you sure you're editing the right files? I noticed from your debug 
ouput that your config files are located under /usr/local/etc/raddb. 
That only happens when you build the server yourself. If you've got a 
pre-built version the config files are usually under /etc/raddb. If you 
have both a locally built version and a pre-built version installed you 
have to be *very* careful as to which one you're working with. If you 
built the server yourself did you have all the necessary SQL development 
libraries and headers installed? Does your build log show you actually 
compiled rlm_sql and rlm_mysql?
