There are red dots, rather than green dots, next to "Active Instance" in the preference pane. Image here. When I click "Start MySQL Server" the lights flash green very briefly before turning red again. In other install tutorials (e.g. this), this doesn't happen.
However, when I try to use command line to start the server, with sudo launchctl load -F /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.oracle.oss.mysql.mysqld.plist I get the line /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.oracle.oss.mysql.mysqld.plist: service already loaded Load failed: 37: Operation already in progress. So it seems like some parts are already loaded.
When I try to launch MySQL (with mysql -u root -p), I get the error:
dyld: Symbol not found: __ZTTNSt3__118basic_stringstreamIcNS_11char_traitsIcEENS_9allocatorIcEEEE Referenced from: /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql (which was built for Mac OS X 12.0) Expected in: /usr/lib/libc++.1.dylib in /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql Abort trap: 6
I get the same error when I try to do mysql --version.
Previously, I was getting the error -bash: mysql: command not found, but then I followed the suggestion here and added the path export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/mysql/bin. (Note that I still get the -bash: mysql.server: command not found when I try mysql.server start, so I don't know if the new path export fixed the problem altogether.) I re-installed MySQL from the DMG but still getting this error.
Additional information that may be relevant:
-I am on Mac OS X 11.6.5.
-I have uninstalled/re-installed MySQL several times
-I copied my.cnf and put it in the "Configuration File" spot in preferences, with the file path: /private/etc/my.cnf. This is also a part where it's possible I went wrong, since I don't exactly know what I'm doing; I just tried to follow directions from here, here and used the actual code from here. I also tried putting the my.cnf file in /usr/local/mysql, as some other sources seem to suggest. This did not work either.
Solved: what I needed to do was uninstall MySQL and instead download an archived version of it--8.0.24 instead of the latest, 8.0.32, because it hadn't been compatible with my Mac version.
I'm running windows 10. I am evaluating software that was written in cygwin / mysql / python.
I installed cygwin from the mirrors.cs.vt.edu site. According the setup program mysql is installed.
When I try to run mysql I get "-bash: mysql: command not found"
I found a note on stackoverflow that says "OH, just use apt-cyg", but when I do that it says
"-bash: apt-cyg: command not found"
Another note said "Oh, use lynx to install apt-cyg", but it can't find that either.
Dear god, can someone please explain what I have to install? Apparently, it's already in there someplace.
Also can't download and build package X, because it can't find gcc either.
The only that works are ls, pwd, find, python, a few other things.
While trying to install Perl modules like JSON::XS or YAML::XS, i receive the same error:
XS.xs:1:10: fatal error: 'EXTERN.h' file not found
I use MacBook, xCode is up to date, everything else that could help is up to date too.
Since OS X El Capitan, Apple introduced System Integrity Protection which restricts writing to /usr/lib /usr/bin and other sensitive directories (even to root or sudo user) that are used by the installation of Perl bundled with the Operating System. This can cause issues when it comes to installing new modules and also if trying to install XS modules ( those linked to external C libraries ).
For this reason you should not consider the default Perl installation as a working development environment, especially if you are installing custom modules.
Check out this thread on PM and others. I had since El-Capitan managed to solve this before by manually building from tarball and adding a few params or environment variables to set the paths believing that it would be best to retain use of the system Perl but this is not the way to go. This makes your environment difficult to build but also brittle and sensitive to OS updates that may either break things in many different ways.
The best practice seems to be starting with a Perl using brew install perl and work in this environment, remembering to setup your bash_profile as directed by the installer.
Also worth remembering to do a brew link perl. If you receive warnings about this clobbering what looks like system Perl libraries don't worry - these are likely modules that were installed by you over the top and it will cause you less trouble to link over these. If you have concerns, make a note of which module installs will be cleared and re-install them once your environment is configured ( ie your module installer approach is configured using cpanm or sticking with the old perl -MCPAN -e shell etc)
This new Perl setup from brew eliminates the need to continuing running sudo which adds another layer of things that can go wrong as environment variables don't follow through and permission conflicts arise etc.
Finally to simplify package/module installation I suggest doing a brew install cpanminus. If you had previously already installed this, you can ensure the paths etc are configured by doing a brew reinstall cpanminus
If you want to take it another step further then you can install perlbrew as well which will give you the ability to run multiple versions of Perl as your user and configure these with their own libs and modules which can be very useful particularly if aligning with your production environment for testing etc.
One problem you may face if moving from system Perl to this kind of approach is needing to deal with any hangovers from installing things with sudo. It wis worth taking a little time to get all this set up right though and your issues going forward will be greatly reduced and you won't be left with that nagging feeling that you don't want to change anything for fear of it all breaking.
I have also come across a Perl Blog Article that suggests a fix for XS issues with perlbrew on Mojave
This Gist described updating your cpan shell install root though this shouldn't be necessary unless your cpan is stuck in an old config after taking steps above.
I've also raised this as a new issue on PerlMonks
After reading https://developer.apple.com/documentation/xcode_release_notes/xcode_10_release_notes#3035624 and installing the Additional headers via
sudo installer -pkg /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/Packages/macOS_SDK_headers_for_macOS_10.14.pkg -target /
I successfully compiled without the missing 'EXTERN.h' error
In order to follow the common advice I also tried with Perlbrew to install a dedicated development version of Perl. Especially with the advice in mind First, do not use the system Perl on MacOS. The installed version is for Apple, not for you (see the discussion here: https://www.perlmonks.org/?node_id=1224727).
Unfortunately, the following error occurred:
Test Summary Report
-------------------
porting/libperl.t (Wstat: 65280 Tests: 35 Failed: 0)
Non-zero exit status: 255
Parse errors: No plan found in TAP output

##### Brew Failed #####
Therefore, I decided to install it the following way (and not following the advice due to the error).
Even after having the above mentioned macOS SDK headers already installed on Catalina (macOS 10.15.2) it didn't work for me. I faced the issue during the installation of the Perl module Mac-SystemDirectory-0.13. The following steps (by identifying the missing file in hope of having a more generic approach for more or less equivalent issues) did the trick:
Locate the header file (in this case EXTERN.h)
sudo find /Library -type f -name EXTERN.h
/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX10.14.sdk/System/Library/Perl/5.18/darwin-thread-multi-2level/CORE/EXTERN.h
/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX10.15.sdk/System/Library/Perl/5.28/darwin-thread-multi-2level/CORE/EXTERN.h
/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX10.15.sdk/System/Library/Perl/5.18/darwin-thread-multi-2level/CORE/EXTERN.h
Ensure the installed Perl version (here 5.18) match the header file:
perl -v | grep version
This is perl 5, version 18, subversion 4 (v5.18.4) built for darwin-thread-multi-2level
Export the path for the C-Compiler (note MacOSX10.15.sdk for Catalina and Perl Version 5.18)
export CPATH=/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX10.15.sdk/System/Library/Perl/5.18/darwin-thread-multi-2level/CORE
Invoke the Makefile.PL with perl
perl Makefile.PL
BTW — For anybody who's still struggling with this, my workaround was:
bash% module="Sub::Util" # For example
bash% cpanm --configure-args="INC=-I/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX.sdk/System/Library/Perl/5.18/darwin-thread-multi-2level/CORE" "$module"
Please try this
CPATH=$(dirname $(find /usr/local/Cellar/ -name EXTERN.h)) cpan JSON::XS
For Big Sur and perl 5.30, EXTERN.h is at /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX11.3.sdk/System/Library/Perl/5.30/darwin-thread-multi-2level/CORE
I'm trying to upgrade CPAN itself and got that error. But I have /usr/bin/cpan and I can't write there so I have to tweak it to write the updated version to /usr/local/bin/cpan.
No promises, but yum install perl-devel worked for me.
As #huyz has helpfully pointed out, if you hit this error on a Mac, you don't have this option, even though this is probably your issue, and you need to follow one of the above methods of getting a version of Perl that isn't missing important chunks, as per other answers.
But if, dear reader, you hit this error on a linux host, as I did, then this might be an option for you.
Building on what E Lisse suggested, you might also have luck looking in
/System/Volumes/Data/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/
For example:
CPATH=$(dirname $(find /System/Volumes/Data/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/ -name EXTERN.h)) cpan JSON::XS
You could also find where EXTERN.h is located and add that to your shell by default, e.g. in your .bashrc or .zshrc file:
export CPATH=/System/Volumes/Data/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX12.sdk/System/Library/Perl/5.18/darwin-thread-multi-2level/CORE/
I'm beginning to use Grunt.js to manage my workflow for repeated tasks and right now I'm stuck on database deployment (a huge source of potential errors for me).
I've installed the grunt-deployment package and I can pull down the remote database, as well as push to it (theoretically). However locally I get the error:
/bin/sh: mysql: command not found
Or
/bin/sh: mysqldump: command not found
I'm not sure where I should be adding those commands, or how. I'm also using AMPPS for my local development.
The environment I'm in is Mac OS X, using AMPPS as my apache/mysql server.
Put AMPPS MySQL in PATH environment and all should be fine.
export PATH=$PATH:/Applications/AMPPS/mysql/bin
Using mysql directly from the command line (running on Ubuntu 9.10, standard bash terminal), I am unable to use certain keyboard buttons like:
Delete, Control-(arrow right), Control-(arrow left)
Which gets returned to me as:
~;5C;5D
respectively. I'm assuming there must be a flag in mysql that fixes this but I have been unable to find one. Is there a .mysqlconfig file to edit to make this happen on startup?
According to this thread and mysql --version, mysql is compiled with editline instead of readline. From that thread:
I had to add create an .editrc file with the following lines to get ctrl-R and DELETE to work.
bind "\e[3~" ed-delete-next-char
bind "^R" em-inc-search-prev
Although that didn't work for me.
Another suggestion from that thread did work:
$ sudo apt-get install rlwrap
Then add an alias in ~/.bashrc
alias mysql='rlwrap -a mysql'
This problem may be specific to Ubuntu 9.10
