Load more results. Apple Footer Apple Support. MySQL Utilities 1.5.6 will not install for me on my El Capitan system. The install file I'm trying to use is 'mysql-utilities-1.5.6-osx10.9.dmg', which appears to be the latest version available. The message I get during an attempt to install is: 'This package is incompatible with this version of OS X and may fail to install.' So finally I have decided to learn PHP and I use Mac for my personal usage, so the first step was to install Apache, PHP and MySql on my Mac OS X. My Mac OS is Mountain Lion (10.8), so for earlier versions you might need to make some changes in the steps provided below. Duplicate cleaner for mac.

MySQL 5.7.21 for Mac OS X 10.13 ignoring my.cnf directives for character set and collation

Mysql Dmg For Mac Os X 10 11

I've installed the latest .dmg binary for MySQL 5.7.21 and the MySQL preference pane on MacOS 10.13.3. The preference pane starts and stops MySQL as expected, except that:
1) If a my.cnf file is installed anywhere except in ~/.my.cnf the preference pane will not start the server. Permissions on the file are set to 644. I've tried installing in:
/etc/my.cnf # Won't work- server won't start
/etc/mysql/my.cnf # Won't work- server won't start
/usr/local/mysql/etc/my.cnf # Won't work- server won't start
~/.my.cnf # Works, but many directives ignored- server starts
2) Many of the collation and character set directives in ~/.my.cnf are being ignored and I can't figure out how to change the default character set(s) from 'latin1', or the default collation(s) from 'latin1_swedish_ci'.
Outputting 'mysql --print-defaults' displays:
--port=3306 --socket=/tmp/mysql.sock --default-character-set=utf8mb4 --default-character-set=utf8mb4
However, running 'mysqladmin variables' indicates the following character set and collation settings are in effect:
character_set_client = latin1
character_set_connection = latin1
character_set_database = latin1
character_set_results = latin1
character_set_server = latin1
character_set_system = utf8
collation_connection = latin1_swedish_ci
collation_database = latin1_swedish_ci
collation_server = latin1_swedish_ci
In general the documentation for configuring MacOS is highly inconsistent and in many cases incorrect..
At this point I've been unable to successfully set the desired defaults for character set and collation.
Can anyone point to a way to successfully set the default character set and collation directives for client, mysqld, etc. ?

macOS Update: While these instructions still work, there are new posts for recent versions of macOS, the latest being Install Apache, PHP, and MySQL on macOS Mojave.

PHP Update: Mac OS X Sierra comes pre-installed with PHP version 5.6, however the latest version of PHP is 7.1. After you complete this post, you should upgrade PHP on Mac OS X.

Note: This post is for new installations. If you have installed Apache, PHP, and MySQL for Mac OS El Capitan, read my post on Updating Apache, PHP, and MySQL for Mac OS X Sierra.

Mac OS X runs atop UNIX. So most UNIX software installs easily on Mac OS X. Furthermore, Apache and PHP come packaged with Mac OS X. To create a local web server, all you need to do is configure Apache and install MySQL.

I am aware of the web server software available for Mac OS X, notably MAMP. These get you started quickly. But they forego the learning experience and, as most developers report, can become difficult to manage.

Running Commands

Download Mysql Dmg For Mac Os X

First, open the Terminal app and switch to the root user so you can run the commands in this post without any permission issues:

Enable Apache on Mac OS X

Verify It works! by accessing http://localhost

Enable PHP for Apache

First, make a backup of the default Apache configuration. This is good practice and serves as a comparison against future versions of Mac OS X.

Now edit the Apache configuration. Feel free to use TextEdit if you are not familiar with vi.

Mac Os X Versions

Uncomment the following line (remove #):

Restart Apache:

You can verify PHP is enabled by creating a phpinfo() page in your DocumentRoot.

The default DocumentRoot for Mac OS X Sierra is /Library/WebServer/Documents. You can verify this from your Apache configuration.

Now create the phpinfo() page in your DocumentRoot:

Verify PHP by accessing http://localhost/phpinfo.php

Install MySQL on Mac OS X Sierra

Download and install the latest MySQL generally available release DMG for Mac OS X.

The README suggests creating aliases for mysql and mysqladmin. However there are other commands that are helpful such as mysqldump. Instead, you can update your path to include /usr/local/mysql/bin.

Note: You will need to open a new Terminal window or run the command above for your path to update.

Finally, you should run mysql_secure_installation. While this isn't necessary, it's good practice to secure your database.

Connect PHP and MySQL

You need to ensure PHP and MySQL can communicate with one another. There are several options to do so. I do the following:

Additional Configuration (optional)

The default configuration for Apache 2.4 on Mac OS X seemed pretty lean. For example, common modules like mod_rewrite were disabled. You may consider enabling this now to avoid forgetting they are disabled in the future.

I edited my Apache Configuration:

I uncommented the following lines (remove #):

If you develop multiple projects and would like each to have a unique url, you can configure Apache VirtualHosts for Mac OS X.

If you would like to install PHPMyAdmin, return to my original post on installing Apache, PHP, and MySQL on Mac OS X.
