Whenever I click on the "Stop MySQL Server" on mac, it either can't stop or just restart.
However, rebooting will, but the minute I open the MySQL page, it starts up again!
I tried kill, shutdown on terminal but to no avail...
try these 3 commands below:
brew services stop mysql
sudo launchctl unload /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.mysql.mysql.plist
sudo launchctl unload /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.oracle.oss.mysql.mysqld.plist
Have you tried mysqladmin shutdown ?

I have installed MySql Community Server mysql-5.7.12-osx10.11-x86_64.pkg. After the installation it gave me a root password as root#localhost with randomly generated password
2016-04-22T19:28:25.488115Z 1 [Note] A temporary password is generated for root#localhost: r-SDM,<=6hir
Then i followed the documentation to run the MySQL from command line but got error that command not found
~/Documents/repos/ $: sudo /Library/StartupItems/MySQLCOM/MySQLCOM start
Password:
sudo: /Library/StartupItems/MySQLCOM/MySQLCOM: command not found
I don't see mysqld running in mac activity monitor. Am i doing something wrong ? I followed the documentation
For anyone else who is looking for the answer here is the solution
Option 1
Apple Icon on navbar > System Prefernces > At the bottom you would see Mysql icon - click on it > click on Start MySql Server
Option 2
I haven't tested it yet
to start
sudo launchctl load -F /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.oracle.oss.mysql.mysqld.plist
to stop
sudo launchctl unload -F /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.oracle.oss.mysql.mysqld.plist
I upgraded the mysql from 5.5 to 5.7. I was working very well.
Today when I turned on my mac the mysql was not working and I can't start.
I tried to start by LaunchDaemon on system preferences but nothing happens and I tried by this command on terminal:
sudo launchctl load -F /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.oracle.oss.mysql.mysqld.plist
When I run this command I receive this message:
/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.oracle.oss.mysql.mysqld.plist: service already loaded
but not work...
edit: I have no Idea why, but I restarted my mac and now it's working
first unload
sudo launchctl unload /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.oracle.oss.mysql.mysqld.plist
(replaced from onload )
then
sudo launchctl load -F /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.oracle.oss.mysql.mysqld.plist
I do not know why, but my system automatically renamed the MySQL directory.
I identified that the usr/local/mysql/ directory was now called usr/local/mysql-5.7.21-macos10.13-x86_64/
What I did that solved the problem, was to create a symbolic link
{sudo ln -s mysql-5.7.21-macos10.13-x86_64 mysql}
I rebooted my mac, and everything worked correctly.
you will probably need to identify the new directory name with the command
{ls usr/local}
I'm starting to go nuts over this.
I setup MySQL/Apache/PHP using the tutorial by Coolest Guides On The Planet.
I'm guessing something went wrong as its not working as expected so I want to uninstall and try again.
The trouble is that I can't stop MySQL either by system preferences or command line. I keep trying suggestions on the net but so far unsuccessful.
Can anyone help?
Finally got around the autostart - Thanks to all who contributed and allowed me to see the way.
To stop the auto start I used:
sudo launchctl unload -w /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.mysql.mysql.plist
And to kill the service I used:
sudo pkill mysqld
This is what worked for me. It was listed under a different plist name:
sudo launchctl unload -w com.oracle.oss.mysql.mysqld.plist
For Mac Users
kill -9 {pid} kept restarting the process. This was because I had MySQL Server running. On OSX I had to:
1- System Preferences.
2- Search for mysql.
3- Press the Stop MySQL Server button.
got it from a github issue, and it solved my problem
https://github.com/docker/compose/issues/4950#issuecomment-407145733
brew services stop mysql#5.6 worked for me, when all else failed.
I also got the same problem, unable to stop MySql Sever through system preferences on macOS High Sierra.
I did brew uninstall mysql on my terminal window.
now I am able stop stop MySql Sever through system preferences.
Since mysql was installed on my mac 2 ways binary as well as home brew.
in terminal
kill `pgrep mysqld`
this kills the mysqld process.
If you used brew then you can find out which version you are using by:
launchctl list|grep mysql
this will print something like
92555 0 homebrew.mxcl.mysql#5.7
In my case I'm using mysql#5.7
You can stop using:
brew services stop mysql#5.7
Try with issuing the following command in command line:
ps -xo pid,ppid,stat,command | grep mysqld
It will show you your processes, with their parent ID in the second column. Look for the mysqld and it's parent process. After locating it, issue a:
sudo kill pid
where pid is mysqld's parent process ID.
EDIT
If you want to stop the process from launching again, try:
sudo launchctl unload /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/mysqld.plist
I've installed mysql via homebrew, but stop mysql by using mysql stop command, mysql restart right now.
try to execute command as follow if your mysql was installed via homebrew
brew services stop $(brew list | grep mysql)
To find out the start command for mysqld (using a mac) I can do:
ps aux|grep mysql
I get the following output, which allows me to start mysql server.
/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqld --basedir=/usr/local/mysql --datadir=...
How would I find the necessary command to stop mysql from the command line?
Try:
/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqladmin -u root -p shutdown
Or:
sudo mysqld stop
Or:
sudo /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqld stop
Or:
sudo mysql.server stop
If you install the Launchctl in OSX you can try:
MacPorts
sudo launchctl unload -w /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.mysql.plist
sudo launchctl load -w /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.mysql.plist
Note: this is persistent after reboot.
Homebrew
launchctl unload -w ~/Library/LaunchAgents/homebrew.mxcl.mysql.plist
launchctl load -w ~/Library/LaunchAgents/homebrew.mxcl.mysql.plist
Binary installer
sudo /Library/StartupItems/MySQLCOM/MySQLCOM stop
sudo /Library/StartupItems/MySQLCOM/MySQLCOM start
sudo /Library/StartupItems/MySQLCOM/MySQLCOM restart
I found that in: https://stackoverflow.com/a/102094/58768
There is an alternative way of just killing the daemon process by calling
kill -TERM PID
where PID is the value stored in the file mysqld.pid or the mysqld process id which can be obtained by issuing the command ps -a | grep mysqld.
I did it with next command:
sudo killall mysqld
I found the answer here.
Use
sudo stop mysql
For Windows, you can run this command directly if mysql/bin is in your path.
mysqladmin -u root -p shutdown
Worked for me on mac
a) Stop the process
sudo launchctl list | grep -i mysql
If the result shows anything like: "xxx.xxx.mysqlxxx"
sudo launchctl remove xxx.xxx.mysqlxxx
Example:
sudo launchctl remove org.macports.mysql56-server
b) Disable to autostart the process
sudo launchctl unload -wF /Library/LaunchDaemons/xxx.xxx.mysqlxxx.plist
Example:
sudo launchctl unload -wF /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.mysql56-server.plist
Finally reboot your mac
Note: In some cases if you tried "a)" first, you need to reboot again before try b).
When mysql was installed with Homebrew, it automatically restarts when killed. You need to use the following command:
brew services stop mysql
PS: If you installed a specific version, it will be mysql#X.X
On OSX 10.8 and on, the control for MySQL is available from the System Configs. Open System Preferences, click on Mysql (usually on the very bottom) and start/stop the service from that pane. https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.6/en/osx-installation-launchd.html
The plist file is now under /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.oracle.oss.mysql.mysqld.plist
for Binary installer use this:
to stop:
sudo /Library/StartupItems/MySQLCOM/MySQLCOM stop
to start:
sudo /Library/StartupItems/MySQLCOM/MySQLCOM start
to restart:
sudo /Library/StartupItems/MySQLCOM/MySQLCOM restart
Try killing mysqld four times in a row. It's the only thing that worked for me...
root#ubuntu:/etc/init# killall -KILL mysqld
root#ubuntu:/etc/init# killall -KILL mysqld
root#ubuntu:/etc/init# killall -KILL mysqld
root#ubuntu:/etc/init# killall -KILL mysqld
mysqld: no process found
Just keep killing it over and over until you see "mysqld: no process found".
Kill is definitly the wrong way! The PID will stay, Replicationsjobs will be killed etc. etc.
STOP MySQL Server
/sbin/service mysql stop
START MySQL Server
/sbin/service mysql start
RESTART MySQL Server
/sbin/service mysql restart
Perhaps sudo will be needed if you have not enough rights
What worked for me on CentOS 6.4 was running service mysqld stop as the root user.
I found my answer on nixCraft.
/etc/init.d/mysql stop
service mysql stop
killall -KILL mysql mysqld_safe mysqld
When you see the following information, you success
mysql: no process found
mysqld_safe: no process found
mysqld: no process found
I use this to solve the installation problem of MySQL 5.6 in Ubuntu 15.10 using this link.
During this installation, I encounter the problem saying:
"mysqld_safe A mysqld process already exists"
Just completely stop the mysqld, mysqld_safe, mysql solves the problem.
If my mysql keeps restarting
sudo rm -rf /usr/local/var/mysql/dev.work.err
mysql.server stop
worked for me.
To stop autostart of mysql on boot, the following worked for me with mysql 8.0.12 installed using Homebrew in macOS Mojave 10.14.1:
rm -rf ~/Library/LaunchAgents/homebrew.mxcl.mysql.plist
To stop MariaDB and MySQL server instance:
sudo mysqladmin shutdown
To start MariaDB and MySQL server instance:
mysqld &
To change data ownership for MariaDB and MySQL server instance:
sudo chown -R 755 /usr/local/mariadb/data
Just go to task manager.
Then in process, search mysqld.
right click on mysqld then click on stop.
with this process you can stop it without using commands.
first try this
sudo service apache2 stop
if not, then
sudo mysql stop
if not, then
sudo stop mysql
if not, then
sudo mysqladmin shutdown
I have been there, and I do with many tips, at the end of using tips that I follow will lead me to solved. So if you not solve in this issue, you just do other tips, till your issue get solved. Hopefully it's will help you. Thanks
For mysql 5.7 downloaded from binary file onto MacOS:
sudo launchctl load -F /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.oracle.oss.mysql.mysqld.plist
sudo launchctl unload -F /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.oracle.oss.mysql.mysqld.plist
Following worked for me on my macbook pro:
brew services stop mysql
Incase if you want to stop all brew services:
brew services stop --all
if all else fails, this help me. Every time I tried to kill the process with the last installation it will respawn.
sudo rm -rf /usr/local/var/mysql
brew reinstall mysql
For MAMP
Stop servers (but you may notice MySQL stays on)
Remove or rename /Applications/MAMP/tmp/mysql/ which holds the mysql.pid and mysql.sock.lock files
When you go back to Mamp, you'll see MySQL is now off. You can "Start Servers" again.
I installed mySQL on my Mac. Beside starting the SQL server with mySQL.prefPane tool installed in System Preferences, I want to know the instructions to start from command-line.
I do as follows:
After
su root
I start the mySQL server by command-line, but it produces an error as below:
sh-3.2# /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqld
111028 16:57:43 [Warning] Setting lower_case_table_names=2 because

111028 16:57:43 [ERROR] Fatal error: Please read "Security" section of
the manual to find out how to run mysqld as root!
111028 16:57:43 [ERROR] Aborting
111028 16:57:43 [Note] /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqld: Shutdown complete
Simply:
mysql.server start
mysql.server stop
mysql.server restart
Try /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqld_safe
Example:
shell> sudo /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqld_safe
(Enter your password, if necessary)
(Press Control-Z)
shell> bg
(Press Control-D or enter "exit" to exit the shell)
You can also add these to your bash startup scripts:
export MYSQL_HOME=/usr/local/mysql
alias start_mysql='sudo $MYSQL_HOME/bin/mysqld_safe &'
alias stop_mysql='sudo $MYSQL_HOME/bin/mysqladmin shutdown'
I like the aliases too ... however, I've had issues with MySQLCOM for start ... it fails silently ... My workaround is akin to the others ... ~/.bash_aliases
alias mysqlstart='sudo /usr/local/mysql/support-files/mysql.server start'
alias mysqlstop='sudo /usr/local/mysql/support-files/mysql.server stop'
As this helpful article states:
On OS X to start/stop MySQL from the command line:
sudo /usr/local/mysql/support-files/mysql.server start
sudo /usr/local/mysql/support-files/mysql.server stop
On Linux start/stop from the command line:
/etc/init.d/mysqld start
/etc/init.d/mysqld stop
/etc/init.d/mysqld restart
Some Linux flavours offer the service command too
# service mysqld start
# service mysqld stop
# service mysqld restart
or
# service mysql start
# service mysql stop
# service mysql restart
If you installed it with homebrew, the binary will be somewhere like
/usr/local/Cellar/mysql/5.6.10/bin/mysqld
which means you can start it with
/usr/local/Cellar/mysql/5.6.10/support-files/mysql.server start
and stop it with
/usr/local/Cellar/mysql/5.6.10/support-files/mysql.server stop
Edit: As Jacob Raccuia mentioned, make sure you put the appropriate version of MySQL in the path.
Maybe your mysql-server didn't start.
You can try
/usr/local/bin/mysql.server start
sudo /Library/StartupItems/MySQLCOM/MySQLCOM start
sudo /Library/StartupItems/MySQLCOM/MySQLCOM stop
make alias in .bash_profile
alias start_mysql="/Library/StartupItems/MySQLCOM/MySQLCOM start"
alias stop_mysql="/Library/StartupItems/MySQLCOM/MySQLCOM stop"
and if you are trying to run as root use following safe mode
sudo ./bin/mysqld_safe
if you are still having issues starting, a recommended read:
mysql5.58 unstart server in mac os 10.6.5
For me this solution worked on mac Sierra OS:
sudo /usr/local/bin/mysql.server start
Starting MySQL
SUCCESS!
My MySQL is installed via homebrew on OS X ElCaptain. What fixed it was running
brew doctor
which suggested that I run
sudo chown -R $(whoami):admin /usr/local
Then:
brew update
mysql.server start
mysql is now running
If it's installed with homebrew try just typing down mysql.server in terminal and that should be it.
AFAIK it executable will be under /usr/local/bin/mysql.server.
If not you can always run following "locate mysql.server" which will tell you where to find such file.
If you have MySQL installed through Homebrew these commands will help you:
# For starting
launchctl load ~/Library/LaunchAgents/homebrew.mxcl.mysql.plist
# For stoping
launchctl unload ~/Library/LaunchAgents/homebrew.mxcl.mysql.plist
MySql server startup error 'The server quit without updating PID file '
if you have installed mysql from homebrew
close mysql server from preferences of mac
ps ax | grep mysql
#kill all the mysql process running
sudo kill -9 pid
which mysql
/usr/local/bin/mysql
Admins-MacBook-Pro:bin username$ sudo mysql.server start

On mac Big Sur and MySQL 5.7, I needed to stop/start with:
sudo launchctl load -F /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.oracle.oss.mysql.mysqld.plist
and
sudo launchctl unload -F /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.oracle.oss.mysql.mysqld.plist
This answer came from https://coolestguidesontheplanet.com/start-stop-mysql-from-the-command-line-terminal-osx-linux/
In my case, I had downloaded the mysql server and installed it but I didn't click on the run server that showed up on the last installer page.
In order to start my server manually in the terminal (without adding aliases), I used this in the terminal and it works.
Start Server:
sudo launchctl load -F /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.oracle.oss.mysql.mysqld.plist
Stop Server:
sudo launchctl unload -F /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.oracle.oss.mysql.mysqld.plist

Have you set a root password for your mysql installation? This is different to your sudo root password. Try /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql_secure_installation
