How to Install and Connect to a MYSQL Server on Mac (CLI & GUI)

[@HipHopLuvr22889]

super helpful!! Crazy that this vid is only 2 years old, this information should have been out there so long ago lol

[@nikita-dev]

Haha I’m glad it helpful. Although it’s much easier to setup a MySQL db locally with Docker, which is what I would recommend nowadays

A great guide, Nikita! You helped me a lot!

SO HELPFUL, THANK YOU!

Thank you for the video bro, life saver!

Do I have to do the same thing if I want to connect to a remote MySQL database?

[@xixu8705]

this is great! but I can't start my server. "Command to start the server is not configured. Please set the command that must be used to start the serve.." how to fix it?

[@pedropastoriz]

thank you!!

Mysql server is automatically disconnected and connected repeatedly,, ,, any suggestion to solve it?

[@nikita-dev]

Honestly I would just use docker to run a mysql container

[@contuwontu]

Thank you for this video, really appreciate it! I have downloaded mysql but when running it ( pasted this /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql) an error message says file not found & does not let me enter the password. How do I fix this issue?

[@nikita-dev]

Honestly I would just use Docker to spin up a local MySQL container, it's much easier to set up.

Where did he get the zshrc file from?

[@nikita-dev]

If you download Oh-My-Zsh it will automatically create it for you. You can also just create one manually

[@Hemant-Dev]

tutorial is awesome except u didnt mention how to open .zshrc file :(

[@nikita-dev]

sorry about that! you can open it via any text editor (vim, vscode, etc.). The file should live at your home directory (~/.zshrc). so you can do something like: vim ~/.zshrc
