2.4.10 Installing MySQL on Mac OS X ----------------------------------- You can install MySQL on Mac OS X 10.3.x (`Panther') or newer using a Mac OS X binary package in PKG format instead of the binary tarball distribution. Please note that older versions of Mac OS X (for example, 10.1.x or 10.2.x) are *not* supported by this package. The package is located inside a disk image (`.dmg') file that you first need to mount by double-clicking its icon in the Finder. It should then mount the image and display its contents. To obtain MySQL, see *Note getting-mysql::. *Note*: Before proceeding with the installation, be sure to shut down all running MySQL server instances by either using the MySQL Manager Application (on Mac OS X Server) or via `mysqladmin shutdown' on the command line. To actually install the MySQL PKG file, double-click on the package icon. This launches the Mac OS X Package Installer, which guides you through the installation of MySQL. Due to a bug in the Mac OS X package installer, you may see this error message in the destination disk selection dialog: You cannot install this software on this disk. (null) If this error occurs, simply click the `Go Back' button once to return to the previous screen. Then click `Continue' to advance to the destination disk selection again, and you should be able to choose the destination disk correctly. We have reported this bug to Apple and it is investigating this problem. The Mac OS X PKG of MySQL installs itself into `/usr/local/mysql-VERSION' and also installs a symbolic link, `/usr/local/mysql', that points to the new location. If a directory named `/usr/local/mysql' exists, it is renamed to `/usr/local/mysql.bak' first. Additionally, the installer creates the grant tables in the `mysql' database by executing `mysql_install_db'. The installation layout is similar to that of a `tar' file binary distribution; all MySQL binaries are located in the directory `/usr/local/mysql/bin'. The MySQL socket file is created as `/tmp/mysql.sock' by default. See *Note installation-layouts::. MySQL installation requires a Mac OS X user account named `mysql'. A user account with this name should exist by default on Mac OS X 10.2 and up. If you are running Mac OS X Server, a version of MySQL should already be installed. The following table shows the versions of MySQL that ship with Mac OS X Server versions. *Mac OS X Server *MySQL Version* Version* 10.2-10.2.2 3.23.51 10.2.3-10.2.6 3.23.53 10.3 4.0.14 10.3.2 4.0.16 10.4.0 4.1.10a This manual section covers the installation of the official MySQL Mac OS X PKG only. Make sure to read Apple's help information about installing MySQL: Run the `Help View' application, select `Mac OS X Server' help, do a search for `MySQL,' and read the item entitled `Installing MySQL.' For preinstalled versions of MySQL on Mac OS X Server, note especially that you should start `mysqld' with `safe_mysqld' instead of `mysqld_safe' if MySQL is older than version 4.0. If you previously used Marc Liyanage's MySQL packages for Mac OS X from `', you can simply follow the update instructions for packages using the binary installation layout as given on his pages. If you are upgrading from Marc's 3.23.x versions or from the Mac OS X Server version of MySQL to the official MySQL PKG, you also need to convert the existing MySQL privilege tables to the current format, because some new security privileges have been added. See *Note mysql-upgrade::. If you want MySQL to start automatically during system startup, you also need to install the MySQL Startup Item. It is part of the Mac OS X installation disk images as a separate installation package. Simply double-click the `MySQLStartupItem.pkg' icon and follow the instructions to install it. The Startup Item need be installed only once. There is no need to install it each time you upgrade the MySQL package later. The Startup Item for MySQL is installed into `/Library/StartupItems/MySQLCOM'. (Before MySQL 4.1.2, the location was `/Library/StartupItems/MySQL', but that collided with the MySQL Startup Item installed by Mac OS X Server.) Startup Item installation adds a variable `MYSQLCOM=-YES-' to the system configuration file `/etc/hostconfig'. If you want to disable the automatic startup of MySQL, simply change this variable to `MYSQLCOM=-NO-'. On Mac OS X Server, the default MySQL installation uses the variable `MYSQL' in the `/etc/hostconfig' file. The MySQL AB Startup Item installer disables this variable by setting it to `MYSQL=-NO-'. This avoids boot time conflicts with the `MYSQLCOM' variable used by the MySQL AB Startup Item. However, it does not shut down a running MySQL server. You should do that yourself. After the installation, you can start up MySQL by running the following commands in a terminal window. You must have administrator privileges to perform this task. If you have installed the Startup Item, use this command: shell> sudo /Library/StartupItems/MySQLCOM/MySQLCOM start (ENTER YOUR PASSWORD, IF NECESSARY) (PRESS CONTROL-D OR ENTER "EXIT" TO EXIT THE SHELL) If you don't use the Startup Item, enter the following command sequence: shell> cd /usr/local/mysql shell> sudo ./bin/mysqld_safe (ENTER YOUR PASSWORD, IF NECESSARY) (PRESS CONTROL-Z) shell> bg (PRESS CONTROL-D OR ENTER "EXIT" TO EXIT THE SHELL) You should be able to connect to the MySQL server, for example, by running `/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql'. *Note*: The accounts that are listed in the MySQL grant tables initially have no passwords. After starting the server, you should set up passwords for them using the instructions in *Note post-installation::. You might want to add aliases to your shell's resource file to make it easier to access commonly used programs such as `mysql' and `mysqladmin' from the command line. The syntax for `bash' is: alias mysql=/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql alias mysqladmin=/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqladmin For `tcsh', use: alias mysql /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql alias mysqladmin /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqladmin Even better, add `/usr/local/mysql/bin' to your `PATH' environment variable. You can do this by modifying the appropriate startup file for your shell. For more information, see *Note invoking-programs::. If you are upgrading an existing installation, note that installing a new MySQL PKG does not remove the directory of an older installation. Unfortunately, the Mac OS X Installer does not yet offer the functionality required to properly upgrade previously installed packages. To use your existing databases with the new installation, you'll need to copy the contents of the old data directory to the new data directory. Make sure that neither the old server nor the new one is running when you do this. After you have copied over the MySQL database files from the previous installation and have successfully started the new server, you should consider removing the old installation files to save disk space. Additionally, you should also remove older versions of the Package Receipt directories located in `/Library/Receipts/mysql-VERSION.pkg'.

This means that you may see errors when you try to unpack MySQL. If this occurs, you must use GNU `tar' (`gtar') to unpack the distribution. You can find a precompiled copy for Solaris at `http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/os-solaris.html'. You can install MySQL on Solaris using a binary package in PKG format instead of the binary tarball distribution. Before installing using the binary PKG format, you should create the `mysql' user and group, for example: groupadd mysql useradd -g mysql mysql Some basic PKG-handling commands follow: * To add a package: pkgadd -d PACKAGE_NAME.pkg * To remove a package: pkgrm PACKAGE_NAME * To get a full list of installed packages: pkginfo * To get detailed information for a package: pkginfo -l PACKAGE_NAME * To list the files belonging to a package: pkgchk -v PACKAGE_NAME * To get packaging information for an arbitrary file: pkgchk -l -p FILE_NAME For additional information about installing MySQL on Solaris, see *Note solaris::.

MySQL works within the Portable Application Solution Environment (PASE) on the System i series of hardware and will also provide database services for the Zend Core for i5/OS. MySQL for i5/OS is provided as a save file (`.savf') package that can be downloaded and installed directly without any additional installation steps required. MySQL is only supported on i5/OS V5R4 or later releases. The i5/OS PASE must be installed for MySQL to operate. You must be able to login as a user in `*SECOFR' class. You should the installation notes and tips for i5/OS before starting installation. See *Note installation-i5os-notes::. *Note*: The installation package will use an existing configuration if you have previously installed MySQL. The values for the data directory (`DATADIR') and owner of the MySQL files (`USRPRF') specified during the installation will be ignored, and the values determined from the `/etc/my.cnf' will be used instead. If you want to change these parameters during a new install, you should temporarily rename `/etc/my.cnf', install MySQL using the new parameters you want to use, and then merge your previous `/etc/my.cnf' configuration settings with the new `/etc/my.cnf' file that is created during installation. To install MySQL on i5/OS, follow these steps: 1. Create a user profile `MYSQL'. The `MYSQL' user profile will own all the MySQL files and databases and be the active user used when the MySQL server is running. The profile should be disabled so that you cannot log in as the MySQL user. To create a user profile, use `CRTUSRPRF': CRTUSRPRF USRPRF(MYSQL) STATUS(*DISABLED) TEXT('MySQL user id') 2. On the System i machine, create a save file that will be used to receive the downloaded installation save file. The file should be located within the General Purpose Library (`QGPL'): CRTSAVF FILE(QGPL/MYSQLINST) 3. Download the MySQL installation save file in 32-bit (`mysql-5.0.42-i5os-power-32bit.savf') or 64-bit (`mysql-5.0.42-i5os-power-64bit.savf') from MySQL Downloads (http://dev.mysql.com/downloads). 4. You need to FTP the downloaded `.savf' file directly into the `QGPL/MYSQLINST' file on the System i server. You can do this through FTP using the following steps after logging in to the System i machine: ftp> bin ftp> cd qgpl ftp> put mysql-5.0.42-i5os-power.savf mysqlinst 5. Log into the System i server using a user in the `*SECOFR' class, such as the `QSECOFR' user ID. 6. You need to restore the installation library stored in the `.savf' save file: RSTLIB MYSQLINST DEV(*SAVF) SAVF(QGPL/MYSQLINST) 7. You need to execute the installation command, `MYSQLINST/INSMYSQL'. You can specify three parameter settings during installation: * `DIR('/OPT/MYSQL')' sets the installation location for the MySQL files. The directory will be created if it does not already exist. * `DATADIR('/QOPENSYS/MYSAL/DATA')' sets the location of the directory that will be used to store the database files and binary logs. The default setting is `/QOpenSys/mysql/data'. * `USRPRF(MYSQL)' sets the user profile that will own the files that are installed. The profile will be created if it does not already exist. MySQL can be installed anywhere, for this example we will assume MySQL has been installed into `/opt/mysql'. The `MYSQL' user profile that was created earlier in this sequence should be used for the profile: MYSQLINST/INSMYSQL DIR('/opt/mysql') DATADIR('/opt/mysqldata') USRPRF(MYSQL) If you are updating an installation over an existing MySQL installation, you should use the same parameter values that were used when MySQL was originally installed. The installation copies all the necessary files into a directory matching the package version (for example `mysql-5.0.42-i5os-power-32bit'), sets the ownership on those files, sets up the MySQL environment and creates the MySQL configuration file (in `/etc/my.cnf') completing all the steps in a typical binary installation process automatically. If this is a new installation of MySQL, or if the installer detects that this is a new version (because the `/etc/my.cnf' file does not exist), then the initial core MySQL databases will also be created during installation. 8. Once the installation has completed, you can delete the installation file: DLTLIB LIB(MYSQLINST) To start MySQL: 1. Log into the System i server using a user within the `*SECOFR' class, such as the `QSECOFR' user ID. *Note*: You should start `mysqld_safe' using a user that in the PASE environment has the id=0 (the equivalent of the standard Unix `root' user). If you do not use a user with this ID then the system will be unable to change the user when executing `mysqld' as set using `--user' option. If this happens, `mysqld' may be unable to read the files located within the MySQL data directory and the execution will fail. 2. Enter the PASE environment using `call qp2term'. 3. Start the MySQL server by changing to the installation directory and running `mysqld_safe', specifying the user name used to install the server: > cd /opt/mysql/MYSQL-5.0.42-I5OS-POWER-32BIT > bin/mysqld_safe --user=mysql & You should see a message similar to the following: Starting mysqld daemon with databases » from /opt/mysql/mysql-enterprise-5.0.42-i5os-power-32bit/data If you are having problems starting MySQL server, see *Note starting-server::. To stop MySQL: 1. Log into the System i server using the `*SECOFR' class, such as the `QSECOFR' user ID. 2. Enter the PASE environment using `call qp2term'. 3. Stop the MySQL server by changing into the installation directory and running `mysqladmin', specifying the user name used to install the server: > cd /opt/mysql/MYSQL-5.0.42-I5OS-POWER-32BIT > bin/mysqladmin -u root shutdown If the session that you started and stopped MySQL are the same, you may get the log output from `mysqld': STOPPING server from pid file » /opt/mysql/mysql-enterprise-5.0.42-i5os-power-32bit/data/I5DBX.RCHLAND.IBM.COM.pid 070718 10:34:20 mysqld ended If the sessions used to start and stop MySQL are different, you will not receive any confirmation of the shutdown. _Note and tips_ * A problem has been identified with the installation process on DBCS systems. If you are having problems install MySQL on a DBCS system, you need to change your job's coded character set identifier (`CSSID') to 37 (`EBCDIC') before executing the install command, `INSMYSQL'. To do this, determine your existing `CSSID' (using `DSPJOB' and selecting option 2), execute `CHGJOB CSSID(37)', run `INSMYSQL' to install MySQL and then execute `CHGJOB' again with your original `CSSID.' * If you want to use the Perl scripts that are included with MySQL, you need to download the iSeries Tools for Developers (5799-PTL).
