rm -rf ~/Library/PreferencePanes/My* sudo rm -rf /Library/Receipts/mysql* sudo rm -rf /Library/Receipts/MySQL* sudo rm -rf /private/var/db/receipts/*mysql* Please don’t tell me how much better they are then Nano, because I know they are better, Nano is just simpler for those that have never used a terminal editor before.
Yes I recognize someone will want to use vim or emacs and I really don’t give a shit. When you are done you can press Ctr+X and then Y to confirm save and then press ENTER to save again.
This step will open a text editor inside of your terminal, you want to delete the line that says MYSQLCOM=-YES- if you have one. sudo rm /usr/local/mysql sudo rm -rf /usr/local/mysql* sudo rm -rf /Library/StartupItems/MySQLCOM sudo rm -rf /Library/PreferencePanes/My* nano /etc/hostconfig No one likes someone who rushes through these things that need a little patience to happen (just ask your girlfriend/wife). In your terminal type these commands, in this order. Stop MySQL first if you can (I couldn’t my computer started to hang again) Ok, actually that is putting it too nicely, you are completely fucked! It won’t work at all, there was even this guy once that tried to make it work and failed miserably (oh shoot, that idiot that thought it might work was me again).Īlright, now let’s perform the exorcism of MySQL 5.7! The problem is that without that extra 2% you are pretty much screwed. So here is the deal, you have 98% of MySQL installed right now on your computer. Step 2: Remove (“Uninstall”) any sign of MySQL I promise the next part is far more important. Ok, so that might have been drawn out, but I am getting to the point I am bored, so I had to entertain myself.
Press Command + Option + Escape (all together like they are having a three-way) and kill your “installer” process.Hint: you and your terminal need to be BFF’s to continue. Luckily for you, some poor soul (that’s me again…) is about to open up the kimono and tell you all my secrets. For those of you that make a living by developing web apps that run off Mysql in the background (oh right, thats me!) then you still need to find a way to make this work. Right? We all need a little MySQL in our lives.
MAC OS UPGRADE TO SIERRA RSPEC MYSQL ERROR INSTALL
I was able to install the “latest” version of 5.6, but not any version of 5.7. Older versions of the installer also seem to work. I noticed the problem because I had wiped my harddrive clean before upgrading. I hope this helps any Oracle tech reading this right now. The database itself seems to work, it is the install process that breaks. This assumption is made because it appears those users who had successfully installed MySQL 5.7 on previous versions of MacOS and then upgraded to MacOS Sierra are unaffected. It does appear that the problem is not with MySQL 5.7 itself, but rather with the install script. It prevents you from installing older versions of MySQL or “re-installing” MySQL.Force-quitting the installer does not kill the install process (it seems to run in the background.It prevents your computer from safely rebooting (you must force a hard reboot by holding down the power button).It appears to be stalling at about the 95% mark of the install.This problem occurs when installing via the install package distributed from the MySQL Community site.I have talked to other developers running this version of MacOS and confirmed that this is an issue system wide and not isolated to my machine. Currently, as of beta4 of the developer preview of MacOS Sierra, there are problems when downloading the latest version of MySQL server. This is not a post that most of my readers will generally need to worry about, but instead this is more of a PSA for those of you that are running MacOS Sierra and are web developers.
