This chapter describes how to obtain and install MySQL. A summary of the procedure follows and later sections provide the details. If you plan to upgrade an existing version of MySQL to a newer version rather than install MySQL for the first time, see Section 2.10.1, “Upgrading MySQL”, for information about upgrade procedures and about issues that you should consider before upgrading.
If you are interested in migrating to MySQL from another database system, see Section A.8, “MySQL 8.0 FAQ: Migration”, which contains answers to some common questions concerning migration issues.
Installation of MySQL generally follows the steps outlined here:
Determine whether MySQL runs and is supported on your platform.
Please note that not all platforms are equally suitable for running MySQL, and that not all platforms on which MySQL is known to run are officially supported by Oracle Corporation. For information about those platforms that are officially supported, see http://www.mysql.com/support/supportedplatforms/database.html on the MySQL website.
Choose which distribution to install.
Several versions of MySQL are available, and most are available in several distribution formats. You can choose from pre-packaged distributions containing binary (precompiled) programs or source code. When in doubt, use a binary distribution. Oracle also provides access to the MySQL source code for those who want to see recent developments and test new code. To determine which version and type of distribution you should use, see Section 2.1.1, “Which MySQL Version and Distribution to Install”.
Download the distribution that you want to install.
For instructions, see Section 2.1.2, “How to Get MySQL”. To verify the integrity of the distribution, use the instructions in Section 2.1.3, “Verifying Package Integrity Using MD5 Checksums or GnuPG”.
Install the distribution.
To install MySQL from a binary distribution, use the instructions in Section 2.2, “Installing MySQL on Unix/Linux Using Generic Binaries”.
To install MySQL from a source distribution or from the current development source tree, use the instructions in Section 2.8, “Installing MySQL from Source”.
Perform any necessary postinstallation setup.
After installing MySQL, see Section 2.9, “Postinstallation Setup and Testing” for information about making sure the MySQL server is working properly. Also refer to the information provided in Section 2.9.4, “Securing the Initial MySQL Account”. This section describes how to secure the initial MySQL
rootuser account, which has no password until you assign one. The section applies whether you install MySQL using a binary or source distribution.If you want to run the MySQL benchmark scripts, Perl support for MySQL must be available. See Section 2.11, “Perl Installation Notes”.
Instructions for installing MySQL on different platforms and environments is available on a platform by platform basis:
Unix, Linux, FreeBSD
For instructions on installing MySQL on most Linux and Unix platforms using a generic binary (for example, a
.tar.gzpackage), see Section 2.2, “Installing MySQL on Unix/Linux Using Generic Binaries”.For information on building MySQL entirely from the source code distributions or the source code repositories, see Section 2.8, “Installing MySQL from Source”
For specific platform help on installation, configuration, and building from source see the corresponding platform section:
Linux, including notes on distribution specific methods, see Section 2.5, “Installing MySQL on Linux”.
IBM AIX, see Installing MySQL on Solaris.
FreeBSD, see Section 2.7, “Installing MySQL on FreeBSD”.
Microsoft Windows
For instructions on installing MySQL on Microsoft Windows, using either the MySQL Installer or Zipped binary, see Section 2.3, “Installing MySQL on Microsoft Windows”.
For information about managing MySQL instances, see Section 2.3.4, “MySQL Notifier”.
For details and instructions on building MySQL from source code using Microsoft Visual Studio, see Section 2.8, “Installing MySQL from Source”.
OS X
For installation on OS X, including using both the binary package and native PKG formats, see Section 2.4, “Installing MySQL on macOS”.
For information on making use of an OS X Launch Daemon to automatically start and stop MySQL, see Section 2.4.3, “Installing and Using the MySQL Launch Daemon”.
For information on the MySQL Preference Pane, see Section 2.4.4, “Installing and Using the MySQL Preference Pane”.
The immediately following sections contain the information necessary to choose, download, and verify your distribution. The instructions in later sections of the chapter describe how to install the distribution that you choose. For binary distributions, see the instructions at Section 2.2, “Installing MySQL on Unix/Linux Using Generic Binaries” or the corresponding section for your platform if available. To build MySQL from source, use the instructions in Section 2.8, “Installing MySQL from Source”.
MySQL is available on a number of operating systems and platforms. For information about those platforms that are officially supported, see http://www.mysql.com/support/supportedplatforms/database.html on the MySQL website.
When preparing to install MySQL, decide which version and distribution format (binary or source) to use.
First, decide whether to install a development release or a General Availability (GA) release. Development releases have the newest features, but are not recommended for production use. GA releases, also called production or stable releases, are meant for production use. We recommend using the most recent GA release.
The naming scheme in MySQL 8.0 uses release names that consist of three numbers and an optional suffix; for example, mysql-8.0.1-dmr. The numbers within the release name are interpreted as follows:
The first number (8) is the major version number.
The second number (0) is the minor version number. Taken together, the major and minor numbers constitute the release series number. The series number describes the stable feature set.
The third number (1) is the version number within the release series. This is incremented for each new bugfix release. In most cases, the most recent version within a series is the best choice.
Release names can also include a suffix to indicate the stability level of the release. Releases within a series progress through a set of suffixes to indicate how the stability level improves. The possible suffixes are:
dmr indicates a development milestone release (DMR). MySQL development uses a milestone model, in which each milestone introduces a small subset of thoroughly tested features. From one milestone to the next, feature interfaces may change or features may even be removed, based on feedback provided by community members who try these earily releases. Features within milestone releases may be considered to be of pre-production quality.
rc indicates a Release Candidate (RC). Release candidates are believed to be stable, having passed all of MySQL's internal testing. New features may still be introduced in RC releases, but the focus shifts to fixing bugs to stabilize features introduced earlier within the series.
Absence of a suffix indicates a General Availability (GA) or Production release. GA releases are stable, having successfully passed through the earlier release stages, and are believed to be reliable, free of serious bugs, and suitable for use in production systems.
Development within a series begins with DMR releases, followed by RC releases, and finally reaches GA status releases.
After choosing which MySQL version to install, decide which distribution format to install for your operating system. For most use cases, a binary distribution is the right choice. Binary distributions are available in native format for many platforms, such as RPM packages for Linux or DMG packages for OS X. Distributions are also available in more generic formats such as Zip archives or compressed tar files. On Windows, you can use the MySQL Installer to install a binary distribution.
Under some circumstances, it may be preferable to install MySQL from a source distribution:
You want to install MySQL at some explicit location. The standard binary distributions are ready to run at any installation location, but you might require even more flexibility to place MySQL components where you want.
You want to configure mysqld with features that might not be included in the standard binary distributions. Here is a list of the most common extra options used to ensure feature availability:
-DWITH_LIBWRAP=1for TCP wrappers support.-DWITH_ZLIB={system|bundled}for features that depend on compression-DWITH_DEBUG=1for debugging support
For additional information, see Section 2.8.4, “MySQL Source-Configuration Options”.
You want to configure mysqld without some features that are included in the standard binary distributions.
You want to read or modify the C and C++ code that makes up MySQL. For this purpose, obtain a source distribution.
Source distributions contain more tests and examples than binary distributions.
Check our downloads page at http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/ for information about the current version of MySQL and for downloading instructions. For a complete up-to-date list of MySQL download mirror sites, see http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mirrors.html. You can also find information there about becoming a MySQL mirror site and how to report a bad or out-of-date mirror.
For RPM-based Linux platforms that use Yum as their package management system, MySQL can be installed using the MySQL Yum Repository. See Section 2.5.1, “Installing MySQL on Linux Using the MySQL Yum Repository” for details.
For Debian-based Linux platforms, MySQL can be installed using the MySQL APT Repository. See Section 2.5.2, “Installing MySQL on Linux Using the MySQL APT Repository” for details.
For SUSE Linux Enterprise Server (SLES) platforms, MySQL can be installed using the MySQL SLES Repository. See Section 2.5.3, “Installing MySQL on Linux Using the MySQL SLES Repository” for details.
To obtain the latest development source, see Section 2.8.3, “Installing MySQL Using a Development Source Tree”.
After downloading the MySQL package that suits your needs and before attempting to install it, make sure that it is intact and has not been tampered with. There are three means of integrity checking:
MD5 checksums
Cryptographic signatures using
GnuPG, the GNU Privacy GuardFor RPM packages, the built-in RPM integrity verification mechanism
The following sections describe how to use these methods.
If you notice that the MD5 checksum or GPG signatures do not match, first try to download the respective package one more time, perhaps from another mirror site.
After you have downloaded a MySQL package, you should make sure that its MD5 checksum matches the one provided on the MySQL download pages. Each package has an individual checksum that you can verify against the package that you downloaded. The correct MD5 checksum is listed on the downloads page for each MySQL product, and you will compare it against the MD5 checksum of the file (product) that you download.
Each operating system and setup offers its own version of tools
for checking the MD5 checksum. Typically the command is named
md5sum, or it may be named
md5, and some operating systems do not ship
it at all. On Linux, it is part of the GNU
Text Utilities package, which is available for a wide
range of platforms. You can also download the source code from
http://www.gnu.org/software/textutils/. If you
have OpenSSL installed, you can use the command openssl
md5 package_name instead. A
Windows implementation of the md5 command
line utility is available from
http://www.fourmilab.ch/md5/.
winMd5Sum is a graphical MD5 checking tool
that can be obtained from
http://www.nullriver.com/index/products/winmd5sum.
Our Microsoft Windows examples will assume the name
md5.exe.
Linux and Microsoft Windows examples:
shell> md5sum mysql-standard-8.0.13-linux-i686.tar.gz
aaab65abbec64d5e907dcd41b8699945 mysql-standard-8.0.13-linux-i686.tar.gz
shell> md5.exe mysql-installer-community-8.0.13.msi
aaab65abbec64d5e907dcd41b8699945 mysql-installer-community-8.0.13.msi
You should verify that the resulting checksum (the string of hexadecimal digits) matches the one displayed on the download page immediately below the respective package.
Make sure to verify the checksum of the archive
file (for example, the .zip,
.tar.gz, or .msi
file) and not of the files that are contained inside of the
archive. In other words, verify the file before extracting its
contents.
Another method of verifying the integrity and authenticity of a package is to use cryptographic signatures. This is more reliable than using MD5 checksums, but requires more work.
We sign MySQL downloadable packages with GnuPG (GNU Privacy Guard). GnuPG is an Open Source alternative to the well-known Pretty Good Privacy (PGP) by Phil Zimmermann. Most Linux distributions ship with GnuPG installed by default. Otherwise, see http://www.gnupg.org/ for more information about GnuPG and how to obtain and install it.
To verify the signature for a specific package, you first need
to obtain a copy of our public GPG build key, which you can
download from http://pgp.mit.edu/. The key that
you want to obtain is named
mysql-build@oss.oracle.com. Alternatively,
you can copy and paste the key directly from the following text:

To import the build key into your personal public GPG keyring,
use gpg --import. For example, if you have
saved the key in a file named
mysql_pubkey.asc, the import command looks
like this:
shell> gpg --import mysql_pubkey.asc
gpg: key 5072E1F5: public key "MySQL Release Engineering
<mysql-build@oss.oracle.com>" imported
gpg: Total number processed: 1
gpg: imported: 1
gpg: no ultimately trusted keys found
You can also download the key from the public keyserver using
the public key id, 5072E1F5:
shell> gpg --recv-keys 5072E1F5 gpg: requesting key 5072E1F5 from hkp server keys.gnupg.net gpg: key 5072E1F5: "MySQL Release Engineering <mysql-build@oss.oracle.com>" 1 new user ID gpg: key 5072E1F5: "MySQL Release Engineering <mysql-build@oss.oracle.com>" 53 new signatures gpg: no ultimately trusted keys found gpg: Total number processed: 1 gpg: new user IDs: 1 gpg: new signatures: 53
If you want to import the key into your RPM configuration to validate RPM install packages, you should be able to import the key directly:
shell> rpm --import mysql_pubkey.asc
If you experience problems or require RPM specific information, see Section 2.1.3.4, “Signature Checking Using RPM”.
After you have downloaded and imported the public build key,
download your desired MySQL package and the corresponding
signature, which also is available from the download page. The
signature file has the same name as the distribution file with
an .asc extension, as shown by the examples
in the following table.
Table 2.1 MySQL Package and Signature Files for Source files
| File Type | File Name |
|---|---|
| Distribution file | mysql-standard-8.0.13-linux-i686.tar.gz |
| Signature file | mysql-standard-8.0.13-linux-i686.tar.gz.asc |
Make sure that both files are stored in the same directory and then run the following command to verify the signature for the distribution file:
shell> gpg --verify package_name.asc
If the downloaded package is valid, you will see a "Good signature" similar to:
shell> gpg --verify mysql-standard-8.0.13-linux-i686.tar.gz.asc
gpg: Signature made Tue 01 Feb 2011 02:38:30 AM CST using DSA key ID 5072E1F5
gpg: Good signature from "MySQL Release Engineering <mysql-build@oss.oracle.com>"
The Good signature message indicates that the
file signature is valid, when compared to the signature listed
on our site. But you might also see warnings, like so:
shell> gpg --verify mysql-standard-8.0.13-linux-i686.tar.gz.asc
gpg: Signature made Wed 23 Jan 2013 02:25:45 AM PST using DSA key ID 5072E1F5
gpg: checking the trustdb
gpg: no ultimately trusted keys found
gpg: Good signature from "MySQL Release Engineering <mysql-build@oss.oracle.com>"
gpg: WARNING: This key is not certified with a trusted signature!
gpg: There is no indication that the signature belongs to the owner.
Primary key fingerprint: A4A9 4068 76FC BD3C 4567 70C8 8C71 8D3B 5072 E1F5
That is normal, as they depend on your setup and configuration. Here are explanations for these warnings:
gpg: no ultimately trusted keys found: This means that the specific key is not "ultimately trusted" by you or your web of trust, which is okay for the purposes of verifying file signatures.
WARNING: This key is not certified with a trusted signature! There is no indication that the signature belongs to the owner.: This refers to your level of trust in your belief that you possess our real public key. This is a personal decision. Ideally, a MySQL developer would hand you the key in person, but more commonly, you downloaded it. Was the download tampered with? Probably not, but this decision is up to you. Setting up a web of trust is one method for trusting them.
See the GPG documentation for more information on how to work with public keys.
The Section 2.1.3.2, “Signature Checking Using GnuPG” section describes
how to verify MySQL downloads using GPG. That guide also applies
to Microsoft Windows, but another option is to use a GUI tool
like Gpg4win. You
may use a different tool but our examples are based on Gpg4win,
and utilize its bundled Kleopatra GUI.
Download and install Gpg4win, and then load Kleopatra. The dialog should look similar to:
Next, add the MySQL Release Engineering certificate. Do this by clicking , . Type "Mysql Release Engineering" into the search box and press .
Select the "MySQL Release Engineering" certificate. The Fingerprint and Key-ID must be "5072E1F5", or choose to confirm the certificate is valid. Now, import it by clicking . An import dialog will be displayed, choose , and this certificate will now be listed under the Imported Certificates tab.
Next, configure the trust level for our certificate. Select our certificate, then from the main menu select , . We suggest choosing I believe checks are very accurate for our certificate, as otherwise you might not be able to verify our signature. Select I believe checks are very accurate to enable "full trust" and then press .
Next, verify the downloaded MySQL package file. This requires
files for both the packaged file, and the signature. The
signature file must have the same name as the packaged file but
with an appended .asc extension, as shown
by the example in the following table. The signature is linked
to on the downloads page for each MySQL product. You must create
the .asc file with this signature.
Table 2.2 MySQL Package and Signature Files for MySQL Installer for Microsoft Windows
| File Type | File Name |
|---|---|
| Distribution file | mysql-installer-community-8.0.13.msi |
| Signature file | mysql-installer-community-8.0.13.msi.asc |
Make sure that both files are stored in the same directory and
then run the following command to verify the signature for the
distribution file. Either drag and drop the signature
(.asc) file into Kleopatra, or load the
dialog from , , and then choose either the
.msi or .asc file.
Click to check the file. The two most common results will look like the following, and although the yellow warning looks problematic, the following means that the file check passed with success. You may now run this installer.
Seeing a red "The signature is bad" error means the file is invalid. Do not execute the MSI file if you see this error.
The Section 2.1.3.2, “Signature Checking Using GnuPG” section explains
why you probably don't see a green Good
signature result.
For RPM packages, there is no separate signature. RPM packages have a built-in GPG signature and MD5 checksum. You can verify a package by running the following command:
shell> rpm --checksig package_name.rpm
Example:
shell> rpm --checksig MySQL-server-8.0.13-0.linux_glibc2.5.i386.rpm
MySQL-server-8.0.13-0.linux_glibc2.5.i386.rpm: md5 gpg OK
If you are using RPM 4.1 and it complains about (GPG)
NOT OK (MISSING KEYS: GPG#5072e1f5), even though you
have imported the MySQL public build key into your own GPG
keyring, you need to import the key into the RPM keyring
first. RPM 4.1 no longer uses your personal GPG keyring (or
GPG itself). Rather, RPM maintains a separate keyring because
it is a system-wide application and a user's GPG public
keyring is a user-specific file. To import the MySQL public
key into the RPM keyring, first obtain the key, then use
rpm --import to import the key. For
example:
shell> gpg --export -a 5072e1f5 > 5072e1f5.asc shell> rpm --import 5072e1f5.asc
Alternatively, rpm also supports loading the key directly from a URL, and you can use this manual page:
shell> rpm --import http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/checking-gpg-signature.html
If you need to obtain the MySQL public key, see Section 2.1.3.2, “Signature Checking Using GnuPG”.
The installation layout differs for different installation types (for example, native packages, binary tarballs, and source tarballs), which can lead to confusion when managing different systems or using different installation sources. The individual layouts are given in the corresponding installation type or platform chapter, as described following. Note that the layout of installations from vendors other than Oracle may differ from these layouts.
In some cases, the compiler used to build MySQL affects the features available for use. The notes in this section apply for binary distributions provided by Oracle Corporation or that you compile yourself from source.
icc (Intel C++ Compiler) Builds
A server built with icc has these characteristics:
SSL support is not included.
Oracle provides a set of binary distributions of MySQL. These
include generic binary distributions in the form of compressed
tar files (files with a
.tar.gz extension) for a number of platforms,
and binaries in platform-specific package formats for selected
platforms.
This section covers the installation of MySQL from a compressed tar file binary distribution on Unix/Linux platforms. For other platform-specific binary package formats, see the other platform-specific sections in this manual. For example, for Windows distributions, see Section 2.3, “Installing MySQL on Microsoft Windows”. See Section 2.1.2, “How to Get MySQL” on how to obtain MySQL in different distribution formats.
MySQL compressed tar file binary distributions
have names of the form
mysql-,
where VERSION-OS.tar.gzVERSION8.0.13), and
OS indicates the type of operating system
for which the distribution is intended (for example,
pc-linux-i686 or winx64).
If you have previously installed MySQL using your operating system native package management system, such as Yum or APT, you may experience problems installing using a native binary. Make sure your previous MySQL installation has been removed entirely (using your package management system), and that any additional files, such as old versions of your data files, have also been removed. You should also check for configuration files such as
/etc/my.cnfor the/etc/mysqldirectory and delete them.For information about replacing third-party packages with official MySQL packages, see the related APT guide or Yum guide.
MySQL has a dependency on the
libaiolibrary. Data directory initialization and subsequent server startup steps will fail if this library is not installed locally. If necessary, install it using the appropriate package manager. For example, on Yum-based systems:shell>
yum search libaio# search for info shell>yum install libaio# install libraryOr, on APT-based systems:
shell>
apt-cache search libaio# search for info shell>apt-get install libaio1# install library
To install a compressed tar file binary
distribution, unpack it at the installation location you choose
(typically /usr/local/mysql). This creates the
directories shown in the following table.

Debug versions of the mysqld binary are available as mysqld-debug. To compile your own debug version of MySQL from a source distribution, use the appropriate configuration options to enable debugging support. See Section 2.8, “Installing MySQL from Source”.
To install and use a MySQL binary distribution, the command sequence looks like this:
shell>groupadd mysqlshell>useradd -r -g mysql -s /bin/false mysqlshell>cd /usr/localshell>tar zxvfshell>/path/to/mysql-VERSION-OS.tar.gzln -sshell>full-path-to-mysql-VERSION-OSmysqlcd mysqlshell>mkdir mysql-filesshell>chown mysql:mysql mysql-filesshell>chmod 750 mysql-filesshell>bin/mysqld --initialize --user=mysqlshell>bin/mysql_ssl_rsa_setupshell>bin/mysqld_safe --user=mysql &# Next command is optional shell>cp support-files/mysql.server /etc/init.d/mysql.server
This procedure assumes that you have root
(administrator) access to your system. Alternatively, you can
prefix each command using the sudo (Linux) or
pfexec (Solaris) command.
The mysql-files directory provides a convenient
location to use as the value for the
secure_file_priv system variable, which limits
import and export operations to a specific directory. See
Section 5.1.7, “Server System Variables”.
A more detailed version of the preceding description for installing a binary distribution follows.
Create a mysql User and Group
If your system does not already have a user and group to use for
running mysqld, you may need to create them. The
following commands add the mysql group and the
mysql user. You might want to call the user and
group something else instead of mysql. If so,
substitute the appropriate name in the following instructions. The
syntax for useradd and
groupadd may differ slightly on different
versions of Unix/Linux, or they may have different names such as
adduser and addgroup.
shell>groupadd mysqlshell>useradd -r -g mysql -s /bin/false mysql
Because the user is required only for ownership purposes, not
login purposes, the useradd command uses the
-r and -s /bin/false options to
create a user that does not have login permissions to your server
host. Omit these options if your useradd does
not support them.
Obtain and Unpack the Distribution
Pick the directory under which you want to unpack the distribution
and change location into it. The example here unpacks the
distribution under /usr/local. The
instructions, therefore, assume that you have permission to create
files and directories in /usr/local. If that
directory is protected, you must perform the installation as
root.
shell> cd /usr/local
Obtain a distribution file using the instructions in Section 2.1.2, “How to Get MySQL”. For a given release, binary distributions for all platforms are built from the same MySQL source distribution.
Unpack the distribution, which creates the installation directory.
tar can uncompress and unpack the distribution if
it has z option support:
shell> tar zxvf /path/to/mysql-VERSION-OS.tar.gz
The tar command creates a directory named
mysql-.
VERSION-OS
To install MySQL from a compressed tar file
binary distribution, your system must have GNU
gunzip to uncompress the distribution and a
reasonable tar to unpack it. If your
tar program supports the z
option, it can both uncompress and unpack the file.
GNU tar is known to work. The standard
tar provided with some operating systems is not
able to unpack the long file names in the MySQL distribution. You
should download and install GNU tar, or if
available, use a preinstalled version of GNU tar. Usually this is
available as gnutar, gtar, or
as tar within a GNU or Free Software directory,
such as /usr/sfw/bin or
/usr/local/bin. GNU tar is
available from http://www.gnu.org/software/tar/.
If your tar does not have z
option support, use gunzip to unpack the
distribution and tar to unpack it. Replace the
preceding tar command with the following
alternative command to uncompress and extract the distribution:
shell> gunzip < /path/to/mysql-VERSION-OS.tar.gz | tar xvf -
Next, create a symbolic link to the installation directory created by tar:
shell> ln -s full-path-to-mysql-VERSION-OS mysql
The ln command makes a symbolic link to the
installation directory. This enables you to refer more easily to it
as /usr/local/mysql. To avoid having to type
the path name of client programs always when you are working with
MySQL, you can add the /usr/local/mysql/bin
directory to your PATH variable:
shell> export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/mysql/bin
Perform Postinstallation Setup
The remainder of the installation process involves setting distribution ownership and access permissions, initializing the data directory, starting the MySQL server, and setting up the configuration file. For instructions, see Section 2.9, “Postinstallation Setup and Testing”.

MySQL 8.0 Server requires the Microsoft Visual C++ 2015 Redistributable Package to run on Windows platforms. Users should make sure the package has been installed on the system before installing the server. The package is available at the Microsoft Download Center. Additionally, MySQL debug binaries require Visual Studio 2015 to be installed.
MySQL is available for Microsoft Windows, for both 32-bit and 64-bit versions. For supported Windows platform information, see http://www.mysql.com/support/supportedplatforms/database.html.
There are different methods to install MySQL on Microsoft Windows.
MySQL Installer Method
The simplest and recommended method is to download MySQL Installer (for Windows) and let it install and configure all of the MySQL products on your system. Here is how:
Download MySQL Installer from http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/installer/ and execute it.
NoteUnlike the standard MySQL Installer, the smaller "web-community" version does not bundle any MySQL applications but it will download the MySQL products you choose to install.
Choose the appropriate Setup Type for your system. Typically you will choose Developer Default to install MySQL server and other MySQL tools related to MySQL development, helpful tools like MySQL Workbench. Or, choose the Custom setup type to manually select your desired MySQL products.
NoteMultiple versions of MySQL server can exist on a single system. You can choose one or multiple versions.
Complete the installation process by following the instructions. This will install several MySQL products and start the MySQL server.
MySQL is now installed. If you configured MySQL as a service, then Windows will automatically start MySQL server every time you restart your system.
You probably also installed other helpful MySQL products like MySQL Workbench and MySQL Notifier on your system. Consider loading Chapter 30, MySQL Workbench to check your new MySQL server connection, and Section 2.3.4, “MySQL Notifier” to view the connection's status. By default, these two programs automatically start after installing MySQL.
This process also installs the MySQL Installer application on your system, and later you can use MySQL Installer to upgrade or reconfigure your MySQL products.
Additional Installation Information
It is possible to run MySQL as a standard application or as a Windows service. By using a service, you can monitor and control the operation of the server through the standard Windows service management tools. For more information, see Section 2.3.5.8, “Starting MySQL as a Windows Service”.
Generally, you should install MySQL on Windows using an account that
has administrator rights. Otherwise, you may encounter problems with
certain operations such as editing the PATH
environment variable or accessing the Service Control
Manager. When installed, MySQL does not need to be
executed using a user with Administrator privileges.
For a list of limitations on the use of MySQL on the Windows platform, see Section C.10.5, “Windows Platform Limitations”.
In addition to the MySQL Server package, you may need or want additional components to use MySQL with your application or development environment. These include, but are not limited to:
To connect to the MySQL server using ODBC, you must have a Connector/ODBC driver. For more information, including installation and configuration instructions, see MySQL Connector/ODBC Developer Guide.
NoteMySQL Installer will install and configure Connector/ODBC for you.
To use MySQL server with .NET applications, you must have the Connector/Net driver. For more information, including installation and configuration instructions, see MySQL Connector/Net Developer Guide.
NoteMySQL Installer will install and configure MySQL Connector/Net for you.
MySQL distributions for Windows can be downloaded from http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/. See Section 2.1.2, “How to Get MySQL”.
MySQL for Windows is available in several distribution formats, detailed here. Generally speaking, you should use MySQL Installer. It contains more features and MySQL products than the older MSI, is simpler to use than the compressed file, and you need no additional tools to get MySQL up and running. MySQL Installer automatically installs MySQL Server and additional MySQL products, creates an options file, starts the server, and enables you to create default user accounts. For more information on choosing a package, see Section 2.3.2, “Choosing an Installation Package”.
A MySQL Installer distribution includes MySQL Server and additional MySQL products including MySQL Workbench, MySQL Notifier, and MySQL for Excel. MySQL Installer can also be used to upgrade these products in the future.
For instructions on installing MySQL using MySQL Installer, see Section 2.3.3, “MySQL Installer for Windows”.
The standard binary distribution (packaged as a compressed file) contains all of the necessary files that you unpack into your chosen location. This package contains all of the files in the full Windows MSI Installer package, but does not include an installation program.
For instructions on installing MySQL using the compressed file, see Section 2.3.5, “Installing MySQL on Microsoft Windows Using a
noinstallZIP Archive”.The source distribution format contains all the code and support files for building the executables using the Visual Studio compiler system.
For instructions on building MySQL from source on Windows, see Section 2.8, “Installing MySQL from Source”.
MySQL on Windows Considerations
Large Table Support
If you need tables with a size larger than 4GB, install MySQL on an NTFS or newer file system. Do not forget to use
MAX_ROWSandAVG_ROW_LENGTHwhen you create tables. See Section 13.1.18, “CREATE TABLE Syntax”.MySQL and Virus Checking Software
Virus-scanning software such as Norton/Symantec Anti-Virus on directories containing MySQL data and temporary tables can cause issues, both in terms of the performance of MySQL and the virus-scanning software misidentifying the contents of the files as containing spam. This is due to the fingerprinting mechanism used by the virus-scanning software, and the way in which MySQL rapidly updates different files, which may be identified as a potential security risk.
After installing MySQL Server, it is recommended that you disable virus scanning on the main directory (
datadir) used to store your MySQL table data. There is usually a system built into the virus-scanning software to enable specific directories to be ignored.In addition, by default, MySQL creates temporary files in the standard Windows temporary directory. To prevent the temporary files also being scanned, configure a separate temporary directory for MySQL temporary files and add this directory to the virus scanning exclusion list. To do this, add a configuration option for the
tmpdirparameter to yourmy.iniconfiguration file. For more information, see Section 2.3.5.2, “Creating an Option File”.
For MySQL 8.0 on Windows, the default installation
directory is C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server
8.0 for installations performed with MySQL Installer.
If you use the ZIP archive method to install MySQL, you may prefer
to install in C:\mysql. However, the layout
of the subdirectories remains the same.
All of the files are located within this parent directory, using the structure shown in the following table.

For MySQL 8.0, there are multiple installation package formats to choose from when installing MySQL on Windows.
Program Database (PDB) files (with file name extension
pdb) provide information for debugging your
MySQL installation in the event of a problem. These files are
included in ZIP Archive distributions (but not MSI
distributions) of MySQL.
MySQL Installer: This package has a file name similar to
mysql-installer-community-8.0.13.0.msiormysql-installer-commercial-8.0.13.0.msi, and utilizes MSIs to automatically install MySQL server and other products. It will download and apply updates to itself, and for each of the installed products. It also configures the installed MySQL server (including InnoDB Cluster Sandbox test setups) and MySQL Router.MySQL Installer can install and manage (add, modify, upgrade, and remove) many other MySQL products, including:
Applications – MySQL Workbench, MySQL for Visual Studio, MySQL Notifier, MySQL for Excel, MySQL Utilities, MySQL Shell, MySQL Router
Connectors – MySQL Connector/C, MySQL Connector/C++, MySQL Connector/Net, Connector/ODBC, MySQL Connector/Python, MySQL Connector/J, MySQL Connector/Node.js
Documentation – MySQL Manual (PDF format), samples and examples
NoteMySQL Installer does not include debugging binaries/information components (including PDB files). These are available in a separate ZIP archive named
mysql-for 64-bit andVERSION-winx64-debug-test.zipmysql-for 32-bit.VERSION-win32-debug-test.zipMySQL Installer operates on all MySQL supported versions of Windows (see http://www.mysql.com/support/supportedplatforms/database.html).
NoteBecause MySQL Installer is not a native component of Microsoft Windows and depends on .NET, it will not work on minimal installation options like the "Server Core" version of Windows Server 2008.
For instructions on installing MySQL using MySQL Installer, see Section 2.3.3, “MySQL Installer for Windows”.
The
noinstallZIP Archives: These packages contain the files found in the complete installation package, with the exception of the GUI. This format does not include an automated installer, and must be manually installed and configured.NoteThe
noinstallZIP archives are split into two separate compressed files. The main package is namedmysql-for 64-bit andVERSION-winx64.zipmysql-for 32-bit. This contains the components needed to use MySQL on your system. The optional MySQL test suite, MySQL benchmark suite, and debugging binaries/information components (including PDB files) are in a separate compressed file namedVERSION-win32.zipmysql-for 64-bit andVERSION-winx64-debug-test.zipmysql-for 32-bit.VERSION-win32-debug-test.zip
MySQL Installer is recommended for most users.
Your choice of install package affects the installation process
you must follow. If you choose to use MySQL Installer, see
Section 2.3.3, “MySQL Installer for Windows”. If you choose to install a
noinstall ZIP archive, see
Section 2.3.5, “Installing MySQL on Microsoft Windows Using a
noinstall ZIP Archive”.
MySQL Installer is a standalone application designed to ease the complexity of installing and managing MySQL products that run on Microsoft Windows. It supports the following MySQL products:
MySQL Servers
MySQL Installer can install and manage multiple, separate MySQL server instances on the same host at the same time. For example, MySQL Installer can install, configure, and upgrade a separate instance of MySQL 5.6, MySQL 5.7, and MySQL 8.0 on the same host. MySQL Installer does not permit server upgrades between major and minor version numbers, but does permit upgrades within a release series (such as 5.7.18 to 5.7.19).
A host cannot have both community and commercial editions of MySQL server installed.
MySQL Applications
MySQL Workbench, MySQL Shell, MySQL Router, MySQL for Visual Studio, MySQL for Excel, MySQL Notifier, and MySQL Utilities.
MySQL Connectors
MySQL Connector/Net, MySQL Connector/Python, MySQL Connector/Node.js MySQL Connector/ODBC, MySQL Connector/J, MySQL Connector/C, and MySQL Connector/C++.
Documentation and Samples
MySQL Reference Manuals (by version) in PDF format and MySQL database samples (by version).
Installation Requirements
MySQL Installer requires Microsoft .NET Framework 4.5.2 or later. If this version is not installed on the host computer, you can download it by visiting the Microsoft web site.
MySQL Installer Community Edition
Download this edition from http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/installer/ to install the community version of all MySQL products for Windows. Select one of the following MySQL Installer package options:
Web: Contains MySQL Installer and configuration files only. The web package downloads only the MySQL products you select to install, but it requires an internet connection for each download. The size of this file is approximately 2 MB; the name of the file has the form
mysql-installer-community-whereweb-VERSION.N.msiVERSIONis the MySQL server version number such as 8.0 andNis the package number, which begins at 0.Full: Bundles all of the MySQL products for Windows (including the MySQL server). The file size is over 300 MB, and its name has the form
mysql-installer-community-whereVERSION.N.msiVERSIONis the MySQL Server version number such as 8.0 andNis the package number, which begins at 0.
MySQL Installer Commercial Edition
Download this edition from https://edelivery.oracle.com/ to install the commercial edition of all MySQL products for Windows. The Commercial Edition includes all of the products in the Community Edition and also includes the following products:
Workbench SE/EE
MySQL Enterprise Backup
MySQL Enterprise Firewall
This edition integrates with your My Oracle Support (MOS) account. For knowledge-base content and patches, see My Oracle Support.
When you download MySQL Installer for the first time, a setup wizard guides you through the initial installation of MySQL products. As the following figure shows, the initial setup is a one-time activity in the overall process. MySQL Installer detects existing MySQL products installed on the host during its initial setup and adds them to the list of products to be managed.
MySQL Installer extracts configuration files (described later) to the hard drive of the host during the initial setup. Although MySQL Installer is a 32-bit application, it can install both 32-bit and 64-bit binaries.
The initial setup adds a link to the Start menu under the group. Click , , , to open MySQL Installer.
MySQL Installer requires you to accept the license agreement before it will install new MySQL packages. After you accept the terms of the agreement, you can add, update, reconfigure, and remove all of the products and features provided by the MySQL Installer edition you downloaded.
For the commercial edition, entering your My Oracle Support (MOS) credentials is optional when installing bundled MySQL products, but your credentials are required when choosing unbundled MySQL products that MySQL Installer must download. An unbundled product is any MSI file that you download using MySQL Installer after the initial setup. Your credentials must match the user name and password that you have registered with Oracle for access to the support site.
During the initial setup, you are prompted to select the MySQL products to be installed on the host. One alternative is to use a predetermined setup type that matches your setup requirements. By default, both GA and pre-release products are included in the download and installation with the Developer Default, Client only, and Full setup types. Select the Only install GA products option to restrict the product set to include GA products only when using these setup types.
Choosing one of the following setup types determines the initial installation only and does not limit your ability to install or update MySQL products for Windows later:
Developer Default: Install the following products that compliment application development with MySQL:
MySQL Server (Installs the version that you selected when you downloaded MySQL Installer.)
MySQL Connectors (.NET / Python / ODBC / Java / C / C++)
MySQL Documentation
MySQL Samples and Examples
Server only: Only install the MySQL server. This setup type installs the general availability (GA) or development release server that you selected when you downloaded MySQL Installer. It uses the default installation and data paths.
Client only: Only install the most recent MySQL applications and MySQL connectors. This setup type is similar to the
Developer Defaulttype, except that it does not include MySQL server or the client programs typically bundled with the server, such as mysql or mysqladmin.Full: Install all available MySQL products.
Custom The custom setup type enables you to filter and select individual MySQL products from the MySQL Installer catalog.
Use the
Customsetup type to install:A product or product version that is not available from the usual download locations. The catalog contains all product releases, including the other releases between pre-release (or development) and GA.
An instance of MySQL server using an alternative installation path, data path, or both. For instructions on how to adjust the paths, see Section 2.3.3.2.3, “Setting Alternative Server Paths with MySQL Installer”.
Two or more MySQL server versions on the same host at the same time (for example, 5.6, 5.7, and 8.0).
A specific combination of products and features not offered as a predetermine setup type. For example, you can install a single product, such as MySQL Workbench, instead of installing all client applications for Windows.
When the default installation or data folder (required by MySQL server) for a product to be installed already exists on the host, the wizard displays the Path Conflict step to identify each conflict and enable you to take action to avoid having files in the existing folder overwritten by the new installation. You see this step in the initial setup only when MySQL Installer detects a conflict.
To resolve the path conflict, do one of the following:
Select a product from the list to display the conflict options. A warning symbol indicates which path is in conflict. Use the browse button to choose a new path and then click .
Click to choose a different setup type or product version, if applicable. The
Customsetup type enables you to select individual product versions.Click to ignore the conflict and overwrite files in the existing folder.
Delete the existing product. Click to stop the initial setup and close MySQL Installer. Open MySQL Installer again from the Start menu and delete the installed product from the host using the Delete operation from the dashboard.
MySQL Installer uses entries in the package-rules.xml
file to determine whether the prerequisite software for each
product is installed on the host. When the requirements check
fails, MySQL Installer displays the Check Requirements
step to help you update the host. The following figure
identifies and describes the key areas of this step.
Description of Check Requirements Elements
Shows the current step in the initial setup. Steps in this list may change slightly depending on the products already installed on the host, the availability of prerequisite software, and the products to be installed on the host.
Lists all pending installation requirements by product and indicates the status as follows:
A blank space in the Status column means that MySQL Installer can attempt to download and install the required software for you.
The word Manual in the Status column means that you must satisfy the requirement manually. Select each product in the list to see its requirement details.
Describes the requirement in detail to assist you with each manual resolution. When possible, a download URL is provided. After you download and install the required software, click to verify that the requirement has been met.
Provides the following set operations to proceed:
– Return to the previous step. This action enables you to select a different the setup type.
– Have MySQL Installer attempt to download and install the required software for all items without a manual status. Manual requirements are resolved by you and verified by clicking .
– Do not execute the request to apply the requirements automatically and proceed to the installation without including the products that fail the check requirements step.
– Stop the installation of MySQL products. Because MySQL Installer is already installed, the initial setup begins again when you open MySQL Installer from the Start menu and click from the dashboard. For a description of the available management operations, see Product Catalog.
All MySQL Installer files are located within the C:\Program Files
(x86) and C:\ProgramData
folders. The following table describes the files and folders
that define MySQL Installer as a standalone application.
Installed MySQL products are neither altered nor removed when you update or uninstall MySQL Installer.

MySQL Installer provides a wizard-like tool to install and configure new MySQL products for Windows. Unlike the initial setup, which runs only once, MySQL Installer invokes the wizard each time you download or install a new product. For first-time installations, the steps of the initial setup proceed directly into the steps of the installation.
Full permissions are granted to the user executing MySQL Installer to all
generated files, such as my.ini. This does
not apply to files and directories for specific products, such
as the MySQL server data directory in
%ProgramData% that is owned by
SYSTEM.
Products installed and configured on a host follow a general pattern that might require your input during the various steps. MySQL Installer loads all selected products together using the following workflow:
Product download. If you installed the full (not web) MySQL Installer package, all MSI files were loaded to the
Product Cachefolder during the initial setup and are not downloaded again. Otherwise, the status of each product changes fromDownloadingtoDownloaded.Product installation. The status of each product in the list changes from
Ready to InstalltoInstallingtoComplete. During the process, click Show Details to view the installation actions.If you cancel the installation at this point, the products are installed, but the server (if installed) is not yet configured. To restart the server configuration, open MySQL Installer from the Start menu and click the Reconfigure link next to the appropriate server in the dashboard.
Product configuration. This step applies to MySQL server and samples in most cases. The status for each item in the list should indicate,
Ready to Configure. Click to begin the step-by-step configuration of all items in the list.The configuration options presented during this step depend on which version of the database you selected to install. After the installation completes, you can reconfigure MySQL server from the MySQL Installer dashboard.
Installation compete. This step finalizes the installation and enables you to start some applications when the installation finishes.
You have two options to implement a high-availability solution when you install MySQL 5.7.17 or higher (64-bit) using MySQL Installer:
Standalone MySQL Server / Classic MySQL Replication (default)
Select this option to begin the initial configuration of a standalone MySQL server. You can configure multiple servers with classic MySQL Replication manually or use MySQL Shell 1.0.9 or higher to configure a production InnoDB cluster.
NoteExisting instance ports (3310 to 3390) set for a sandbox InnoDB cluster that was created manually using MySQL Shell, will be deleted by MySQL Installer if you later run the sandbox InnoDB cluster test setup.
For a description of the server configuration options that apply to a standalone MySQL server on Windows, see Section 2.3.3.2.2, “Server Configuration with MySQL Installer”.
Sandbox InnoDB Cluster Test Setup (for testing only)
Select this option to create and configure sandbox InnoDB cluster instances locally for testing. You can configure a sandbox InnoDB cluster to have three, five, seven, or nine MySQL server instances. Use the Reconfigure quick action in the MySQL Installer toolbar to adjust the number of instances in the InnoDB cluster after the configuration has finished.
As the following figure shows, this step requires that you enter a password for the MySQL root account. The password strength is evaluated when you retype it.
The sandbox InnoDB cluster, named
sandboxCluster by default, is available on
selected ports. After the configuration executes, click the
Summary tab to view the specific ports that
apply to your cluster. Sandbox InnoDB cluster configuration
entries are stored in the
installer_config.xml file.
You can use MySQL Installer to install MySQL Shell 1.0.9 or later, if it is not installed. MySQL Shell enables you to manage the sandbox instances. To connect with the MySQL Shell on port 3310, execute the following command:
shell> mysqlsh root@localhost:3310
MySQL Installer also provides a wizard for configuring MySQL Router to connect to the test InnoDB cluster that was created in this step. For configuration details, see MySQL Router Configuration. To learn more about MySQL Router operations, see Routing for MySQL InnoDB cluster.
MySQL Installer handles the initial configuration of the MySQL server. For example:
It creates the configuration file (
my.ini) that is used to configure the MySQL server. The values written to this file are influenced by choices you make during the installation process. Some definitions are host dependent. For example, query_cache is enabled if the host has fewer than three cores.NoteQuery cache was deprecated in MySQL 5.7 and removed in MySQL 8.0 (and later).
By default, a Windows service for the MySQL server is added.
Provides default installation and data paths for MySQL server. For instructions on how to change the default paths, see Section 2.3.3.2.3, “Setting Alternative Server Paths with MySQL Installer”.
It can optionally create MySQL server user accounts with configurable permissions based on general roles, such as DB Administrator, DB Designer, and Backup Admin. It optionally creates a Windows user named
MysqlSyswith limited privileges, which would then run the MySQL Server.User accounts may also be added and configured in MySQL Workbench.
Checking Show Advanced Options allows additional Logging Options to be set. This includes defining custom file paths for the error log, general log, slow query log (including the configuration of seconds it requires to execute a query), and the binary log.
During the configuration process, click to proceed to the next step or to return to the previous step. Click at the final step to apply the server configuration.
The sections that follow describe the server configuration options that apply to MySQL server on Windows. The server version you installed will determine which steps and options you can configure. Configuring MySQL server may include some or all of the following steps:
Server Configuration Type
Choose the MySQL server configuration type that describes your setup. This setting defines the amount of system resources (memory) that will be assigned to your MySQL server instance.
Development: A machine that will host many other applications, and typically this is your personal workstation. This option configures MySQL to use the least amount of memory.
Server: Several other applications will be running on this machine, such as a web server. This option configures MySQL to use a medium amount of memory.
Dedicated: A machine that is dedicated to running the MySQL server. Because no other major applications will run on this server, such as a web server, this option configures MySQL to use the majority of available memory.
Connectivity
Connectivity options control how the connection to MySQL is made. Options include:
TCP/IP: You may enable TCP/IP Networking here as otherwise only local host connections are allowed. Also define the Port Number and whether to open the firewall port for network access. If the port number is in use already, you will see the information icon (
) next to the default value and
is disabled until you
provide a new port number.
Named Pipe: Enable and define the pipe name, similar to using the
--enable-named-pipeoption.Shared Memory: Enable and then define the memory name, similar to using the
--shared-memoryoption.
Advanced Configuration
Check Show Advanced Options to set additional logging options in a later step. This includes defining custom file paths for the error log, general log, slow query log (including the configuration of seconds it requires to execute a query), and the binary log.
MySQL Enterprise Firewall (Commercial Edition only)
The Enable Enterprise Firewall check box is selected by default. For post-installation instructions, see Section 6.5.6, “MySQL Enterprise Firewall”.
The Authentication Method step is visible only during the installation or upgrade of MySQL 8.0.4 or higher. It introduces a choice between two server-side authentication options. The MySQL user accounts that you create in the next step will use the authentication method that you select in this step.
MySQL 8.0 connectors and community drivers that use
libmysqlclient 8.0 now support the
mysql_native_password default
authentication plugin. However, if you are unable to update
your clients and applications to support this new
authentication method, you can configure the MySQL server to
use mysql_native_password for legacy
authentication. For more information about the implications of
this change, see
caching_sha2_password as the Preferred Authentication Plugin.
If you are installing or upgrading to MySQL 8.0.4 or higher, select one of the following authentication methods:
Use Strong Password Encryption for Authentication (RECOMMENDED)
MySQL 8.0 supports a new authentication based on improved, stronger SHA256-based password methods. It is recommended that all new MySQL server installations use this method going forward.
ImportantThe
caching_sha2_passwordauthentication plugin on the server requires new versions of connectors and clients, which add support for the new MySQL 8.0 default authentication.Use Legacy Authentication Method (Retain MySQL 5.x Compatibility)
Using the old MySQL 5.x legacy authentication method should be considered only in the following cases:
Applications cannot be updated to use MySQL 8.0 connectors and drivers.
Recompilation of an existing application is not feasible.
An updated, language-specific connector or driver is not available yet.
Root Account Password
Assigning a root password is required and you will be asked for it when performing other MySQL Installer operations. Password strength is evaluated when you repeat the password in the box provided. For descriptive information regarding password requirements or status, move your mouse pointer over the information icon (
) when it appears.
MySQL User Accounts
Optionally, you can create additional MySQL user accounts with predefined user roles. Each predefined role, such as DB Admin, are configured with their own set of privileges. For example, the DB Admin role has more privileges than the DB Designer role. Click the Role drop-down list for a description of each role.
NoteIf the MySQL server is installed, then you must also enter the current root password.
On the Windows platform, MySQL server can run as a named service managed by the operating system and be configured to start up automatically when Windows starts. Alternatively, you can configure MySQL server to run as an executable program that requires manual configuration.
Configure MySQL server as a Windows service (Selected by default.)
When the default configuration option is selected, you can also select the following:
Start the MySQL Server at System Startup
When selected (default), the service startup type is set to Automatic; otherwise, the startup type is set to Manual.
Run Windows Service as
When Standard System Account is selected (default), the service logs on as Network Service.
The Custom User option must have privileges to log on to Microsoft Windows as a service. The button will be disabled until this user is configured with the required privileges.
A custom user is configured in Windows by searching for "local security policy" in the Start menu. In the Local Security Policy window, select Local Policies, User Rights Assignment, and then Log On As A Service to open the property dialog. Click to add the custom user and then click in each dialog to save the changes.
Deselect the Windows Service option
The Plugins and Extensions step is visible during a new installation of MySQL 5.7.12 (or higher) only. If you are upgrading from a previous MySQL version, then you need to open MySQL Installer again and select the Reconfigure MySQL server option.
Enable X Protocol / MySQL as a Document Store (Selected by default.)
When the X Protocol option is selected, MySQL Installer loads and starts the X Plugin. Without the X Plugin running, X Protocol clients cannot connect to the server.
Port Number:
33060Requires an unused port. The default port number is 33060.
Open Firewall port for network access
Open by default when the X Protocol is selected.
For more information about using MySQL as a document store and the X Plugin, see Section 20.1, “Key Concepts” and Section 20.6, “X Plugin”.
This step is available if the Show Advanced Configuration check box was selected during the Type and Networking step. To enable this step now, click to return to the Type and Networking step and select the check box.
Advanced configuration options are related to the following MySQL log files:
All configuration settings are applied to the MySQL server when you click . Use the Configuration Steps tab to follow the progress of each action; the icon for each toggles from white to green (with a check mark) on success. Otherwise, the process stops and displays an error message if an individual action times out. Click the Log tab to view the log.
When the installation is done and you click
, MySQL Installer and the installed MySQL
products are added to the Microsoft Windows Start menu under
the MySQL group. Opening MySQL Installer loads the
dashboard
where installed MySQL products are listed and other MySQL Installer
operations are available.
You can change the default installation path, the data path, or both when you install MySQL server. After you have installed the server, the paths cannot be altered without removing and reinstalling the server instance.
To change paths for MySQL server
Identify the MySQL server to change and display the Advanced Options link.
Navigate to the Select Products and Features step by doing one of the following:
If this is an initial setup, select the
Customsetup type and click .If MySQL Installer is installed already, launch it from the Start menu and then click from the dashboard.
Click to filter the list of products, locate the server instance to be installed in the Available Products list.
With the server instance selected, use the arrow to move the selected server to the Products/Features To Be Installed list.
Click the server to select it. When you select the server, the Advanced Options link appears. For details, see the figure that follows.
Click Advanced Options to open a dialog window with the path-setting options. After setting the path, click to continue with the configuration steps.
MySQL Installer provides you with a suite of tools for developing and managing business-critical applications on Windows. The suite consist of applications, connectors, documentation, and samples.
During the initial
setup, choose any predetermined setup type, except
Server only, to install the latest GA version
of the tools. Use the Custom setup type to
install an individual tool or specific version. If MySQL Installer is
installed on the host already, use the Add
operation to select and install tools from the MySQL Installer dashboard.
MySQL Installer provides a configuration wizard that can bootstrap an installed instance of MySQL Router 2.1.3 or later to route traffic between MySQL applications and an InnoDB cluster. When configured, MySQL Router runs as a local Windows service. For detailed information about using MySQL Router with an InnoDB cluster, see Routing for MySQL InnoDB cluster.
To configure MySQL Router, do the following:
Set up InnoDB cluster. For instructions on how to configure a sandbox InnoDB cluster on the local host using MySQL Installer, see Section 2.3.3.2.1, “Group Replication”. InnoDB cluster requires MySQL Server 5.7.17 or higher.
For general InnoDB cluster information, see Chapter 21, InnoDB Cluster.
Using MySQL Installer, download and install the MySQL Router application. After the installation finishes, the configuration wizard prompts you for information. Select the Configure MySQL Router for InnoDB cluster check box to begin the configuration and provide the following configuration values:
Hostname: localhost by default.
Port: The port number of the primary server in the InnoDB cluster. The default is 3310.
Management User: An administrative user with root-level privileges.
Password: The password for the management user.
Classic MySQL protocol connections to InnoDB cluster
Read/Write: Set the first base port number to one that is unused (between 80 and 65532) and the wizard will select the remaining ports for you.
The figure that follows shows an example of the MySQL Router configuration screen, with the first base port number specified as 6446 and the remaining ports set by the wizard as 6447, 6448, and 6449.
Click and then to apply the configuration. Click to close MySQL Installer or return to the MySQL Installer dashboard.
This section describes the MySQL Installer product catalog and the dashboard.
The product catalog stores the complete list of released MySQL products for Microsoft Windows that are available to download from MySQL Downloads. By default, and when an Internet connection is present, MySQL Installer updates the catalog daily. You can also update the catalog manually from the dashboard (described later).
An up-to-date catalog performs the following actions:
Populates the Available Products pane of the Select Products and Features step. This step appears when you select:
The
Customsetup type during the initial setup.The Add operation from the dashboard.
Identifies when product updates are available for the installed products listed in the dashboard.
The catalog includes all development releases (Pre-Release), general releases (Current GA), and minor releases (Other Releases). Products in the catalog will vary somewhat, depending on the MySQL Installer edition that you download.
The MySQL Installer dashboard is the default screen that you see when you start MySQL Installer after the initial setup finishes. If you closed MySQL Installer before the setup was finished, MySQL Installer resumes the initial setup before it displays the dashboard.
Description of MySQL Installer Dashboard Elements
The MySQL Installer-About icon (
) shows the current version of MySQL Installer and
general information about MySQL. The version number is
located above the button.
Always include this version number when reporting a problem with MySQL Installer.
The MySQL Installer Options icon (
) enables you to schedule daily
automatic catalog updates. By default, catalog updates are
scheduled at the hour when MySQL Installer was first installed. When
new products or product versions are available, MySQL Installer adds
them to the catalog and then displays an arrow icon
(
) next to the version number of
installed products listed in the dashboard.
Use this option to enable or disable automatic catalog updates and to reset the time of day when the MySQL Installer updates the catalog automatically. For specific settings, see the task named
ManifestUpdatein the Windows Task Scheduler.MySQL Installer dashboard operations provide a variety of actions that apply to installed products or products listed in the catalog. To initiate the following operations, first click the operation link and then select the product or products to manage:
Add: This operation opens the Select Products and Features screen. From there, you can filter the product in the product catalog, select one or more products to download (as needed), and begin the installation. For hints about using the filter, see Locating Products to Install.
Modify: Use this operation to add or remove the features associated with installed products. Features that you can modify vary in complexity by product. When the Program Shortcut check box is selected, the product appears in the Start menu under the
MySQLgroup.Upgrade: This operation loads the Select Products to Upgrade screen and populates it with all the upgrade candidates. An installed product can have more than one upgrade version and requires a current product catalog.
Important server upgrade conditions:
MySQL Installer does not permit server upgrades between major release versions or minor release versions, but does permit upgrades within a release series, such as an upgrade from 5.7.18 to 5.7.19.
Upgrades between milestone releases (or from a milestone release to a GA release) are not supported. Significant development changes take place in milestone releases and you may encounter compatibility issues or problems starting the server.
To choose a new product version:
Click Upgrade. Confirm that the check box next to product name in the Upgradeable Products pane has a check mark. Deselect the products that you do not intend to upgrade at this time.
NoteFor server milestone releases in the same release series, MySQL Installer deselects the server upgrade and displays a warning to indicate that the upgrade is not supported, identifies the risks of continuing, and provides a summary of the steps to perform a logical upgrade manually. You can reselect server upgrade at your own risk. For instructions on how to perform a logical upgrade with a milestone release, see Logical Upgrade.
Click a product in the list to highlight it. This action populates the Upgradeable Versions pane with the details of each available version for the selected product: version number, published date, and a
Changeslink to open the release notes for that version.
MySQL Installer upgrades all of the selected products in one action. Click to view the actions performed by MySQL Installer.
Remove This operation opens the Remove Products screen and populates it with the MySQL products installed on the host. Select the MySQL products you want to remove (uninstall) and then click to begin the removal process.
To select products to remove, do one of the following:
Select the check box for one or more products.
Select the Product check box to select all products.
The Reconfigure link in the Quick Action column next to each installed server loads the current configuration values for the server and then cycles through all configuration steps enabling you to change the options and values. On completion, MySQL Installer stops the server, applies the configuration changes, and restarts the server for you. For a description of each configuration option, see Section 2.3.3.2.2, “Server Configuration with MySQL Installer”.
Installed
Samples and Examplesassociated with a specific MySQL server version can be also be reconfigured to apply feature-configuration changes, if any. You must provide credentials with root privileges to reconfigure these items.The Catalog link enables you to download the latest catalog of MySQL products manually and then to integrate those product changes with MySQL Installer. The catalog-download action does not perform an upgrade of the products already installed on the host. Instead, it returns to the dashboard and displays an arrow icon in the Version column for each installed product that has a newer version. Use the Upgrade operation to install the newer product version.
You can also use the Catalog link to display the current change history of each product without downloading the new catalog. Select the Do not update at this time check box to view the change history only.
MySQL products in the catalog are listed by category: MySQL Servers, Applications, MySQL Connectors, and Documentation. Only the latest GA versions appear in the Available Products pane by default. If you are looking for a pre-release or older version of a product, it may not be visible in the default list.
To change the default product list, click Add on the dashboard to open the Select Products and Features screen, and then click . Modify the product values and then click .

MySQL Notifier is a tool that enables you to monitor and adjust the status of your local and remote MySQL server instances through an indicator that resides in the Microsoft Windows taskbar. MySQL Notifier also gives quick access to MySQL Workbench through its context menu.
MySQL Notifier is installed by using MySQL Installer. It can be loaded automatically when Microsoft Windows is started.
To install, download and execute the MySQL Installer. With MySQL Notifier selected from Applications, proceed with the installation. See the MySQL Installer manual for additional details.
For notes detailing the changes in each release of MySQL Notifier, see the MySQL Notifier Release Notes.
Visit the MySQL Notifier forum for additional MySQL Notifier help and support.
Features include:
Start, stop, and restart instances of the MySQL server.
Automatically detects (and adds) new MySQL server services. These are listed under , and may also be configured.
The Tray icon changes, depending on the status. It is a right-pointing green triangle if all monitored MySQL server instances are running or a red square if at least one service is stopped. The Update MySQL Notifier tray icon based on service status option, which dictates this behavior, is enabled by default for each service.
Links to other applications like MySQL Workbench, MySQL Installer, and the MySQL Utilities. For example, choosing will load the MySQL Workbench Server Administration window for that particular instance.
If MySQL Workbench is also installed, then the and options are available for local (but not remote) MySQL instances.
Monitors both local and remote MySQL instances.
MySQL Notifier provides visual status information for the MySQL servers that are monitored on both local or remote computers. The MySQL Notifier icon in the taskbar changes color to indicate the current status: Running or Stopped.
MySQL Notifier automatically adds discovered MySQL services on the
local computer. By default, the Automatically add new

Problem: attempting to start/stop/restart a MySQL service might generate an error similar to "The Service MySQL
VERSIONfailed the most recent status change request with the message "The service mysqlVERSIONwas not found in the Windows Services".Explanation: this is a case-sensitivity issue, in that the service name is MySQL
VERSIONcompared to having mysqlVERSIONin the configuration file.Solution: either update your MySQL Notifier configuration file with the correct information, or stop MySQL Notifier and delete this configuration file. The MySQL Notifier configuration file is located at
%APPDATA%\Oracle\MySQL Notifier\settings.configwhere%APPDATA%is a variable and depends on your system. A typical location is "C:\Users\YourUsername\AppData\Running\Oracle\MySQL Notifier\settings.config" whereYourUsernameis your system's user name. In this file, and within the ServerList section, change the ServerName values from lowercase to the actual service names. For example, change mysqlVERSIONto MySQLVERSION, save, and then restart MySQL Notifier. Alternatively, stop MySQL Notifier, delete this file, then restart MySQL Notifier.Problem: when connecting to a remote computer for the purpose of monitoring a remote Windows service, the Add Service dialog does not always show all the services shown in the Windows Services console.
Explanation: this behavior is governed by the operating system and the outcome is expected when working with nondomain user accounts. For a complete description of the behavior, see the User Account Control and WMI article from Microsoft.
Solution: when the remote computer is in a compatible domain, it is recommended that domain user accounts are used to connect through WMI to a remote computer. For detailed setup instructions using WMI, see Section 2.3.4.2, “Setting Up Remote Monitoring in MySQL Notifier”.
Alternatively, when domain user accounts are not available, Microsoft provides a less secure workaround that should only be implemented with caution. For more information, see the Description of User Account Control and remote restrictions in Windows Vista KB article from Microsoft.
MySQL Notifier uses Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) to manage and monitor services on remote computers. This section explains how it works and how to set up your system to monitor remote MySQL instances.
In order to configure WMI, it is important to understand that the underlying Distributed Component Object Model (DCOM) architecture is doing the WMI work. Specifically, MySQL Notifier is using asynchronous notification queries on remote Microsoft Windows hosts as .NET events. These events send an asynchronous callback to the computer running MySQL Notifier so it knows when a service status has changed on the remote computer. Asynchronous notifications offer the best performance compared to semisynchronous notifications or synchronous notifications that use timers.
As the following figure shows, asynchronous notification requires
the remote computer to send a callback to the client computer
(thus opening a reverse connection), so the Windows Firewall and
DCOM settings must be properly configured for the communication to
function properly. The client (Computer A), which includes an
unsecured application (unsecapp.exe in this
example), makes an asynchronous call to a remote computer
(Computer B) and receives a call back with data.
Most of the common errors thrown by asynchronous WMI notifications are related to Windows Firewall blocking the communication, or to DCOM / WMI settings not being set up properly. For a list of common errors with solutions, see Common Errors.
The following steps are required to make WMI function. These steps are divided between two machines. A single host computer that runs MySQL Notifier (Computer A), and multiple remote machines that are being monitored (Computer B).

- 2.3.5.8 Starting MySQL as a Windows Service
- 2.3.5.9 Testing The MySQL Installation
Users who are installing from the noinstall
package can use the instructions in this section to manually
install MySQL. The process for installing MySQL from a ZIP Archive
package is as follows:
Extract the main archive to the desired install directory
Optional: also extract the debug-test archive if you plan to execute the MySQL benchmark and test suite
Create an option file
Choose a MySQL server type
Initialize MySQL
Start the MySQL server
Secure the default user accounts
This process is described in the sections that follow.
To install MySQL manually, do the following:
If you are upgrading from a previous version please refer to Section 2.3.8, “Upgrading MySQL on Windows”, before beginning the upgrade process.
Make sure that you are logged in as a user with administrator privileges.
Choose an installation location. Traditionally, the MySQL server is installed in
C:\mysql. If you do not install MySQL atC:\mysql, you must specify the path to the install directory during startup or in an option file. See Section 2.3.5.2, “Creating an Option File”.NoteThe MySQL Installer installs MySQL under
C:\Program Files\MySQL.Extract the install archive to the chosen installation location using your preferred file-compression tool. Some tools may extract the archive to a folder within your chosen installation location. If this occurs, you can move the contents of the subfolder into the chosen installation location.
If you need to specify startup options when you run the server, you can indicate them on the command line or place them in an option file. For options that are used every time the server starts, you may find it most convenient to use an option file to specify your MySQL configuration. This is particularly true under the following circumstances:
The installation or data directory locations are different from the default locations (
C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 8.0andC:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 8.0\data).You need to tune the server settings, such as memory, cache, or InnoDB configuration information.
When the MySQL server starts on Windows, it looks for option
files in several locations, such as the Windows directory,
C:\, and the MySQL installation directory
(for the full list of locations, see
Section 4.2.6, “Using Option Files”). The Windows directory typically
is named something like C:\WINDOWS. You can
determine its exact location from the value of the
WINDIR environment variable using the
following command:
C:\> echo %WINDIR%
MySQL looks for options in each location first in the
my.ini file, and then in the
my.cnf file. However, to avoid confusion,
it is best if you use only one file. If your PC uses a boot
loader where C: is not the boot drive, your
only option is to use the my.ini file.
Whichever option file you use, it must be a plain text file.
When using the MySQL Installer to install MySQL Server, it will create
the my.ini at the default location, and
the user executing MySQL Installer is granted full permissions to this
new my.ini file.
In other words, be sure that the MySQL Server user has
permission to read the my.ini file.
You can also make use of the example option files included with your MySQL distribution; see Section 5.1.2, “Server Configuration Defaults”.
An option file can be created and modified with any text editor,
such as Notepad. For example, if MySQL is installed in
E:\mysql and the data directory is in
E:\mydata\data, you can create an option
file containing a [mysqld] section to specify
values for the basedir and
datadir options:
[mysqld] # set basedir to your installation path basedir=E:/mysql # set datadir to the location of your data directory datadir=E:/mydata/data
Microsoft Windows path names are specified in option files using (forward) slashes rather than backslashes. If you do use backslashes, double them:
[mysqld] # set basedir to your installation path basedir=E:\\mysql # set datadir to the location of your data directory datadir=E:\\mydata\\data
The rules for use of backslash in option file values are given in Section 4.2.6, “Using Option Files”.
The ZIP archive does not include a data
directory. To initialize a MySQL installation by creating the
data directory and populating the tables in the mysql system
database, initialize MySQL using either
--initialize or
--initialize-insecure. For
additional information, see
Section 2.9.1.1, “Initializing the Data Directory Manually Using mysqld”.
If you would like to use a data directory in a different
location, you should copy the entire contents of the
data directory to the new location. For
example, if you want to use E:\mydata as
the data directory instead, you must do two things:
Move the entire
datadirectory and all of its contents from the default location (for exampleC:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 8.0\data) toE:\mydata.Use a
--datadiroption to specify the new data directory location each time you start the server.
The following table shows the available servers for Windows in MySQL 8.0.
| Binary | Description |
|---|---|
| mysqld | Optimized binary with named-pipe support |
| mysqld-debug | Like mysqld, but compiled with full debugging and automatic memory allocation checking |
All of the preceding binaries are optimized for modern Intel processors, but should work on any Intel i386-class or higher processor.
Each of the servers in a distribution support the same set of
storage engines. The SHOW ENGINES
statement displays which engines a given server supports.
All Windows MySQL 8.0 servers have support for symbolic linking of database directories.
MySQL supports TCP/IP on all Windows platforms. MySQL servers on
Windows also support named pipes, if you start the server with
the --enable-named-pipe option.
It is necessary to use this option explicitly because some users
have experienced problems with shutting down the MySQL server
when named pipes were used. The default is to use TCP/IP
regardless of platform because named pipes are slower than
TCP/IP in many Windows configurations.
If you installed MySQL using the noinstall
package, no data directory is included. To initialize the data
directory, use the instructions at
Section 2.9.1.1, “Initializing the Data Directory Manually Using mysqld”.
This section gives a general overview of starting the MySQL server. The following sections provide more specific information for starting the MySQL server from the command line or as a Windows service.
The information here applies primarily if you installed MySQL
using the noinstall version, or if you wish
to configure and test MySQL manually rather than with the GUI
tools.
The MySQL server will automatically start after using MySQL Installer, and MySQL Notifier can be used to start/stop/restart at any time.
The examples in these sections assume that MySQL is installed
under the default location of C:\Program
Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 8.0. Adjust the
path names shown in the examples if you have MySQL installed in
a different location.
Clients have two options. They can use TCP/IP, or they can use a named pipe if the server supports named-pipe connections.
MySQL for Windows also supports shared-memory connections if the
server is started with the
--shared-memory option. Clients
can connect through shared memory by using the
--protocol=MEMORY option.
For information about which server binary to run, see Section 2.3.5.3, “Selecting a MySQL Server Type”.
Testing is best done from a command prompt in a console window (or “DOS window”). In this way you can have the server display status messages in the window where they are easy to see. If something is wrong with your configuration, these messages make it easier for you to identify and fix any problems.
The database must be initialized before MySQL can be started. For additional information about the initialization process, see Section 2.9.1.1, “Initializing the Data Directory Manually Using mysqld”.
To start the server, enter this command:
C:\> "C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 8.0\bin\mysqld" --console
For a server that includes InnoDB support,
you should see the messages similar to those following as it
starts (the path names and sizes may differ):
InnoDB: The first specified datafile c:\ibdata\ibdata1 did not exist: InnoDB: a new database to be created! InnoDB: Setting file c:\ibdata\ibdata1 size to 209715200 InnoDB: Database physically writes the file full: wait... InnoDB: Log file c:\iblogs\ib_logfile0 did not exist: new to be created InnoDB: Setting log file c:\iblogs\ib_logfile0 size to 31457280 InnoDB: Log file c:\iblogs\ib_logfile1 did not exist: new to be created InnoDB: Setting log file c:\iblogs\ib_logfile1 size to 31457280 InnoDB: Log file c:\iblogs\ib_logfile2 did not exist: new to be created InnoDB: Setting log file c:\iblogs\ib_logfile2 size to 31457280 InnoDB: Doublewrite buffer not found: creating new InnoDB: Doublewrite buffer created InnoDB: creating foreign key constraint system tables InnoDB: foreign key constraint system tables created 011024 10:58:25 InnoDB: Started
When the server finishes its startup sequence, you should see something like this, which indicates that the server is ready to service client connections:
mysqld: ready for connections Version: '8.0.13' socket: '' port: 3306
The server continues to write to the console any further diagnostic output it produces. You can open a new console window in which to run client programs.
If you omit the --console option,
the server writes diagnostic output to the error log in the data
directory (C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server
8.0\data by default). The error log is
the file with the .err extension, and may
be set using the --log-error
option.
The initial root account in the MySQL grant
tables has no password. After starting the server, you should
set up a password for it using the instructions in
Section 2.9.4, “Securing the Initial MySQL Account”.
The MySQL server can be started manually from the command line. This can be done on any version of Windows.
MySQL Notifier can also be used to start/stop/restart the MySQL server.
To start the mysqld server from the command line, you should start a console window (or “DOS window”) and enter this command:
C:\> "C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 8.0\bin\mysqld"
The path to mysqld may vary depending on the install location of MySQL on your system.
You can stop the MySQL server by executing this command:
C:\> "C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 8.0\bin\mysqladmin" -u root shutdown
If the MySQL root user account has a
password, you need to invoke mysqladmin
with the -p option and supply the password
when prompted.
This command invokes the MySQL administrative utility
mysqladmin to connect to the server and tell
it to shut down. The command connects as the MySQL
root user, which is the default
administrative account in the MySQL grant system.
Users in the MySQL grant system are wholly independent from any login users under Microsoft Windows.
If mysqld doesn't start, check the error log
to see whether the server wrote any messages there to indicate
the cause of the problem. By default, the error log is located
in the C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server
8.0\data directory. It is the file with
a suffix of .err, or may be specified by
passing in the --log-error
option. Alternatively, you can try to start the server with the
--console option; in this case,
the server may display some useful information on the screen
that will help solve the problem.
The last option is to start mysqld with the
--standalone and
--debug options. In this case,
mysqld writes a log file
C:\mysqld.trace that should contain the
reason why mysqld doesn't start. See
Section 28.5.3, “The DBUG Package”.
Use mysqld --verbose --help to display all the options that mysqld supports.
You must exercise great care when editing your system
PATH by hand; accidental deletion or
modification of any portion of the existing
PATH value can leave you with a
malfunctioning or even unusable system.
To make it easier to invoke MySQL programs, you can add the path
name of the MySQL bin directory to your
Windows system PATH environment variable:
On the Windows desktop, right-click the My Computer icon, and select .
Next select the tab from the menu that appears, and click the button.
Under System Variables, select , and then click the button. The dialogue should appear.
Place your cursor at the end of the text appearing in the space marked Variable Value. (Use the End key to ensure that your cursor is positioned at the very end of the text in this space.) Then enter the complete path name of your MySQL
bindirectory (for example,C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 8.0\bin)NoteThere must be a semicolon separating this path from any values present in this field.
Dismiss this dialogue, and each dialogue in turn, by clicking until all of the dialogues that were opened have been dismissed. The new
PATHvalue should now be available to any new command shell you open, allowing you to invoke any MySQL executable program by typing its name at the DOS prompt from any directory on the system, without having to supply the path. This includes the servers, the mysql client, and all MySQL command-line utilities such as mysqladmin and mysqldump.
You should not add the MySQL bin directory
to your Windows PATH if you are running
multiple MySQL servers on the same machine.
On Windows, the recommended way to run MySQL is to install it as a Windows service, so that MySQL starts and stops automatically when Windows starts and stops. A MySQL server installed as a service can also be controlled from the command line using NET commands, or with the graphical Services utility. Generally, to install MySQL as a Windows service you should be logged in using an account that has administrator rights.
MySQL Notifier can also be used to monitor the status of the MySQL service.
The Services utility (the Windows Service Control Manager) can be found in the Windows Control Panel (under on Windows Vista, and Server 2003). To avoid conflicts, it is advisable to close the Services utility while performing server installation or removal operations from the command line.
Installing the service
Before installing MySQL as a Windows service, you should first stop the current server if it is running by using the following command:
C:\>"C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 8.0\bin\mysqladmin"-u root shutdown
If the MySQL root user account has a
password, you need to invoke mysqladmin
with the -p option and supply the password
when prompted.
This command invokes the MySQL administrative utility
mysqladmin to connect to the server and tell
it to shut down. The command connects as the MySQL
root user, which is the default
administrative account in the MySQL grant system.
Users in the MySQL grant system are wholly independent from any login users under Windows.
Install the server as a service using this command:
C:\> "C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 8.0\bin\mysqld" --install
The service-installation command does not start the server. Instructions for that are given later in this section.
To make it easier to invoke MySQL programs, you can add the path
name of the MySQL bin directory to your
Windows system PATH environment variable:
On the Windows desktop, right-click the My Computer icon, and select .
Next select the tab from the menu that appears, and click the button.
Under System Variables, select , and then click the button. The dialogue should appear.
Place your cursor at the end of the text appearing in the space marked Variable Value. (Use the End key to ensure that your cursor is positioned at the very end of the text in this space.) Then enter the complete path name of your MySQL
bindirectory (for example,C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 8.0\bin), and there should be a semicolon separating this path from any values present in this field. Dismiss this dialogue, and each dialogue in turn, by clicking until all of the dialogues that were opened have been dismissed. You should now be able to invoke any MySQL executable program by typing its name at the DOS prompt from any directory on the system, without having to supply the path. This includes the servers, the mysql client, and all MySQL command-line utilities such as mysqladmin and mysqldump.You should not add the MySQL
bindirectory to your WindowsPATHif you are running multiple MySQL servers on the same machine.
You must exercise great care when editing your system
PATH by hand; accidental deletion or
modification of any portion of the existing
PATH value can leave you with a
malfunctioning or even unusable system.
The following additional arguments can be used when installing the service:
You can specify a service name immediately following the
--installoption. The default service name isMySQL.If a service name is given, it can be followed by a single option. By convention, this should be
--defaults-file=to specify the name of an option file from which the server should read options when it starts.file_nameThe use of a single option other than
--defaults-fileis possible but discouraged.--defaults-fileis more flexible because it enables you to specify multiple startup options for the server by placing them in the named option file.You can also specify a
--local-serviceoption following the service name. This causes the server to run using theLocalServiceWindows account that has limited system privileges. If both--defaults-fileand--local-serviceare given following the service name, they can be in any order.
For a MySQL server that is installed as a Windows service, the following rules determine the service name and option files that the server uses:
If the service-installation command specifies no service name or the default service name (
MySQL) following the--installoption, the server uses the service name ofMySQLand reads options from the[mysqld]group in the standard option files.If the service-installation command specifies a service name other than
MySQLfollowing the--installoption, the server uses that service name. It reads options from the[mysqld]group and the group that has the same name as the service in the standard option files. This enables you to use the[mysqld]group for options that should be used by all MySQL services, and an option group with the service name for use by the server installed with that service name.If the service-installation command specifies a
--defaults-fileoption after the service name, the server reads options the same way as described in the previous item, except that it reads options only from the named file and ignores the standard option files.
As a more complex example, consider the following command:
C:\>"C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 8.0\bin\mysqld"--install MySQL --defaults-file=C:\my-opts.cnf
Here, the default service name (MySQL) is
given after the --install option. If no
--defaults-file option had been
given, this command would have the effect of causing the server
to read the [mysqld] group from the standard
option files. However, because the
--defaults-file option is
present, the server reads options from the
[mysqld] option group, and only from the
named file.
On Windows, if the server is started with the
--defaults-file and
--install options,
--install must be first.
Otherwise, mysqld.exe will attempt to start
the MySQL server.
You can also specify options as Start parameters in the Windows Services utility before you start the MySQL service.
Finally, before trying to start the MySQL service, make sure the
user variables %TEMP% and
%TMP% (and also %TMPDIR%,
if it has ever been set) for the system user who is to run the
service are pointing to a folder to which the user has write
access. The default user for running the MySQL service is
LocalSystem, and the default value for its
%TEMP% and %TMP% is
C:\Windows\Temp, a directory
LocalSystem has write access to by default.
However, if there are any changes to that default setup (for
example, changes to the user who runs the service or to the
mentioned user variables, or the
--tmpdir option has been used to
put the temporary directory somewhere else), the MySQL service
might fail to run because write access to the temporary
directory has not been granted to the proper user.
Starting the service
After a MySQL server instance has been installed as a service, Windows starts the service automatically whenever Windows starts. The service also can be started immediately from the Services utility, or by using a NET START MySQL command. The NET command is not case-sensitive.
When run as a service, mysqld has no access
to a console window, so no messages can be seen there. If
mysqld does not start, check the error log to
see whether the server wrote any messages there to indicate the
cause of the problem. The error log is located in the MySQL data
directory (for example, C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL
Server 8.0\data). It is the file with a
suffix of .err.
When a MySQL server has been installed as a service, and the
service is running, Windows stops the service automatically when
Windows shuts down. The server also can be stopped manually by
using the Services utility, the NET
STOP MySQL command, or the mysqladmin
shutdown command.
You also have the choice of installing the server as a manual
service if you do not wish for the service to be started
automatically during the boot process. To do this, use the
--install-manual option rather than the
--install option:
C:\> "C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 8.0\bin\mysqld" --install-manual
Removing the service
To remove a server that is installed as a service, first stop it
if it is running by executing NET STOP MySQL.
Then use the --remove option to
remove it:
C:\> "C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 8.0\bin\mysqld" --remove
If mysqld is not running as a service, you can start it from the command line. For instructions, see Section 2.3.5.6, “Starting MySQL from the Windows Command Line”.
If you encounter difficulties during installation, see Section 2.3.6, “Troubleshooting a Microsoft Windows MySQL Server Installation”.
For more information about stopping or removing a MySQL Windows service, see Section 5.7.2.2, “Starting Multiple MySQL Instances as Windows Services”.
You can test whether the MySQL server is working by executing any of the following commands:
C:\>"C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 8.0\bin\mysqlshow"C:\>"C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 8.0\bin\mysqlshow" -u root mysqlC:\>"C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 8.0\bin\mysqladmin" version status procC:\>"C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 8.0\bin\mysql" test
If mysqld is slow to respond to TCP/IP
connections from client programs, there is probably a problem
with your DNS. In this case, start mysqld
with the --skip-name-resolve
option and use only localhost and IP
addresses in the Host column of the MySQL
grant tables. (Be sure that an account exists that specifies an
IP address or you may not be able to connect.)
You can force a MySQL client to use a named-pipe connection
rather than TCP/IP by specifying the
--pipe or
--protocol=PIPE option, or by
specifying . (period) as the host name. Use
the --socket option to specify
the name of the pipe if you do not want to use the default pipe
name.
If you have set a password for the root
account, deleted the anonymous account, or created a new user
account, then to connect to the MySQL server you must use the
appropriate -u and -p options
with the commands shown previously. See
Section 4.2.2, “Connecting to the MySQL Server”.
For more information about mysqlshow, see Section 4.5.8, “mysqlshow — Display Database, Table, and Column Information”.
When installing and running MySQL for the first time, you may encounter certain errors that prevent the MySQL server from starting. This section helps you diagnose and correct some of these errors.
Your first resource when troubleshooting server issues is the
error log. The MySQL server
uses the error log to record information relevant to the error
that prevents the server from starting. The error log is located
in the data directory
specified in your my.ini file. The default
data directory location is C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL
Server 8.0\data, or
C:\ProgramData\Mysql on Windows 7 and Windows
Server 2008. The C:\ProgramData directory is
hidden by default. You need to change your folder options to see
the directory and contents. For more information on the error log
and understanding the content, see Section 5.4.2, “The Error Log”.
For information regarding possible errors, also consult the console messages displayed when the MySQL service is starting. Use the NET START MySQL command from the command line after installing mysqld as a service to see any error messages regarding the starting of the MySQL server as a service. See Section 2.3.5.8, “Starting MySQL as a Windows Service”.
The following examples show other common error messages you might encounter when installing MySQL and starting the server for the first time:
If the MySQL server cannot find the
mysqlprivileges database or other critical files, it displays these messages:System error 1067 has occurred. Fatal error: Can't open and lock privilege tables: Table 'mysql.user' doesn't exist
These messages often occur when the MySQL base or data directories are installed in different locations than the default locations (
C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 8.0andC:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 8.0\data, respectively).This situation can occur when MySQL is upgraded and installed to a new location, but the configuration file is not updated to reflect the new location. In addition, old and new configuration files might conflict. Be sure to delete or rename any old configuration files when upgrading MySQL.
If you have installed MySQL to a directory other than
C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 8.0, ensure that the MySQL server is aware of this through the use of a configuration (my.ini) file. Put themy.inifile in your Windows directory, typicallyC:\WINDOWS. To determine its exact location from the value of theWINDIRenvironment variable, issue the following command from the command prompt:C:\>
echo %WINDIR%You can create or modify an option file with any text editor, such as Notepad. For example, if MySQL is installed in
E:\mysqland the data directory isD:\MySQLdata, you can create the option file and set up a[mysqld]section to specify values for thebasediranddatadiroptions:[mysqld] # set basedir to your installation path basedir=E:/mysql # set datadir to the location of your data directory datadir=D:/MySQLdata
Microsoft Windows path names are specified in option files using (forward) slashes rather than backslashes. If you do use backslashes, double them:
[mysqld] # set basedir to your installation path basedir=C:\\Program Files\\MySQL\\MySQL Server 8.0 # set datadir to the location of your data directory datadir=D:\\MySQLdata
The rules for use of backslash in option file values are given in Section 4.2.6, “Using Option Files”.
If you change the
datadirvalue in your MySQL configuration file, you must move the contents of the existing MySQL data directory before restarting the MySQL server.If you reinstall or upgrade MySQL without first stopping and removing the existing MySQL service and install MySQL using the MySQL Installer, you might see this error:
Error: Cannot create Windows service for MySql. Error: 0
This occurs when the Configuration Wizard tries to install the service and finds an existing service with the same name.
One solution to this problem is to choose a service name other than
mysqlwhen using the configuration wizard. This enables the new service to be installed correctly, but leaves the outdated service in place. Although this is harmless, it is best to remove old services that are no longer in use.To permanently remove the old
mysqlservice, execute the following command as a user with administrative privileges, on the command line:C:\>
sc delete mysql[SC] DeleteService SUCCESSIf the
scutility is not available for your version of Windows, download thedelsrvutility from http://www.microsoft.com/windows2000/techinfo/reskit/tools/existing/delsrv-o.asp and use thedelsrv mysqlsyntax.
GUI tools exist that perform most of the tasks described in this section, including:
MySQL Installer: Used to install and upgrade MySQL products.
MySQL Workbench: Manages the MySQL server and edits SQL statements.
MySQL Notifier: Starts, stops, or restarts the MySQL server, and monitors its status.
MySQL for Excel: Edits MySQL data with Microsoft Excel.
If necessary, initialize the data directory and create the MySQL grant tables. Windows installation operations performed by MySQL Installer initialize the data directory automatically. For installation from a ZIP Archive package, you can initialize the data directory as described at Section 2.9.1.1, “Initializing the Data Directory Manually Using mysqld”.
Regarding passwords, if you installed MySQL using the MySQL Installer, you
may have already assigned a passwords to the initial
root account. (See
Section 2.3.3, “MySQL Installer for Windows”.) Otherwise, use the
password-assignment procedure given in
Section 2.9.4, “Securing the Initial MySQL Account”.
Before assigning passwords, you might want to try running some client programs to make sure that you can connect to the server and that it is operating properly. Make sure that the server is running (see Section 2.3.5.5, “Starting the Server for the First Time”). You can also set up a MySQL service that runs automatically when Windows starts (see Section 2.3.5.8, “Starting MySQL as a Windows Service”).
These instructions assume that your current location is the MySQL
installation directory and that it has a bin
subdirectory containing the MySQL programs used here. If that is
not true, adjust the command path names accordingly.
If you installed MySQL using MySQL Installer (see
Section 2.3.3, “MySQL Installer for Windows”), the default installation
directory is C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server
8.0:
C:\> cd "C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 8.0"
A common installation location for installation from a ZIP archive
is C:\mysql:
C:\> cd C:\mysql
Alternatively, add the bin directory to your
PATH environment variable setting. That enables
your command interpreter to find MySQL programs properly, so that
you can run a program by typing only its name, not its path name.
See Section 2.3.5.7, “Customizing the PATH for MySQL Tools”.
With the server running, issue the following commands to verify that you can retrieve information from the server. The output should be similar to that shown here.
Use mysqlshow to see what databases exist:
C:\> bin\mysqlshow
+--------------------+
| Databases |
+--------------------+
| information_schema |
| mysql |
| performance_schema |
| sys |
+--------------------+
The list of installed databases may vary, but will always include
the minimum of mysql and
information_schema.
The preceding command (and commands for other MySQL programs such
as mysql) may not work if the correct MySQL
account does not exist. For example, the program may fail with an
error, or you may not be able to view all databases. If you
installed MySQL using MySQL Installer, the root user will
have been created automatically with the password you supplied. In
this case, you should use the -u root and
-p options. (You must use those options if you
have already secured the initial MySQL accounts.) With
-p, the client program prompts for the
root password. For example:
C:\>bin\mysqlshow -u root -pEnter password:(enter root password here)+--------------------+ | Databases | +--------------------+ | information_schema | | mysql | | performance_schema | | sys | +--------------------+
If you specify a database name, mysqlshow displays a list of the tables within the database:
C:\> bin\mysqlshow mysql
Database: mysql
+---------------------------+
| Tables |
+---------------------------+
| columns_priv |
| db |
| engine_cost |

| time_zone |
| time_zone_leap_second |
| time_zone_name |

Use the mysql program to select information
from a table in the mysql database:
C:\> bin\mysql -e "SELECT User, Host, plugin FROM mysql.user" mysql
+------+-----------+-----------------------+
| User | Host | plugin |
+------+-----------+-----------------------+
| root | localhost | caching_sha2_password |
+------+-----------+-----------------------+

There are two approaches for upgrading MySQL on Windows:
Using MySQL Installer
Using the Windows ZIP archive distribution
The approach you select depends on how the existing installation was performed. Before proceeding, review Section 2.10.1, “Upgrading MySQL” for additional information on upgrading MySQL that is not specific to Windows.
Upgrades between milestone releases (or from a milestone release to a GA release) are not supported. Significant development changes take place in milestone releases and you may encounter compatibility issues or problems starting the server.
Performing an upgrade with MySQL Installer is the best approach when the current server installation was performed with it and the upgrade is within the current release series. MySQL Installer does not support upgrades between release series, such as from 5.7 to 8.0, and it does not provide an upgrade indicator to prompt you to upgrade. For instruction on upgrading between release series, see Upgrading MySQL Using the Windows ZIP Distribution.
To perform an upgrade using MySQL Installer:
Start MySQL Installer.
From the dashboard, click Catalog to download the latest changes to the catalog. The installed server can be upgraded only if the dashboard displays an arrow next to the version number of the server.
Click Upgrade. All products that have newer versions will appear in a list.
NoteFor server milestone releases in the same release series, MySQL Installer deselects the server upgrade and displays a warning to indicate that the upgrade is not supported, identifies the risks of continuing, and provides a summary of the steps to perform an upgrade manually. You can reselect server upgrade and proceed at your own risk.
Deselect all but the MySQL server product, unless you intend to upgrade other products at this time, and click .
Click to start the download. When the download finishes, click to apply the updates.
Configure the server.
To perform an upgrade using the Windows ZIP archive distribution:
Always back up your current MySQL installation before performing an upgrade. See Section 7.2, “Database Backup Methods”.
Download the latest Windows ZIP Archive distribution of MySQL from http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/.
Before upgrading MySQL, stop the server. If the server is installed as a service, stop the service with the following command from the command prompt:
C:\>
NET STOP MySQLIf you are not running the MySQL server as a service, use mysqladmin to stop it. For example, before upgrading from MySQL 5.7 to 8.0, use mysqladmin from MySQL 5.7 as follows:
C:\>
"C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.7\bin\mysqladmin" -u root shutdownNoteIf the MySQL
rootuser account has a password, invoke mysqladmin with the-poption and enter the password when prompted.Extract the ZIP archive. You may either overwrite your existing MySQL installation (usually located at
C:\mysql), or install it into a different directory, such asC:\mysql8. Overwriting the existing installation is recommended.If you were running MySQL as a Windows service and you had to remove the service earlier in this procedure, reinstall the service. (See Section 2.3.5.8, “Starting MySQL as a Windows Service”.)
Restart the server. For example, use NET START MySQL if you run MySQL as a service, or invoke mysqld directly otherwise.
As Administrator, run mysql_upgrade to check your tables, attempt to repair them if necessary, and update your grant tables if they have changed so that you can take advantage of any new capabilities. See Section 4.4.5, “mysql_upgrade — Check and Upgrade MySQL Tables”.
If you encounter errors, see Section 2.3.6, “Troubleshooting a Microsoft Windows MySQL Server Installation”.
The MySQL Docker images provided by Oracle are built specifically for Linux platforms. Other platforms are not supported, and users running the MySQL Docker images from Oracle on them are doing so at their own risk. This section discusses some known issues for the images when used on non-Linux platforms.
Known Issues for using the MySQL Server Docker images from Oracle on Windows include:
If you are bind-mounting on the container's MySQL data directory (see Persisting Data and Configuration Changes for details), you have to set the location of the server socket file with the
--socketoption to somewhere outside of the MySQL data directory; otherwise, the server will fail to start. This is because the way Docker for Windows handles file mounting does not allow a host file from being bind-mounted on the socket file.
For a list of macOS versions that the MySQL server supports, see http://www.mysql.com/support/supportedplatforms/database.html.
MySQL for macOS is available in a number of different forms:
Native Package Installer, which uses the native macOS installer (DMG) to walk you through the installation of MySQL. For more information, see Section 2.4.2, “Installing MySQL on macOS Using Native Packages”. You can use the package installer with macOS. The user you use to perform the installation must have administrator privileges.
Compressed TAR archive, which uses a file packaged using the Unix tar and gzip commands. To use this method, you will need to open a Terminal window. You do not need administrator privileges using this method, as you can install the MySQL server anywhere using this method. For more information on using this method, you can use the generic instructions for using a tarball, Section 2.2, “Installing MySQL on Unix/Linux Using Generic Binaries”.
In addition to the core installation, the Package Installer also includes Section 2.4.3, “Installing and Using the MySQL Launch Daemon” and Section 2.4.4, “Installing and Using the MySQL Preference Pane” to simplify the management of your installation.
For additional information on using MySQL on macOS, see Section 2.4.1, “General Notes on Installing MySQL on macOS”.
You should keep the following issues and notes in mind:
Other MySQL installations: The installation procedure does not recognize MySQL installations by package managers such as Homebrew. The installation and upgrade process is for MySQL packages provided by us. If other installations are present, then consider stopping them before executing this installer to avoid port conflicts.
Homebrew: For example, if you installed MySQL Server using Homebrew to its default location then the MySQL installer installs to a different location and won't upgrade the version from Homebrew. In this scenario you would end up with multiple MySQL installations that, by default, attempt to use the same ports. Stop the other MySQL Server instances before running this installer, such as executing brew services stop mysql to stop the Homebrew's MySQL service.
Launchd: A launchd daemon is installed that alters MySQL configuration options. Consider editing it if needed, see the documentation below for additional information. Also, macOS 10.10 removed startup item support in favor of launchd daemons. The optional MySQL preference pane under macOS System Preferences uses the launchd daemon.
Users: You may need (or want) to create a specific
mysqluser to own the MySQL directory and data. You can do this through the Directory Utility, and themysqluser should already exist. For use in single user mode, an entry for_mysql(note the underscore prefix) should already exist within the system/etc/passwdfile.Data: Because the MySQL package installer installs the MySQL contents into a version and platform specific directory, you can use this to upgrade and migrate your database between versions. You will need to either copy the
datadirectory from the old version to the new version, or alternatively specify an alternativedatadirvalue to set location of the data directory. By default, the MySQL directories are installed under/usr/local/.Aliases: 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/binto yourPATHenvironment variable. You can do this by modifying the appropriate startup file for your shell. For more information, see Section 4.2.1, “Invoking MySQL Programs”.Removing: 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.pkgLegacy: Prior to OS X 10.7, MySQL server was bundled with OS X Server.
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.
Before proceeding with the installation, be sure to stop all running MySQL server instances by using either the MySQL Manager Application (on macOS Server), the preference pane, or mysqladmin shutdown on the command line.
To install MySQL using the package installer:
Download the disk image (
.dmg) file (the community version is available here) that contains the MySQL package installer. Double-click the file to mount the disk image and see its contents.Double-click the MySQL installer package from the disk. It is named according to the version of MySQL you have downloaded. For example, for MySQL server 8.0.13 it might be named
mysql-8.0.13-osx-.10.13-x86_64.pkgThe initial wizard introduction screen references the MySQL server version to install. Click to begin the installation.
The MySQL community edition shows a copy of the relevant GNU General Public License. Click and then to continue.
From the Installation Type page you can either click to execute the installation wizard using all defaults, click to alter which components to install (MySQL server, MySQL Test, Preference Pane, Launchd Support -- all but MySQL Test are enabled by default).
NoteAlthough the option is visible, the installation location cannot be changed.
Click to install MySQL Server. The installation process ends here if upgrading a current MySQL Server installation, otherwise follow the wizard's additional configuration steps for your new MySQL Server installation.
After a successful new MySQL Server installation, complete the configuration steps by choosing the default encryption type for passwords, define the root password, and also enable (or disable) MySQL server at startup.
The default MySQL 8.0 password mechanism is
caching_sha2_password(Strong), and this step allows you to change it tomysql_native_password(Legacy).Choosing the legacy password mechanism alters the generated launchd file to set
--default_authentication_plugin=mysql_native_passwordunderProgramArguments. Choosing strong password encryption does not set--default_authentication_pluginbecause the default MySQL Server value is used, which iscaching_sha2_password.Define a password for the root user, and also toggle whether MySQL Server should start after the configuration step is complete.
Summary is the final step and references a successful and complete MySQL Server installation. the wizard.
MySQL server is now installed. If you chose to not start MySQL, then use either launchctl from the command line or start MySQL by clicking "Start" using the MySQL preference pane. For additional information, see Section 2.4.3, “Installing and Using the MySQL Launch Daemon”, and Section 2.4.4, “Installing and Using the MySQL Preference Pane”. Use the MySQL Preference Pane or launchd to configure MySQL to automatically start at bootup.
When installing using the package installer, the files are
installed into a directory within /usr/local
matching the name of the installation version and platform. For
example, the installer file
mysql-8.0.13-
installs MySQL into
osx10.13-x86_64.dmg/usr/local/mysql-8.0.13-osx10.13-x86_64/
with a symlink to
/usr/local/mysql. The following table shows
the layout of this MySQL installation directory.

macOS uses launch daemons to automatically start, stop, and manage processes and applications such as MySQL.
By default, the installation package (DMG) on macOS installs a
launchd file named
/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.oracle.oss.mysql.mysqld.plist
that contains a plist definition similar to:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple Computer//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">

</array>
<key>WorkingDirectory</key> <string>/usr/local/mysql</string>
</dict>
</plist>
Some users report that adding a plist DOCTYPE declaration causes the launchd operation to fail, despite it passing the lint check. We suspect it's a copy-n-paste error. The md5 checksum of a file containing the above snippet is d925f05f6d1b6ee5ce5451b596d6baed.
To enable the launchd service, you can either:
Open macOS system preferences and select the MySQL preference panel, and then execute .
The Instances page includes an option to start or stop MySQL, and recreates the
data/directory. uninstalls MySQL Server and optionally the MySQL preference panel and launchd information.Or, manually load the launchd file.
shell> cd /Library/LaunchDaemons shell> sudo launchctl load -F com.oracle.oss.mysql.mysqld.plistTo configure MySQL to automatically start at bootup, you can:
shell> sudo launchctl load -w com.oracle.oss.mysql.mysqld.plist
When upgrading MySQL server, the launchd installation process will remove the old startup items that were installed with MySQL server 5.7.7 and below.
Also, upgrading will replace your existing launchd file named
com.oracle.oss.mysql.mysqld.plist.
Additional launchd related information:
The plist entries override
my.cnfentries, because they are passed in as command line arguments. For additional information about passing in program options, see Section 4.2.3, “Specifying Program Options”.The ProgramArguments section defines the command line options that are passed into the program, which is the
mysqldbinary in this case.The default plist definition is written with less sophisticated use cases in mind. For more complicated setups, you may want to remove some of the arguments and instead rely on a MySQL configuration file, such as
my.cnf.If you edit the plist file, then uncheck the installer option when reinstalling or upgrading MySQL. Otherwise, your edited plist file will be overwritten, and all edits will be lost.
Because the default plist definition defines several
ProgramArguments, you might
remove most of these arguments and instead rely upon your
my.cnf MySQL configuration file to define
them. For example:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple Computer//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">

<string>--early-plugin-load=keyring_file=keyring_file.so</string>
</array>
<key>WorkingDirectory</key> <string>/usr/local/mysql</string>
</dict>
</plist>
In this case, the basedir,
datadir,
plugin_dir,
log_error,
pid_file,
keyring_file_data, and
--early-plugin-load options were
removed from the default plist
ProgramArguments definition, which you might
have defined in my.cnf instead.
The MySQL Installation Package includes a MySQL preference pane that enables you to start, stop, and control automated startup during boot of your MySQL installation.
This preference pane is installed by default, and is listed under your system's System Preferences window.
The MySQL preference pane is installed with the same DMG file that installs MySQL Server. Typically it is installed with MySQL Server but it can be installed by itself too.
To install the MySQL preference pane:
Go through the process of installing the MySQL server, as described in the documentation at Section 2.4.2, “Installing MySQL on macOS Using Native Packages”.
Click at the Installation Type step. The "Preference Pane" option is listed there and enabled by default; make sure it is not deselected. The other options, such as MySQL Server, can be selected or deslected.
Complete the installation process.
The MySQL preference pane only starts and stops MySQL installation installed from the MySQL package installation that have been installed in the default location.
Once the MySQL preference pane has been installed, you can control your MySQL server instance using this preference pane.
The Instances page includes an option to
start and stop MySQL, and recreates the data/
directory. uninstalls MySQL
Server and optionally the pain and launchd information.
The Instances page includes an option to
start or stop MySQL, and recreates the data/
directory. uninstalls MySQL
Server and optionally the MySQL preference panel and launchd
information.
The Configuration page shows MySQL Server options including the path to the MySQL configuration file.
The MySQL Preference Pane shows the current status of the MySQL server, showing stopped (in red) if the server is not running and running (in green) if the server has already been started. The preference pane also shows the current setting for whether the MySQL server has been set to start automatically.

Linux supports a number of different solutions for installing MySQL. We recommend that you use one of the distributions from Oracle, for which several methods for installation are available:
Table 2.7 Linux Installation Methods and Information
| Type | Setup Method | Additional Information |
|---|---|---|
| Apt | Enable the MySQL Apt repository | Documentation |
| Yum | Enable the MySQL Yum repository | Documentation |
| Zypper | Enable the MySQL SLES repository | Documentation |
| RPM | Download a specific package | Documentation |
| DEB | Download a specific package | Documentation |
| Generic | Download a generic package | Documentation |
| Source | Compile from source | Documentation |
| Docker | Use Docker Hub | Documentation |
| Oracle Unbreakable Linux Network | Use ULN channels | Documentation |
As an alternative, you can use the package manager on your system to automatically download and install MySQL with packages from the native software repositories of your Linux distribution. These native packages are often several versions behind the currently available release. You will also normally be unable to install development milestone releases (DMRs), as these are not usually made available in the native repositories. For more information on using the native package installers, see Section 2.5.7, “Installing MySQL on Linux from the Native Software Repositories”.
For many Linux installations, you will want to set up MySQL to be
started automatically when your machine starts. Many of the native
package installations perform this operation for you, but for
source, binary and RPM solutions you may need to set this up
separately. The required script, mysql.server,
can be found in the support-files directory
under the MySQL installation directory or in a MySQL source tree.
You can install it as /etc/init.d/mysql for
automatic MySQL startup and shutdown. See
Section 4.3.3, “mysql.server — MySQL Server Startup Script”.
The MySQL Yum repository for Oracle Linux, Red Hat Enterprise Linux, CentOS, and Fedora provides RPM packages for installing the MySQL server, client, MySQL Workbench, MySQL Utilities, MySQL Router, MySQL Shell, Connector/ODBC, Connector/Python and so on (not all packages are available for all the distributions; see Installing Additional MySQL Products and Components with Yum for details).
Before You Start
As a popular, open-source software, MySQL, in its original or re-packaged form, is widely installed on many systems from various sources, including different software download sites, software repositories, and so on. The following instructions assume that MySQL is not already installed on your system using a third-party-distributed RPM package; if that is not the case, follow the instructions given in Section 2.10.1.3, “Upgrading MySQL with the MySQL Yum Repository” or Replacing a Third-Party Distribution of MySQL Using the MySQL Yum Repository.
Steps for a Fresh Installation of MySQL
Follow the steps below to install the latest GA version of MySQL with the MySQL Yum repository:
-
Adding the MySQL Yum Repository
First, add the MySQL Yum repository to your system's repository list. This is a one-time operation, which can be performed by installing an RPM provided by MySQL. Follow these steps:
Go to the Download MySQL Yum Repository page (http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/repo/yum/) in the MySQL Developer Zone.
Select and download the release package for your platform.
Install the downloaded release package with the following command, replacing
platform-and-version-specific-package-namewith the name of the downloaded RPM package:shell>
sudo yum localinstallplatform-and-version-specific-package-name.rpmFor an EL6-based system, the command is in the form of:
shell>
sudo yum localinstall mysql57-community-release-el6-{version-number}.noarch.rpmFor an EL7-based system:
shell>
sudo yum localinstall mysql57-community-release-el7-{version-number}.noarch.rpmFor Fedora 26:
shell>
sudo dnf localinstall mysql57-community-release-fc26-{version-number}.noarch.rpmFor Fedora 27:
shell>
sudo dnf localinstall mysql57-community-release-fc27-{version-number}.noarch.rpmThe installation command adds the MySQL Yum repository to your system's repository list and downloads the GnuPG key to check the integrity of the software packages. See Section 2.1.3.2, “Signature Checking Using GnuPG” for details on GnuPG key checking.
You can check that the MySQL Yum repository has been successfully added by the following command (for dnf-enabled systems, replace yum in the command with dnf):
shell>
yum repolist enabled | grep "mysql.*-community.*"
NoteOnce the MySQL Yum repository is enabled on your system, any system-wide update by the yum update command (or dnf upgrade for dnf-enabled systems) will upgrade MySQL packages on your system and also replace any native third-party packages, if Yum finds replacements for them in the MySQL Yum repository; see Section 2.10.1.3, “Upgrading MySQL with the MySQL Yum Repository” and, for a discussion on some possible effects of that on your system, see Upgrading the Shared Client Libraries.

Selecting a Release Series
When using the MySQL Yum repository, the latest GA series (currently MySQL 5.7) is selected for installation by default. If this is what you want, you can skip to the next step, Installing MySQL.
Within the MySQL Yum repository, different release series of the MySQL Community Server are hosted in different subrepositories. The subrepository for the latest GA series (currently MySQL 5.7) is enabled by default, and the subrepositories for all other series (for example, the MySQL 8.0 series) are disabled by default. Use this command to see all the subrepositories in the MySQL Yum repository, and see which of them are enabled or disabled (for dnf-enabled systems, replace yum in the command with dnf):
shell>
yum repolist all | grep mysqlTo install the latest release from the latest GA series, no configuration is needed. To install the latest release from a specific series other than the latest GA series, disable the subrepository for the latest GA series and enable the subrepository for the specific series before running the installation command. If your platform supports yum-config-manager, you can do that by issuing these commands, which disable the subrepository for the 5.7 series and enable the one for the 8.0 series:
shell>
sudo yum-config-manager --disable mysql57-communityshell>sudo yum-config-manager --enable mysql80-communityFor dnf-enabled platforms:
shell>
sudo dnf config-manager --disable mysql57-communityshell>sudo dnf config-manager --enable mysql80-communityBesides using yum-config-manager or the dnf config-manager command, you can also select a release series by editing manually the
/etc/yum.repos.d/mysql-community.repofile. This is a typical entry for a release series' subrepository in the file:[mysql57-community] name=MySQL 5.7 Community Server baseurl=http://repo.mysql.com/yum/mysql-5.7-community/el/6/$basearch/ enabled=1 gpgcheck=1 gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-mysql
Find the entry for the subrepository you want to configure, and edit the
enabledoption. Specifyenabled=0to disable a subrepository, orenabled=1to enable a subrepository. For example, to install MySQL 8.0, make sure you haveenabled=0for the above subrepository entry for MySQL 5.7, and haveenabled=1for the entry for the 8.0 series:# Enable to use MySQL 8.0 [mysql80-community] name=MySQL 8.0 Community Server baseurl=http://repo.mysql.com/yum/mysql-8.0-community/el/6/$basearch/ enabled=1 gpgcheck=1 gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-mysql
You should only enable subrepository for one release series at any time. When subrepositories for more than one release series are enabled, the latest series will be used by Yum.
Verify that the correct subrepositories have been enabled and disabled by running the following command and checking its output (for dnf-enabled systems, replace yum in the command with dnf):
shell>
yum repolist enabled | grep mysql -
Installing MySQL
Install MySQL by the following command (for dnf-enabled systems, replace yum in the command with dnf):
shell>
sudo yum install mysql-community-serverThis installs the package for MySQL server (
mysql-community-server) and also packages for the components required to run the server, including packages for the client (mysql-community-client), the common error messages and character sets for client and server (mysql-community-common), and the shared client libraries (mysql-community-libs). -
Starting the MySQL Server
Start the MySQL server with the following command:
shell>
sudo service mysqld startStarting mysqld:[ OK ]You can check the status of the MySQL server with the following command:
shell>
sudo service mysqld statusmysqld (pid 3066) is running.
At the initial start up of the server, the following happens, given that the data directory of the server is empty:
The server is initialized.
SSL certificate and key files are generated in the data directory.
validate_passwordis installed and enabled.A superuser account
'root'@'localhostis created. A password for the superuser is set and stored in the error log file. To reveal it, use the following command:shell>
sudo grep 'temporary password' /var/log/mysqld.logChange the root password as soon as possible by logging in with the generated, temporary password and set a custom password for the superuser account:
shell>
mysql -uroot -pmysql>
ALTER USER 'root'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'MyNewPass4!';Notevalidate_passwordis installed by default. The default password policy implemented byvalidate_passwordrequires that passwords contain at least one upper case letter, one lower case letter, one digit, and one special character, and that the total password length is at least 8 characters.
For more information on the postinstallation procedures, see Section 2.9, “Postinstallation Setup and Testing”.
Compatibility Information for EL7-based platforms: The following RPM packages from the native software repositories of the platforms are incompatible with the package from the MySQL Yum repository that installs the MySQL server. Once you have installed MySQL using the MySQL Yum repository, you will not be able to install these packages (and vice versa).
akonadi-mysql
Installing Additional MySQL Products and Components with Yum
You can use Yum to install and manage individual components of MySQL. Some of these components are hosted in sub-repositories of the MySQL Yum repository: for example, the MySQL Connectors are to be found in the MySQL Connectors Community sub-repository, and the MySQL Workbench in MySQL Tools Community. You can use the following command to list the packages for all the MySQL components available for your platform from the MySQL Yum repository (for dnf-enabled systems, replace yum in the command with dnf):
shell> sudo yum --disablerepo=\* --enablerepo='mysql*-community*' list available
Install any packages of your choice with the following command,
replacing package-name with name of the
package (for dnf-enabled systems, replace yum
in the command with dnf):
shell> sudo yum install package-name
For example, to install MySQL Workbench on Fedora:
shell> sudo dnf install mysql-workbench-community
To install the shared client libraries (for dnf-enabled systems, replace yum in the command with dnf):
shell> sudo yum install mysql-community-libs
Updating MySQL with Yum
Besides installation, you can also perform updates for MySQL products and components using the MySQL Yum repository. See Section 2.10.1.3, “Upgrading MySQL with the MySQL Yum Repository” for details.
The MySQL APT repository provides deb
packages for installing and managing the MySQL server, client, and
other components on the following Linux platforms:
Debian 9
Ubuntu 16.04, 17.10, and 18.04
Instructions for using the MySQL APT Repository are available in A Quick Guide to Using the MySQL APT Repository.
The MySQL SLES repository provides RPM packages for installing and managing the MySQL server, client, and other components on SUSE Enterprise Linux Server.
Instructions for using the MySQL SLES repository are available in A Quick Guide to Using the MySQL SLES Repository.
The MySQL SLES repository is now in development release. We encourage you to try it and provide us with feedback. Please report any bugs or inconsistencies you observe to our Bugs Database.
The recommended way to install MySQL on RPM-based Linux distributions is by using the RPM packages provided by Oracle. There are two sources for obtaining them, for the Community Edition of MySQL:
From the MySQL software repositories:
The MySQL Yum repository (see Section 2.5.1, “Installing MySQL on Linux Using the MySQL Yum Repository” for details).
The MySQL SLES repository (see Section 2.5.3, “Installing MySQL on Linux Using the MySQL SLES Repository” for details).
From the Download MySQL Community Server page in the MySQL Developer Zone.
RPM distributions of MySQL are also provided by other vendors. Be aware that they may differ from those built by Oracle in features, capabilities, and conventions (including communication setup), and that the installation instructions in this manual do not necessarily apply to them. The vendor's instructions should be consulted instead.
RPM packages for MySQL are listed in the following tables:
Table 2.8 RPM Packages for MySQL Community Edition
| Package Name | Summary |

The full names for the RPMs have the following syntax:
packagename-version-distribution-arch.rpm
The distribution and
arch values indicate the Linux
distribution and the processor type for which the package was
built. See the table below for lists of the distribution
identifiers:
Table 2.10 MySQL Linux RPM Package Distribution Identifiers
| distribution Value | Intended Use |
|---|---|
el6, el7 |
Red Hat Enterprise Linux/Oracle Linux/CentOS 6 or 7 |
fc26, fc27,
fc28 |
Fedora 26, 27, and 28 |
sles12 |
SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 12 |
To see all files in an RPM package (for example,
mysql-community-server), use the following
command:
shell> rpm -qpl mysql-community-server-version-distribution-arch.rpm
The discussion in the rest of this section applies only to an installation process using the RPM packages directly downloaded from Oracle, instead of through a MySQL repository.
Dependency relationships exist among some of the packages. If you plan to install many of the packages, you may wish to download the RPM bundle tar file instead, which contains all the RPM packages listed above, so that you need not download them separately.
In most cases, you need to install the
mysql-community-server,
mysql-community-client,
mysql-community-libs,
mysql-community-common, and
mysql-community-libs-compat packages to get a
functional, standard MySQL installation. To perform such a
standard, basic installation, go to the folder that contains all
those packages (and, preferably, no other RPM packages with
similar names), and issue the following command:
shell> sudo yum install mysql-community-{server,client,common,libs}-*
Replace yum with zypper for SLES, and with dnf for Fedora.
While it is much preferable to use a high-level package management tool like yum to install the packages, users who prefer direct rpm commands can replace the yum install command with the rpm -Uvh command; however, using rpm -Uvh instead makes the installation process more prone to failure, due to potential dependency issues the installation process might run into.
To install only the client programs, you can skip
mysql-community-server in your list of packages
to install; issue the following command:
shell> sudo yum install mysql-community-{client,common,libs}-*
Replace yum with zypper for SLES, and with dnf for Fedora.
A standard installation of MySQL using the RPM packages result in files and resources created under the system directories, shown in the following table.
Table 2.11 MySQL Installation Layout for Linux RPM Packages from the MySQL Developer Zone
| Files or Resources | Location |
|---|---|
| Client programs and scripts | /usr/bin |
| mysqld server | /usr/sbin |
| Configuration file | /etc/my.cnf |
| Data directory | /var/lib/mysql |
| Error log file |
For RHEL, Oracle Linux, CentOS or Fedora platforms:
For SLES: |

/var/lib/mysql-files |
| System V init script |
For RHEL, Oracle Linux, CentOS or Fedora platforms:
For SLES: |
| Systemd service |
For RHEL, Oracle Linux, CentOS or Fedora platforms:
For SLES: |
| Pid file | /var/run/mysql/mysqld.pid |
| Socket | /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock |
| Keyring directory | /var/lib/mysql-keyring |
| Unix manual pages | /usr/share/man |
| Include (header) files | /usr/include/mysql |
| Libraries | /usr/lib/mysql |
| Miscellaneous support files (for example, error messages, and character set files) | /usr/share/mysql |
The installation also creates a user named
mysql and a group named
mysql on the system.
Installation of previous versions of MySQL using older packages
might have created a configuration file named
/usr/my.cnf. It is highly recommended that
you examine the contents of the file and migrate the desired
settings inside to the file /etc/my.cnf
file, then remove /usr/my.cnf.
MySQL is NOT automatically started at the end of the installation process. For Red Hat Enterprise Linux, Oracle Linux, CentOS, and Fedora systems, use the following command to start MySQL:
shell> sudo service mysqld start
For SLES systems, the command is the same, but the service name is different:
shell> sudo service mysql start
If the operating system is systemd enabled, standard
service commands such as
stop, start,
status and restart should be
used to manage the MySQL server service. The
mysqld service is enabled by default, and it
starts at system reboot. Notice that certain things might work
differently on systemd platforms: for example, changing the
location of the data directory might cause issues. See
Section 2.5.9, “Managing MySQL Server with systemd” for additional information.
During an upgrade installation using RPM packages, if the MySQL server is running when the upgrade occurs then the MySQL server is stopped, the upgrade occurs, and the MySQL server is restarted. One exception: if the edition also changes during an upgrade (such as community to commercial, or vice-versa), then MySQL server is not restarted.
At the initial start up of the server, the following happens, given that the data directory of the server is empty:
The server is initialized.
An SSL certificate and key files are generated in the data directory.
validate_passwordis installed and enabled.A superuser account
'root'@'localhost'is created. A password for the superuser is set and stored in the error log file. To reveal it, use the following command for RHEL, Oracle Linux, CentOS, and Fedora systems:shell>
sudo grep 'temporary password' /var/log/mysqld.logUse the following command for SLES systems:
shell>
sudo grep 'temporary password' /var/log/mysql/mysqld.logThe next step is to log in with the generated, temporary password and set a custom password for the superuser account:
shell> mysql -uroot -p
mysql> ALTER USER 'root'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'MyNewPass4!';
validate_password
is installed by default. The default password policy implemented
by validate_password requires that passwords
contain at least one upper case letter, one lower case letter,
one digit, and one special character, and that the total
password length is at least 8 characters.
If something goes wrong during installation, you might find debug
information in the error log file
/var/log/mysqld.log.
For some Linux distributions, it might be necessary to increase the limit on number of file descriptors available to mysqld. See Section B.5.2.17, “File Not Found and Similar Errors”
Installing Client Libraries from Multiple MySQL Versions.
It is possible to install multiple client library versions, such
as for the case that you want to maintain compatibility with
older applications linked against previous libraries. To install
an older client library, use the --oldpackage
option with rpm. For example, to install
mysql-community-libs-5.5 on an EL6 system
that has libmysqlclient.21 from MySQL 8.0,
use a command like this:
shell> rpm --oldpackage -ivh mysql-community-libs-5.5.50-2.el6.x86_64.rpm
Debug Package.
A special variant of MySQL Server compiled with the
debug package has been
included in the server RPM packages. It performs debugging and
memory allocation checks and produces a trace file when the
server is running. To use that debug version, start MySQL with
/usr/sbin/mysqld-debug, instead of starting
it as a service or with /usr/sbin/mysqld.
See Section 28.5.3, “The DBUG Package” for the debug options you can
use.
The default plugin directory for debug builds changed from
/usr/lib64/mysql/plugin to
/usr/lib64/mysql/plugin/debug in 8.0.4.
Previously, manually changing plugin_dir was
required.
Rebuilding RPMs from source SRPMs. Source code SRPM packages for MySQL are available for download. They can be used as-is to rebuild the MySQL RPMs with the standard rpmbuild tool chain.
Oracle provides Debian packages for installing MySQL on Debian or Debian-like Linux systems. The packages are available through two different channels:
The MySQL APT Repository. This is the preferred method for installing MySQL on Debian-like systems, as it provides a simple and convenient way to install and update MySQL products. For details, see Section 2.5.2, “Installing MySQL on Linux Using the MySQL APT Repository”.
The MySQL Developer Zone's Download Area. For details, see Section 2.1.2, “How to Get MySQL”. The following are some information on the Debian packages available there and the instructions for installing them:
Various Debian packages are provided in the MySQL Developer Zone for installing different components of MySQL on different Debian or Ubuntu platforms (currently, Debian 9, and Ubuntu 16, 17, and 18 are supported). The preferred method is to use the tarball bundle, which contains the packages needed for a basic setup of MySQL. The tarball bundles have names in the format of
mysql-server_.MVER-DVER_CPU.deb-bundle.tarMVERis the MySQL version andDVERis the Linux distribution version. TheCPUvalue indicates the processor type or family for which the package is built, as shown in the following table:Table 2.12 MySQL Debian and Ubuntu Installation Packages CPU Identifiers
CPUValueIntended Processor Type or Family i386Pentium processor or better, 32 bit amd6464-bit x86 processor After downloading the tarball, unpack it with the following command:
shell>
tar -xvf mysql-server_MVER-DVER_CPU.deb-bundle.tarYou may need to install the
libaiolibrary if it is not already present on your system:shell>
sudo apt-get install libaio1Preconfigure the MySQL server package with the following command:
shell>
sudo dpkg-preconfigure mysql-community-server_*.debYou will be asked to provide a password for the root user for your MySQL installation. You might also be asked other questions regarding the installation.
ImportantMake sure you remember the root password you set. Users who want to set a password later can leave the password field blank in the dialogue box and just press ; in that case, root access to the server is authenticated using the MySQL Socket Peer-Credential Authentication Plugin for connections using a Unix socket file. You can set the root password later using mysql_secure_installation.
For a basic installation of the MySQL server, install the database common files package, the client package, the client metapackage, the server package, and the server metapackage (in that order); you can do that with a single command:
shell>
sudo dpkg -i mysql-{common,community-client,client,community-server,server}_*.debThere are also packages with
server-coreandclient-corein the package names. These contain binaries only and are installed automatically by the standard packages. Installing them by themselves will not result in a functioning MySQL setup.If you are being warned of unmet dependencies by dpkg, you can fix them using apt-get:
sudo apt-get -f installHere are where the files are installed on the system:
All configuration files (like
my.cnf) are under/etc/mysqlAll binaries, libraries, headers, etc., are under
/usr/binand/usr/sbinThe data directory is under
/var/lib/mysql
Debian distributions of MySQL are also provided by other vendors. Be aware that they may differ from those built by Oracle in features, capabilities, and conventions (including communication setup), and that the instructions in this manual do not necessarily apply to installing them. The vendor's instructions should be consulted instead.
The Docker deployment framework supports easy installation and configuration of MySQL Server. This section explains how to use a MySQL Server Docker image.
You need to have Docker installed on your system before you can use a MySQL Server Docker image. See Install Docker for instructions.
You need to either run docker commands with
sudo, or create a docker
usergroup, and then add to it any users who want to run
docker commands. See details
here.
Because Docker containers are always run with root privileges,
you should understand the
Docker
daemon attack surface and properly mitigate the related
risks.
The instructions for using the MySQL Docker container are divided into two sections.
Downloading a MySQL Server Docker Image
Downloading the server image in a separate step is not strictly necessary; however, performing this step before you create your Docker container ensures your local image is up to date. To download the MySQL Community Server image, run this command:
docker pull mysql/mysql-server:tag
The tag is the label for the image
version you want to pull (for example, 5.5,
5.6, 5.7,
8.0, or latest). If
: is
omitted, the taglatest label is used, and the
image for the latest GA version of MySQL Community Server is
downloaded. Refer to the list of tags for available versions on
the
mysql/mysql-server
page in the Docker Hub.
To download the MySQL Enterprise Edition 8.0 image, run this command:
docker pull store/oracle/mysql-enterprise-server:8.0You can list downloaded Docker images with this command:
shell> docker images
REPOSITORY TAG IMAGE ID CREATED SIZE
mysql/mysql-server latest 3157d7f55f8d 4 weeks ago 241MB
Starting a MySQL Server Instance
Start a new Docker container for the MySQL Server with this command:
docker run --name=mysql1 -d mysql/mysql-server:tag
The --name option, for supplying a custom name
for your server container (mysql1 in the
example), is optional; if no container name is supplied, a
random one is generated. If the Docker image of the specified
name and tag has not been downloaded by an earlier
docker pull or docker run
command, the image is now downloaded. After download completes,
initialization for the container begins, and the container
appears in the list of running containers when you run the
docker ps command; for example:
shell> docker ps
CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES
a24888f0d6f4 mysql/mysql-server "/entrypoint.sh my..." 14 seconds ago Up 13 seconds (health: starting) 3306/tcp, 33060/tcp mysql1
The container initialization might take some time. When the
server is ready for use, the STATUS of the
container in the output of the docker ps
command changes from (health: starting) to
(healthy).
The -d option used in the docker
run command above makes the container run in the
background. Use this command to monitor the output from the
container:
docker logs mysql1
Once initialization is finished, the command's output is going to contain the random password generated for the root user; check the password with, for example, this command:
shell> docker logs mysql1 2>&1 | grep GENERATED
GENERATED ROOT PASSWORD: Axegh3kAJyDLaRuBemecis&EShOs
Connecting to MySQL Server from within the Container
Once the server is ready, you can run the mysql client within the MySQL Server container you just started, and connect it to the MySQL Server. Use the docker exec -it command to start a mysql client inside the Docker container you have started, like the following:
docker exec -it mysql1 mysql -uroot -p
When asked, enter the generated root password (see the last step
in Starting a MySQL Server Instance above on how
to find the password). Because the
MYSQL_ONETIME_PASSWORD
option is true by default, after you have connected a
mysql client to the server, you must reset
the server root password by issuing this statement:
mysql> ALTER USER 'root'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';
Substitute password with the password
of your choice. Once the password is reset, the server is ready
for use.
Container Shell Access
To have shell access to your MySQL Server container, use the docker exec -it command to start a bash shell inside the container:
shell> docker exec -it mysql1 bash
bash-4.2#You can then run Linux commands inside the container. For example, to view contents in the server's data directory inside the container, use this command:
bash-4.2# ls /var/lib/mysql
auto.cnf ca.pem client-key.pem ib_logfile0 ibdata1 mysql mysql.sock.lock private_key.pem server-cert.pem sys
ca-key.pem client-cert.pem ib_buffer_pool ib_logfile1 ibtmp1 mysql.sock performance_schema public_key.pem server-key.pem
Stopping and Deleting a MySQL Container
To stop the MySQL Server container we have created, use this command:
docker stop mysql1docker stop sends a SIGTERM signal to the mysqld process, so that the server is shut down gracefully.
Also notice that when the main process of a container (mysqld in the case of a MySQL Server container) is stopped, the Docker container stops automatically.
To start the MySQL Server container again:
docker start mysql1To stop and start again the MySQL Server container with a single command:
docker restart mysql1To delete the MySQL container, stop it first, and then use the docker rm command:
docker stop mysql1docker rm mysql1
If you want the
Docker
volume for the server's data directory to be deleted at
the same time, add the -v option to the
docker rm command.
Upgrading a MySQL Server Container
Before performing any upgrade to MySQL, follow carefully the instructions in Section 2.10.1, “Upgrading MySQL”. Among other instructions discussed there, it is especially important to back up your database before the upgrade.
The instructions in this section require that the server's data and configuration have been persisted on the host. See Persisting Data and Configuration Changes for details.
Follow these steps to upgrade a Docker installation of MySQL 5.7 to 8.0:
Stop the MySQL 5.7 server (container name is
mysql57in this example):docker stop mysql57Download the MySQL 8.0 Server Docker image.
For MySQL Community Edition, run this command:
docker pull mysql/mysql-server:8.0For MySQL Enterprise Edition, run this command:
docker pull store/oracle/mysql-enterprise-server:8.0Start a new MySQL 8.0 Docker container (named
mysql80in this example) with the old server data and configuration (with proper modifications if needed—see Section 2.10.1, “Upgrading MySQL”) that have been persisted on the host (by bind-mounting in this example).For the MySQL Community Server, run this command:
docker run --name=mysql80 \ --mount type=bind,src=/path-on-host-machine/my.cnf,dst=/etc/my.cnf \ --mount type=bind,src=/path-on-host-machine/datadir,dst=/var/lib/mysql \ -d mysql/mysql-server:8.0For the MySQL Enterprise Server, run this command:
docker run --name=mysql80 \ --mount type=bind,src=/path-on-host-machine/my.cnf,dst=/etc/my.cnf \ --mount type=bind,src=/path-on-host-machine/datadir,dst=/var/lib/mysql \ -d store/oracle/mysql-enterprise-server:8.0Wait for the server to finish startup. You can check the status of the server using the docker ps command (see Starting a MySQL Server Instance for how to do that).
Run the mysql_upgrade utility in the MySQL 8.0 Server container:
docker exec -it mysql80 mysql_upgrade -uroot -pWhen prompted, enter the root password for your old MySQL 5.7 Server.
Finish the upgrade by restarting the MySQL 8.0 Server container:
docker restart mysql80
More Topics on Deploying MySQL Server with Docker
For more topics on deploying MySQL Server with Docker like server configuration, persisting data and configuration, server error log, and container environment variables, see Section 2.5.6.2, “More Topics on Deploying MySQL Server with Docker”.
The Optimized MySQL Installation for Docker
Docker images for MySQL are optimized for code size, which means they only include crucial components that are expected to be relevant for the majority of users who run MySQL instances in Docker containers. A MySQL Docker installation is different from a common, non-Docker installation in the following aspects:
Included binaries are limited to:
/usr/bin/my_print_defaults
/usr/bin/mysql
/usr/bin/mysql_config
/usr/bin/mysql_install_db
/usr/bin/mysql_tzinfo_to_sql
/usr/bin/mysql_upgrade
/usr/bin/mysqladmin
/usr/bin/mysqlcheck
/usr/bin/mysqldump
/usr/bin/mysqlpump
/usr/sbin/mysqld
All binaries are stripped; they contain no debug information.
Configuring the MySQL Server
When you start the MySQL Docker container, you can pass configuration options to the server through the docker run command; for example, for the MySQL Server:
docker run --name mysql1 -d mysql/mysql-server --character-set-server=utf8mb4 --collation-server=utf8mb4_col
The command starts your MySQL Server with
utf8mb4 as the default character set and
utf8mb4_col as the default collation for your
databases.
Another way to configure the MySQL Server is to prepare a configuration file and mount it at the location of the server configuration file inside the container. See Persisting Data and Configuration Changes for details.
Persisting Data and Configuration Changes
Docker containers are in principle ephemeral, and any data or
configuration are expected to be lost if the container is
deleted or corrupted (see discussions
here).
Docker
volumes, however, provides a mechanism to persist data
created inside a Docker container. At its initialization, the
MySQL Server container creates a Docker volume for the server
data directory. The JSON output for running the docker
inspect command on the container has a
Mount key, whose value provides information
on the data directory volume:
shell> docker inspect mysql1
...
"Mounts": [

The output shows that the source folder
/var/lib/docker/volumes/4f2d463cfc4bdd4baebcb098c97d7da3337195ed2c6572bc0b89f7e845d27652/_data,
in which data is persisted on the host, has been mounted at
/var/lib/mysql, the server data directory
inside the container.
Another way to preserve data is to
bind-mount
a host directory using the --mount option when
creating the container. The same technique can be used to
persist the configuration of the server. The following command
creates a MySQL Server container and bind-mounts both the data
directory and the server configuration file:
docker run --name=mysql1 \
--mount type=bind,src=/path-on-host-machine/my.cnf,dst=/etc/my.cnf \
--mount type=bind,src=/path-on-host-machine/datadir,dst=/var/lib/mysql \
-d mysql/mysql-server:tag
The command mounts
path-on-host-machine/my.cnf/etc/my.cnfpath-on-host-machine/datadir/var/lib/mysql
The configuration file
path-on-host-machine/my.cnfmysql:[mysqld] user=mysql
You can also include other server configuration options in the file.
The data directory
path-on-host-machine/datadir
Running Additional Initialization Scripts
If there are any .sh or
.sql scripts you want to run on the
database immediately after it has been created, you can put them
into a host directory and then mount the directory at
/docker-entrypoint-initdb.d/ inside the
container. For example, for a MySQL Server container:
docker run --name=mysql1 \
--mount type=bind,src=/path-on-host-machine/scripts/,dst=/docker-entrypoint-initdb.d/ \
-d mysql/mysql-server:tagConnect to MySQL from an Application in Another Docker Container
By setting up a Docker network, you can allow multiple Docker containers to communicate with each other, so that a client application in another Docker container can access the MySQL Server in the server container. First, create a Docker network:
docker network create my-custom-net
Then, when you are creating and starting the server and the
client containers, use the --network option to
put them on network you created. For example:
docker run --name=mysql1 --network=my-custom-net -d mysql/mysql-serverdocker run --name=myapp1 --network=my-custom-net -d myapp
The myapp1 container can then connect to the
mysql1 container with the
mysql1 hostname and vice versa, as Docker
automatically sets up a DNS for the given container names. In
the following example, we run the
mysql client from inside
the myapp1 container to connect to host
mysql1 in its own container:
docker exec -it myapp1 mysql --host=mysql1 --user=myuser --passwordFor other networking techniques for containers, see the Docker container networking section in the Docker Documentation.
Server Error Log
When the MySQL Server is first started with your server container, a server error log is NOT generated if either of the following conditions is true:
A server configuration file from the host has been mounted, but the file does not contain the system variable
log_error(see Persisting Data and Configuration Changes on bind-mounting a server configuration file).A server configuration file from the host has not been mounted, but the Docker environment variable
MYSQL_LOG_CONSOLEistrue(which is the variable's default state for MySQL 8.0 server containers). The MySQL Server's error log is then redirected tostderr, so that the error log goes into the Docker container's log and is viewable using the docker logsmysqld-containercommand.
To make MySQL Server generate an error log when either of the
two conditions is true, use the
--log-error option to
configure the
server to generate the error log at a specific location
inside the container. To persist the error log, mount a host
file at the location of the error log inside the container as
explained in
Persisting Data and Configuration Changes. However,
you must make sure your MySQL Server inside its container has
write access to the mounted host file.
Docker Environment Variables
When you create a MySQL Server container, you can configure the
MySQL instance by using the --env option
(-e in short) and specifying one or more of the
following environment variables.
None of the variables below has any effect if the data directory you mount is not empty, as no server initialization is going to be attempted then (see Persisting Data and Configuration Changes for more details). Any pre-existing contents in the folder, including any old server settings, are not modified during the container startup.
The boolean variables including
MYSQL_RANDOM_ROOT_PASSWORD,MYSQL_ONETIME_PASSWORD,MYSQL_ALLOW_EMPTY_PASSWORD, andMYSQL_LOG_CONSOLEare made true by setting them with any strings of nonzero lengths. Therefore, setting them to, for example, “0”, “false”, or “no” does not make them false, but actually makes them true. This is a known issue of the MySQL Server containers.
MYSQL_RANDOM_ROOT_PASSWORD: When this variable is true (which is its default state, unlessMYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORDorMYSQL_ALLOW_EMPTY_PASSWORDis set to true), a random password for the server's root user is generated when the Docker container is started. The password is printed tostdoutof the container and can be found by looking at the container’s log (see Starting a MySQL Server Instance).MYSQL_ONETIME_PASSWORD: When the variable is true (which is its default state, unlessMYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORDis set orMYSQL_ALLOW_EMPTY_PASSWORDis set to true), the root user's password is set as expired and must be changed before MySQL can be used normally.MYSQL_DATABASE: This variable allows you to specify the name of a database to be created on image startup. If a user name and a password are supplied withMYSQL_USERandMYSQL_PASSWORD, the user is created and granted superuser access to this database (corresponding toGRANT ALL). The specified database is created by a CREATE DATABASE IF NOT EXIST statement, so that the variable has no effect if the database already exists.MYSQL_USER,MYSQL_PASSWORD: These variables are used in conjunction to create a user and set that user's password, and the user is granted superuser permissions for the database specified by theMYSQL_DATABASEvariable. BothMYSQL_USERandMYSQL_PASSWORDare required for a user to be created—if any of the two variables is not set, the other is ignored. If both variables are set butMYSQL_DATABASEis not, the user is created without any privileges.NoteThere is no need to use this mechanism to create the root superuser, which is created by default with the password set by either one of the mechanisms discussed in the descriptions for
MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORDandMYSQL_RANDOM_ROOT_PASSWORD, unlessMYSQL_ALLOW_EMPTY_PASSWORDis true.MYSQL_ROOT_HOST: By default, MySQL creates the'root'@'localhost'account. This account can only be connected to from inside the container as described in Connecting to MySQL Server from within the Container. To allow root connections from other hosts, set this environment variable. For example, the value172.17.0.1, which is the default Docker gateway IP, allows connections from the host machine that runs the container. The option accepts only one entry, but wildcards are allowed (for example,MYSQL_ROOT_HOST=172.*.*.*orMYSQL_ROOT_HOST=%).MYSQL_LOG_CONSOLE: When the variable is true (which is its default state for MySQL 8.0 server containers), the MySQL Server's error log is redirected tostderr, so that the error log goes into the Docker container's log and is viewable using the docker logsmysqld-containercommand.NoteThe variable has no effect if a server configuration file from the host has been mounted (see Persisting Data and Configuration Changes on bind-mounting a configuration file).
MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD: This variable specifies a password that is set for the MySQL root account.WarningSetting the MySQL root user password on the command line is insecure. As an alternative to specifying the password explicitly, you can set the variable with a container file path for a password file, and then mount a file from your host that contains the password at the container file path. This is still not very secure, as the location of the password file is still exposed. It is preferable to use the default settings of
MYSQL_RANDOM_ROOT_PASSWORD=trueandMYSQL_ONETIME_PASSWORD=truebeing both true.MYSQL_ALLOW_EMPTY_PASSWORD. Set it to true to allow the container to be started with a blank password for the root user.WarningSetting this variable to true is insecure, because it is going to leave your MySQL instance completely unprotected, allowing anyone to gain complete superuser access. It is preferable to use the default settings of
MYSQL_RANDOM_ROOT_PASSWORD=trueandMYSQL_ONETIME_PASSWORD=truebeing both true.
Many Linux distributions include a version of the MySQL server, client tools, and development components in their native software repositories and can be installed with the platforms' standard package management systems. This section provides basic instructions for installing MySQL using those package management systems.
Native packages are often several versions behind the currently available release. You will also normally be unable to install development milestone releases (DMRs), as these are not usually made available in the native repositories. Before proceeding, we recommend that you check out the other installation options described in Section 2.5, “Installing MySQL on Linux”.
Distribution specific instructions are shown below:
Red Hat Linux, Fedora, CentOS
NoteFor a number of Linux distributions, you can install MySQL using the MySQL Yum repository instead of the platform's native software repository. See Section 2.5.1, “Installing MySQL on Linux Using the MySQL Yum Repository” for details.
For Red Hat and similar distributions, the MySQL distribution is divided into a number of separate packages,
mysqlfor the client tools,mysql-serverfor the server and associated tools, andmysql-libsfor the libraries. The libraries are required if you want to provide connectivity from different languages and environments such as Perl, Python and others.To install, use the yum command to specify the packages that you want to install. For example:
root-shell> yum install mysql mysql-server mysql-libs mysql-server Loaded plugins: presto, refresh-packagekit Setting up Install Process Resolving Dependencies --> Running transaction check ---> Package mysql.x86_64 0:5.1.48-2.fc13 set to be updated ---> Package mysql-libs.x86_64 0:5.1.48-2.fc13 set to be updated ---> Package mysql-server.x86_64 0:5.1.48-2.fc13 set to be updated --> Processing Dependency: perl-DBD-MySQL for package: mysql-server-5.1.48-2.fc13.x86_64 --> Running transaction check ---> Package perl-DBD-MySQL.x86_64 0:4.017-1.fc13 set to be updated --> Finished Dependency Resolution Dependencies Resolved ================================================================================ Package Arch Version Repository Size ================================================================================ Installing: mysql x86_64 5.1.48-2.fc13 updates 889 k mysql-libs x86_64 5.1.48-2.fc13 updates 1.2 M mysql-server x86_64 5.1.48-2.fc13 updates 8.1 M Installing for dependencies: perl-DBD-MySQL x86_64 4.017-1.fc13 updates 136 k Transaction Summary ================================================================================ Install 4 Package(s) Upgrade 0 Package(s) Total download size: 10 M Installed size: 30 M Is this ok [y/N]: y Downloading Packages: Setting up and reading Presto delta metadata Processing delta metadata Package(s) data still to download: 10 M (1/4): mysql-5.1.48-2.fc13.x86_64.rpm | 889 kB 00:04 (2/4): mysql-libs-5.1.48-2.fc13.x86_64.rpm | 1.2 MB 00:06 (3/4): mysql-server-5.1.48-2.fc13.x86_64.rpm | 8.1 MB 00:40 (4/4): perl-DBD-MySQL-4.017-1.fc13.x86_64.rpm | 136 kB 00:00 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total 201 kB/s | 10 MB 00:52 Running rpm_check_debug Running Transaction Test Transaction Test Succeeded Running Transaction Installing : mysql-libs-5.1.48-2.fc13.x86_64 1/4 Installing : mysql-5.1.48-2.fc13.x86_64 2/4 Installing : perl-DBD-MySQL-4.017-1.fc13.x86_64 3/4 Installing : mysql-server-5.1.48-2.fc13.x86_64 4/4 Installed: mysql.x86_64 0:5.1.48-2.fc13 mysql-libs.x86_64 0:5.1.48-2.fc13 mysql-server.x86_64 0:5.1.48-2.fc13 Dependency Installed: perl-DBD-MySQL.x86_64 0:4.017-1.fc13 Complete!
MySQL and the MySQL server should now be installed. A sample configuration file is installed into
/etc/my.cnf. An init script, to start and stop the server, will have been installed into/etc/init.d/mysqld. To start the MySQL server use service:root-shell> service mysqld start
To enable the server to be started and stopped automatically during boot, use chkconfig:
root-shell> chkconfig --levels 235 mysqld on
Which enables the MySQL server to be started (and stopped) automatically at the specified the run levels.
The database tables will have been automatically created for you, if they do not already exist. You should, however, run mysql_secure_installation to set the root passwords on your server.
Debian, Ubuntu, Kubuntu
NoteFor Debian 8 and Ubuntu 14 and 16, MySQL can be installed using the MySQL APT Repository instead of the platform's native software repository. See Section 2.5.2, “Installing MySQL on Linux Using the MySQL APT Repository” for details.
On Debian and related distributions, there are two packages for MySQL in their software repositories,
mysql-clientandmysql-server, for the client and server components respectively. You should specify an explicit version, for examplemysql-client-5.1, to ensure that you install the version of MySQL that you want.To download and install, including any dependencies, use the apt-get command, specifying the packages that you want to install.
NoteBefore installing, make sure that you update your
apt-getindex files to ensure you are downloading the latest available version.A sample installation of the MySQL packages might look like this (some sections trimmed for clarity):
root-shell> apt-get install mysql-client-5.1 mysql-server-5.1 Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required: linux-headers-2.6.28-11 linux-headers-2.6.28-11-generic Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove them.

NoteThe apt-get command will install a number of packages, including the MySQL server, in order to provide the typical tools and application environment. This can mean that you install a large number of packages in addition to the main MySQL package.
During installation, the initial database will be created, and you will be prompted for the MySQL root password (and confirmation). A configuration file will have been created in
/etc/mysql/my.cnf. An init script will have been created in/etc/init.d/mysql.The server will already be started. You can manually start and stop the server using:
root-shell> service mysql [start|stop]
The service will automatically be added to the 2, 3 and 4 run levels, with stop scripts in the single, shutdown and restart levels.
The Juju deployment framework supports easy installation and configuration of MySQL servers. For instructions, see https://jujucharms.com/mysql/.
If you install MySQL using an RPM or Debian package on the following Linux platforms, server startup and shutdown is managed by systemd:
RPM package platforms:
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7; Oracle Linux 7; CentOS 7
SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 12
Fedora 26, 27, and 28
Debian package platforms:
Debian 8 or higher
Ubuntu 16 or higher
If you install MySQL from a generic binary distribution on a platform that uses systemd, you can manually configure systemd support for MySQL following the instructions provided in the post-installation setup section of the MySQL 8.0 Secure Deployment Guide.
If you install MySQL from a source distribution on a platform that
uses systemd, obtain systemd support for MySQL by configuring the
distribution using the
-DWITH_SYSTEMD=1
CMake option. See
Section 2.8.4, “MySQL Source-Configuration Options”.
The following discussion covers these topics:
On platforms for which systemd support for MySQL is installed, scripts such as mysqld_safe and the System V initialization script are unnecessary and are not installed. For example, mysqld_safe can handle server restarts, but systemd provides the same capability, and does so in a manner consistent with management of other services rather than by using an application-specific program.
Because systemd has the capability of managing multiple MySQL instances on platforms for which systemd support for MySQL is installed, mysqld_multi and mysqld_multi.server are unnecessary and are not installed.
systemd provides automatic MySQL server startup and shutdown. It also enables manual server management using the systemctl command. For example:
systemctl {start|stop|restart|status} mysqld
Alternatively, use the service command (with the arguments reversed), which is compatible with System V systems:
service mysqld {start|stop|restart|status}
For the systemctl or
service commands, if the MySQL service name
is not mysqld, use the appropriate name.
For example, use mysql rather than
mysqld on Debian-based and SLES systems.
Support for systemd includes these files:
mysqld.service(RPM platforms),mysql.service(Debian platforms): systemd service unit configuration file, with details about the MySQL service.mysqld@.service(RPM platforms),mysql@.service(Debian platforms): Likemysqld.serviceormysql.service, but used for managing multiple MySQL instances.mysqld.tmpfiles.d: File containing information to support thetmpfilesfeature. This file is installed under the namemysql.conf.mysqld_pre_systemd(RPM platforms),mysql-system-start(Debian platforms): Support script for the unit file. This script assists in creating the error log file only if the log location matches a pattern (/var/log/mysql*.logfor RPM platforms,/var/log/mysql/*.logfor Debian platforms). In other cases, the error log directory must be writable or the error log must be present and writable for the user running the mysqld process.
To add or change systemd options for MySQL, these methods are available:
Use a localized systemd configuration file.
Arrange for systemd to set environment variables for the MySQL server process.
Set the
MYSQLD_OPTSsystemd variable.
To use a localized systemd configuration file, create the
/etc/systemd/system/mysqld.service.d
directory if it does not exist. In that directory, create a file
that contains a [Service] section listing the
desired settings. For example:
[Service] LimitNOFILE=max_open_filesPIDFile=/path/to/pid/fileNice=nice_levelLimitCore=core_file_limitEnvironment="LD_PRELOAD=/path/to/malloc/library" Environment="TZ=time_zone_setting"
The discussion here uses override.conf as
the name of this file. Newer versions of systemd support the
following command, which opens an editor and permits you to edit
the file:
systemctl edit mysqld # RPM platforms systemctl edit mysql # Debian platforms
Whenever you create or change
override.conf, reload the systemd
configuration, then tell systemd to restart the MySQL service:
systemctl daemon-reload systemctl restart mysqld # RPM platforms systemctl restart mysql # Debian platforms
With systemd, the override.conf
configuration method must be used for certain parameters, rather
than settings in a [mysqld] or
[mysqld_safe] group in a MySQL option file:
For some parameters,
override.confmust be used because systemd itself must know their values and it cannot read MySQL option files to get them.Parameters that specify values otherwise settable only using options known to mysqld_safe must be specified using systemd because there is no corresponding mysqld parameter.
For additional information about using systemd rather than mysqld_safe, see Migrating from mysqld_safe to systemd.
You can set the following parameters in
override.conf:
To specify the process ID file, use
override.confand change bothPIDFileandExecStartto name the PID file path name. Any setting of the process ID file in MySQL option files is ignored. To modifyExecStart, it must first be cleared. For example:[Service] PIDFile=/var/run/mysqld/mysqld-custom.pid ExecStart= ExecStart=/usr/sbin/mysqld --daemonize --pid-file=/var/run/mysqld/mysqld-custom.pid $MYSQLD_OPTS
To set the number of file descriptors available to the MySQL server, use
LimitNOFILEinoverride.confrather than the--open-files-limitoption for mysqld or mysqld_safe.To set the maximum core file size, use
LimitCoreinoverride.confrather than the--core-file-sizeoption for mysqld_safe.To set the scheduling priority for the MySQL server, use
Niceinoverride.confrather than the--niceoption for mysqld_safe.
Some MySQL parameters are configured using environment variables:
LD_PRELOAD: Set this variable if the MySQL server should use a specific memory-allocation library.NOTIFY_SOCKET: This environment variable specifies the socket that mysqld uses to communicate notification of startup completion and service status change with systemd. It is set by systemd when the mysqld service is started. The mysqld service reads the variable setting and writes to the defined location. If the variable is not set, mysqld writes nothing.TZ: Set this variable to specify the default time zone for the server.
There are multiple ways to specify environment variable values for use by the MySQL server process managed by systemd:
Use
Environmentlines in theoverride.conffile. For the syntax, see the example in the preceding discussion that describes how to use this file.Specify the values in the
/etc/sysconfig/mysqlfile (create the file if it does not exist). Assign values using the following syntax:LD_PRELOAD=
/path/to/malloc/libraryTZ=time_zone_settingAfter modifying
/etc/sysconfig/mysql, restart the server to make the changes effective:systemctl restart mysqld # RPM platforms systemctl restart mysql # Debian platforms
To specify options for mysqld without
modifying systemd configuration files directly, set or unset the
MYSQLD_OPTS systemd variable. For example:
systemctl set-environment MYSQLD_OPTS="--general_log=1" systemctl unset-environment MYSQLD_OPTS
MYSQLD_OPTS can also be set in the
/etc/sysconfig/mysql file.
After modifying the systemd environment, restart the server to make the changes effective:
systemctl restart mysqld # RPM platforms systemctl restart mysql # Debian platforms
For platforms that use systemd, the data directory is
initialized if empty at server startup. This might be a problem
if the data directory is a remote mount that has temporarily
disappeared: The mount point would appear to be an empty data
directory, which then would be initialized as a new data
directory. To suppress this automatic initialization behavior,
specify the following line in the
/etc/sysconfig/mysql file (create the file
if it does not exist):
NO_INIT=true
This section describes how to configure systemd for multiple instances of MySQL.
Because systemd has the capability of managing multiple MySQL instances on platforms for which systemd support is installed, mysqld_multi and mysqld_multi.server are unnecessary and are not installed.
To use multiple-instance capability, modify the
my.cnf option file to include configuration
of key options for each instance. These file locations are
typical:
/etc/my.cnfor/etc/mysql/my.cnf(RPM platforms)/etc/mysql/mysql.conf.d/mysqld.cnf(Debian platforms)
For example, to manage two instances named
replica01 and replica02,
add something like this to the option file:
RPM platforms:
[mysqld@replica01] datadir=/var/lib/mysql-replica01 socket=/var/lib/mysql-replica01/mysql.sock port=3307 log-error=/var/log/mysqld-replica01.log [mysqld@replica02] datadir=/var/lib/mysql-replica02 socket=/var/lib/mysql-replica02/mysql.sock port=3308 log-error=/var/log/mysqld-replica02.log
Debian platforms:
[mysqld@replica01] datadir=/var/lib/mysql-replica01 socket=/var/lib/mysql-replica01/mysql.sock port=3307 log-error=/var/log/mysql/replica01.log [mysqld@replica02] datadir=/var/lib/mysql-replica02 socket=/var/lib/mysql-replica02/mysql.sock port=3308 log-error=/var/log/mysql/replica02.log
The replica names shown here use @ as the
delimiter because that is the only delimiter supported by
systemd.
Instances then are managed by normal systemd commands, such as:
systemctl start mysqld@replica01 systemctl start mysqld@replica02
To enable instances to run at boot time, do this:
systemctl enable mysqld@replica01 systemctl enable mysqld@replica02
Use of wildcards is also supported. For example, this command displays the status of all replica instances:
systemctl status 'mysqld@replica*'
For management of multiple MySQL instances on the same machine, systemd automatically uses a different unit file:
mysqld@.servicerather thanmysqld.service(RPM platforms)mysql@.servicerather thanmysql.service(Debian platforms)
In the unit file, %I and
%i reference the parameter passed in after
the @ marker and are used to manage the
specific instance. For a command such as this:
systemctl start mysqld@replica01
systemd starts the server using a command such as this:
mysqld --defaults-group-suffix=@%I ...
The result is that the [server],
[mysqld], and
[mysqld@replica01] option groups are read and
used for that instance of the service.
On Debian platforms, AppArmor prevents the server from reading
or writing /var/lib/mysql-replica*, or
anything other than the default locations. To address this,
you must customize or disable the profile in
/etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.mysqld.
On Debian platforms, the packaging scripts for MySQL
uninstallation cannot currently handle
mysqld@ instances. Before removing or
upgrading the package, you must stop any extra instances
manually first.
Because mysqld_safe is not installed on
platforms that use systemd to manage MySQL, options previously
specified for that program (for example, in an
[mysqld_safe] option group) must be specified
another way:
Some mysqld_safe options are also understood by mysqld and can be moved from the
[mysqld_safe]option group to the[mysqld]group. This does not include--pid-file,--open-files-limit, or--nice. To specify those options, use theoverride.confsystemd file, described previously.For some mysqld_safe options, there are alternative mysqld procedures. For example, the mysqld_safe option for enabling
sysloglogging is--syslog, which is deprecated. To write error log output to the system log, use the instructions at Section 5.4.2.3, “Error Logging to the System Log”.mysqld_safe options not understood by mysqld can be specified in
override.confor environment variables. For example, with mysqld_safe, if the server should use a specific memory allocation library, this is specified using the--malloc-liboption. For installations that manage the server with systemd, arrange to set theLD_PRELOADenvironment variable instead, as described previously.
Linux supports a number of different solutions for installing MySQL, covered in Section 2.5, “Installing MySQL on Linux”. One of the methods, covered in this section, is installing from Oracle's Unbreakable Linux Network (ULN). You can find information about Oracle Linux and ULN under http://linux.oracle.com/.
To use ULN, you need to obtain a ULN login and register the machine used for installation with ULN. This is described in detail in the ULN FAQ. The page also describes how to install and update packages.The MySQL packages are in the “MySQL for Oracle Linux 6” and “MySQL for Oracle Linux 7” channels for your system architecture on ULN.
At the time of this writing, ULN provides MySQL 8.0 for Oracle Linux 6 and Oracle Linux 7.
Once MySQL has been installed using ULN, you can find information on starting and stopping the server, and more, in this section, particularly under Section 2.5.4, “Installing MySQL on Linux Using RPM Packages from Oracle”.
If you're updating an existing MySQL installation to an installation using ULN, the recommended procedure is to export your data using mysqldump, remove the existing installation, install MySQL from ULN, and load the exported data into your freshly installed MySQL.
If the existing MySQL installation you're upgrading from is from a previous release series (prior to MySQL 8.0), make sure to read the section on upgrading MySQL, Section 2.10.1, “Upgrading MySQL”.
This section provides information about installing MySQL on variants of FreeBSD Unix.
You can install MySQL on FreeBSD by using the binary distribution provided by Oracle. For more information, see Section 2.2, “Installing MySQL on Unix/Linux Using Generic Binaries”.
The easiest (and preferred) way to install MySQL is to use the
mysql-server and mysql-client
ports available at http://www.freebsd.org/. Using
these ports gives you the following benefits:
A working MySQL with all optimizations enabled that are known to work on your version of FreeBSD.
Automatic configuration and build.
Startup scripts installed in
/usr/local/etc/rc.d.The ability to use
pkg_info -Lto see which files are installed.The ability to use
pkg_deleteto remove MySQL if you no longer want it on your machine.
The MySQL build process requires GNU make (gmake) to work. If GNU make is not available, you must install it first before compiling MySQL.
To install using the ports system:
# cd /usr/ports/databases/mysql80-server # make ... # cd /usr/ports/databases/mysql80-client # make ...
The standard port installation places the server into
/usr/local/libexec/mysqld, with the startup
script for the MySQL server placed in
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/mysql-server.
Some additional notes on the BSD implementation:
To remove MySQL after installation using the ports system:
# cd /usr/ports/databases/mysql80-server # make deinstall ... # cd /usr/ports/databases/mysql80-client # make deinstall ...
If you get problems with the current date in MySQL, setting the
TZvariable should help. See Section 4.9, “MySQL Program Environment Variables”.

Building MySQL from the source code enables you to customize build parameters, compiler optimizations, and installation location. For a list of systems on which MySQL is known to run, see http://www.mysql.com/support/supportedplatforms/database.html.
Before you proceed with an installation from source, check whether Oracle produces a precompiled binary distribution for your platform and whether it works for you. We put a great deal of effort into ensuring that our binaries are built with the best possible options for optimal performance. Instructions for installing binary distributions are available in Section 2.2, “Installing MySQL on Unix/Linux Using Generic Binaries”.
Building MySQL with nonstandard options may lead to reduced functionality, performance, or security.
The MySQL source code contains internal documentation written using Doxygen. The generated Doxygen content is available at http://dev.mysql.com/doc/dev/mysql-server/latest/. It is also possible to generate this content locally from a MySQL source distribution using the instructions at Section 2.8.7, “Generating MySQL Doxygen Documentation Content”.
Source Installation Methods
There are two methods for installing MySQL from source:
Use a standard MySQL source distribution. To obtain a standard distribution, see Section 2.1.2, “How to Get MySQL”. For instructions on building from a standard distribution, see Section 2.8.2, “Installing MySQL Using a Standard Source Distribution”.
Standard distributions are available as compressed tar files, Zip archives, or RPM packages. Distribution files have names of the form
mysql-,VERSION.tar.gzmysql-, orVERSION.zipmysql-, whereVERSION.rpmVERSIONis a number like8.0.13. File names for source distributions can be distinguished from those for precompiled binary distributions in that source distribution names are generic and include no platform name, whereas binary distribution names include a platform name indicating the type of system for which the distribution is intended (for example,pc-linux-i686orwinx64).Use a MySQL development tree. For information on building from one of the development trees, see Section 2.8.3, “Installing MySQL Using a Development Source Tree”.
Source Installation System Requirements
Installation of MySQL from source requires several development tools. Some of these tools are needed no matter whether you use a standard source distribution or a development source tree. Other tool requirements depend on which installation method you use.
To install MySQL from source, the following system requirements must be satisfied, regardless of installation method:
CMake, which is used as the build framework on all platforms. CMake can be downloaded from http://www.cmake.org.
A good make program. Although some platforms come with their own make implementations, it is highly recommended that you use GNU make 3.75 or higher. It may already be available on your system as gmake. GNU make is available from http://www.gnu.org/software/make/.
MySQL 8.0 source code permits use of C++11 features. To enable a good level of C++11 support across all supported platforms, the following minimum compiler versions apply:
GCC: 4.8 or higher
Clang: 3.4 or higher (Xcode 7 on macOS)
Solaris Studio: 12.4 or higher (Solaris client build only)
Visual Studio: 2015
CMake: On Windows, the required Visual Studio version results in a required CMake version of 3.2.3 or higher
The MySQL C API requires a C++ or C99 compiler to compile.
The Boost C++ libraries are required to build MySQL (but not to use it). The current version of Boost must be installed. To obtain Boost and its installation instructions, visit the official site. After Boost is installed, tell the build system where the Boost files are located by defining the
WITH_BOOSToption when you invoke CMake. For example:shell>
cmake . -DWITH_BOOST=/usr/local/boost_version_numberAdjust the path as necessary to match your installation.
The ncurses library.
Sufficient free memory. If you encounter problems such as “internal compiler error” when compiling large source files, it may be that you have too little memory. If compiling on a virtual machine, try increasing the memory allocation.
Perl is needed if you intend to run test scripts. Most Unix-like systems include Perl. On Windows, you can use a version such as ActiveState Perl.
To install MySQL from a standard source distribution, one of the following tools is required to unpack the distribution file:
For a
.tar.gzcompressed tar file: GNUgunzipto uncompress the distribution and a reasonable tar to unpack it. If your tar program supports thezoption, it can both uncompress and unpack the file.GNU tar is known to work. The standard tar provided with some operating systems is not able to unpack the long file names in the MySQL distribution. You should download and install GNU tar, or if available, use a preinstalled version of GNU tar. Usually this is available as gnutar, gtar, or as tar within a GNU or Free Software directory, such as
/usr/sfw/binor/usr/local/bin. GNU tar is available from http://www.gnu.org/software/tar/.For a
.zipZip archive: WinZip or another tool that can read.zipfiles.For an
.rpmRPM package: The rpmbuild program used to build the distribution unpacks it.
To install MySQL from a development source tree, the following additional tools are required:
The Git revision control system is required to obtain the development source code. The GitHub Help provides instructions for downloading and installing Git on different platforms. MySQL officially joined GitHub in September, 2014. For more information about MySQL's move to GitHub, refer to the announcement on the MySQL Release Engineering blog: MySQL on GitHub
bison 2.1 or higher, available from http://www.gnu.org/software/bison/. (Version 1 is no longer supported.) Use the latest version of bison where possible; if you experience problems, upgrade to a later version, rather than revert to an earlier one.
bison is available from http://www.gnu.org/software/bison/.
bisonfor Windows can be downloaded from http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/bison.htm. Download the package labeled “Complete package, excluding sources”. On Windows, the default location for bison is theC:\Program Files\GnuWin32directory. Some utilities may fail to find bison because of the space in the directory name. Also, Visual Studio may simply hang if there are spaces in the path. You can resolve these problems by installing into a directory that does not contain a space; for exampleC:\GnuWin32.On Solaris Express, m4 must be installed in addition to bison. m4 is available from http://www.gnu.org/software/m4/.
If you have to install any programs, modify your
PATH environment variable to include any
directories in which the programs are located. See
Section 4.2.10, “Setting Environment Variables”.
If you run into problems and need to file a bug report, please use the instructions in Section 1.7, “How to Report Bugs or Problems”.
By default, when you install MySQL after compiling it from source,
the installation step installs files under
/usr/local/mysql. The component locations
under the installation directory are the same as for binary
distributions. See Table 2.3, “MySQL Installation Layout for Generic Unix/Linux Binary Package”,
and Section 2.3.1, “MySQL Installation Layout on Microsoft Windows”. To configure
installation locations different from the defaults, use the
options described at
Section 2.8.4, “MySQL Source-Configuration Options”.
To install MySQL from a standard source distribution:
Verify that your system satisfies the tool requirements listed at Section 2.8, “Installing MySQL from Source”.
Obtain a distribution file using the instructions in Section 2.1.2, “How to Get MySQL”.
Configure, build, and install the distribution using the instructions in this section.
Perform postinstallation procedures using the instructions in Section 2.9, “Postinstallation Setup and Testing”.
In MySQL 8.0, CMake is used as the build framework on all platforms. The instructions given here should enable you to produce a working installation. For additional information on using CMake to build MySQL, see How to Build MySQL Server with CMake.
If you start from a source RPM, use the following command to make a binary RPM that you can install. If you do not have rpmbuild, use rpm instead.
shell> rpmbuild --rebuild --clean MySQL-VERSION.src.rpm
The result is one or more binary RPM packages that you install as indicated in Section 2.5.4, “Installing MySQL on Linux Using RPM Packages from Oracle”.
The sequence for installation from a compressed tar file or Zip archive source distribution is similar to the process for installing from a generic binary distribution (see Section 2.2, “Installing MySQL on Unix/Linux Using Generic Binaries”), except that it is used on all platforms and includes steps to configure and compile the distribution. For example, with a compressed tar file source distribution on Unix, the basic installation command sequence looks like this:
# Preconfiguration setup shell>groupadd mysqlshell>useradd -r -g mysql -s /bin/false mysql# Beginning of source-build specific instructions shell>tar zxvf mysql-shell>VERSION.tar.gzcd mysql-shell>VERSIONmkdir bldshell>cd bldshell>cmake ..shell>makeshell>make install# End of source-build specific instructions # Postinstallation setup shell>cd /usr/local/mysqlshell>mkdir mysql-filesshell>chown mysql:mysql mysql-filesshell>chmod 750 mysql-filesshell>bin/mysqld --initialize --user=mysqlshell>bin/mysql_ssl_rsa_setupshell>bin/mysqld_safe --user=mysql &# Next command is optional shell>cp support-files/mysql.server /etc/init.d/mysql.server
A more detailed version of the source-build specific instructions is shown following.
The procedure shown here does not set up any passwords for MySQL accounts. After following the procedure, proceed to Section 2.9, “Postinstallation Setup and Testing”, for postinstallation setup and testing.
Perform Preconfiguration Setup
On Unix, set up the mysql user and group that
will be used to run and execute the MySQL server and own the
database directory. For details, see
Creating a
mysql System User and Group, in
Section 2.2, “Installing MySQL on Unix/Linux Using Generic Binaries”. Then perform the following
steps as the mysql user, except as noted.
Obtain and Unpack the Distribution
Pick the directory under which you want to unpack the distribution and change location into it.
Obtain a distribution file using the instructions in Section 2.1.2, “How to Get MySQL”.
Unpack the distribution into the current directory:
To unpack a compressed tar file, tar can uncompress and unpack the distribution if it has
zoption support:shell>
tar zxvf mysql-VERSION.tar.gzIf your tar does not have
zoption support, use gunzip to unpack the distribution and tar to unpack it:shell>
gunzip < mysql-VERSION.tar.gz | tar xvf -Alternatively, CMake can uncompress and unpack the distribution:
shell>
cmake -E tar zxvf mysql-VERSION.tar.gzTo unpack a Zip archive, use WinZip or another tool that can read
.zipfiles.
Unpacking the distribution file creates a directory named
mysql-.
VERSION
Configure the Distribution
Change location into the top-level directory of the unpacked distribution:
shell> cd mysql-VERSION
Build outside of the source tree to keep the tree clean. If the
top-level source directory is named mysql-src
under your current working directory, you can build in a directory
named bld at the same level. Create the
directory and go there:
shell>mkdir bldshell>cd bld
Configure the build directory. The minimum configuration command includes no options to override configuration defaults:
shell> cmake ../mysql-src
The build directory needs not be outside the source tree.
For example, you can build in a directory named
bld under the top-level source tree. To do
this, starting with mysql-src as your current
working directory, create the directory bld
and then go there:
shell>mkdir bldshell>cd bld
Configure the build directory. The minimum configuration command includes no options to override configuration defaults:
shell> cmake ..
If you have multiple source trees at the same level (for example, to build multiple versions of MySQL), the second strategy can be advantageous. The first strategy places all build directories at the same level, which requires that you choose a unique name for each. With the second strategy, you can use the same name for the build directory within each source tree. The following instructions assume this second strategy.
On Windows, specify the development environment. For example, the following commands configure MySQL for 32-bit or 64-bit builds, respectively:
shell>cmake .. -G "Visual Studio 12 2013"shell>cmake .. -G "Visual Studio 12 2013 Win64"
On macOS, to use the Xcode IDE:
shell> cmake .. -G Xcode
When you run cmake, you might want to add options to the command line. Here are some examples:
-DBUILD_CONFIG=mysql_release: Configure the source with the same build options used by Oracle to produce binary distributions for official MySQL releases.-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=: Configure the distribution for installation under a particular location.dir_name-DCPACK_MONOLITHIC_INSTALL=1: Cause make package to generate a single installation file rather than multiple files.-DWITH_DEBUG=1: Build the distribution with debugging support.
For a more extensive list of options, see Section 2.8.4, “MySQL Source-Configuration Options”.
To list the configuration options, use one of the following commands:
shell>cmake .. -L# overview shell>cmake .. -LH# overview with help text shell>cmake .. -LAH# all params with help text shell>ccmake ..# interactive display
If CMake fails, you might need to reconfigure by running it again with different options. If you do reconfigure, take note of the following:
If CMake is run after it has previously been run, it may use information that was gathered during its previous invocation. This information is stored in
CMakeCache.txt. When CMake starts up, it looks for that file and reads its contents if it exists, on the assumption that the information is still correct. That assumption is invalid when you reconfigure.Each time you run CMake, you must run make again to recompile. However, you may want to remove old object files from previous builds first because they were compiled using different configuration options.
To prevent old object files or configuration information from being used, run these commands in the build direcotry on Unix before re-running CMake:
shell>make cleanshell>rm CMakeCache.txt
Or, on Windows:
shell>devenv MySQL.sln /cleanshell>del CMakeCache.txt
If you are going to send mail to a MySQL mailing list to ask for
configuration assistance, first check the files in the
CMakeFiles directory for useful information
about the failure. To file a bug report, please use the
instructions in Section 1.7, “How to Report Bugs or Problems”.
Build the Distribution
On Unix:
shell>makeshell>make VERBOSE=1
The second command sets VERBOSE to show the
commands for each compiled source.
Use gmake instead on systems where you are using GNU make and it has been installed as gmake.
On Windows:
shell> devenv MySQL.sln /build RelWithDebInfo
If you have gotten to the compilation stage, but the distribution
does not build, see Section 2.8.5, “Dealing with Problems Compiling MySQL”, for
help. If that does not solve the problem, please enter it into our
bugs database using the instructions given in
Section 1.7, “How to Report Bugs or Problems”. If you have installed the latest
versions of the required tools, and they crash trying to process
our configuration files, please report that also. However, if you
get a command not found error or a similar
problem for required tools, do not report it. Instead, make sure
that all the required tools are installed and that your
PATH variable is set correctly so that your
shell can find them.
Install the Distribution
On Unix:
shell> make install
This installs the files under the configured installation
directory (by default, /usr/local/mysql). You
might need to run the command as root.
To install in a specific directory, add a
DESTDIR parameter to the command line:
shell> make install DESTDIR="/opt/mysql"
Alternatively, generate installation package files that you can install where you like:
shell> make package
This operation produces one or more .tar.gz
files that can be installed like generic binary distribution
packages. See Section 2.2, “Installing MySQL on Unix/Linux Using Generic Binaries”. If you run
CMake with
-DCPACK_MONOLITHIC_INSTALL=1, the
operation produces a single file. Otherwise, it produces multiple
files.
On Windows, generate the data directory, then create a
.zip archive installation package:
shell>devenv MySQL.sln /build RelWithDebInfo /project initial_databaseshell>devenv MySQL.sln /build RelWithDebInfo /project package
You can install the resulting .zip archive
where you like. See Section 2.3.5, “Installing MySQL on Microsoft Windows Using a
noinstall ZIP Archive”.
Perform Postinstallation Setup
The remainder of the installation process involves setting up the configuration file, creating the core databases, and starting the MySQL server. For instructions, see Section 2.9, “Postinstallation Setup and Testing”.
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 Section 2.9, “Postinstallation Setup and Testing”.
This section describes how to install MySQL from the latest development source code, which is hosted on GitHub. To obtain the MySQL Server source code from this repository hosting service, you can set up a local MySQL Git repository.
On GitHub, MySQL Server and other MySQL projects are found on the MySQL page. The MySQL Server project is a single repository that contains branches for several MySQL series.
MySQL officially joined GitHub in September, 2014. For more information about MySQL's move to GitHub, refer to the announcement on the MySQL Release Engineering blog: MySQL on GitHub
To install MySQL from a development source tree, your system must satisfy the tool requirements outlined in Section 2.8, “Installing MySQL from Source”.
To set up a MySQL Git repository on your machine, use this procedure:
Clone the MySQL Git repository to your machine. The following command clones the MySQL Git repository to a directory named
mysql-server. The initial download will take some time to complete, depending on the speed of your connection.~$ git clone https://github.com/mysql/mysql-server.git Cloning into 'mysql-server'... remote: Counting objects: 1198513, done. remote: Total 1198513 (delta 0), reused 0 (delta 0), pack-reused 1198513 Receiving objects: 100% (1198513/1198513), 1.01 GiB | 7.44 MiB/s, done. Resolving deltas: 100% (993200/993200), done. Checking connectivity... done. Checking out files: 100% (25510/25510), done.
When the clone operation completes, the contents of your local MySQL Git repository appear similar to the following:
~$ cd mysql-server ~/mysql-server$ ls BUILD cmd-line-utils libservices sql CMakeLists.txt config.h.cmake man sql-common COPYING configure.cmake mysql-test storage Docs dbug mysys strings Doxyfile-perfschema extra mysys_ssl support-files INSTALL include packaging testclients README libbinlogevents plugin unittest VERSION libbinlogstandalone rapid vio client libevent regex win cmake libmysql scripts zlib
Use the git branch -r command to view the remote tracking branches for the MySQL repository.
~/mysql-server$ git branch -r origin/5.5 origin/5.6 origin/5.7 origin/8.0 origin/HEAD -> origin/5.7 origin/cluster-7.2 origin/cluster-7.3 origin/cluster-7.4 origin/cluster-7.5
To view the branches that are checked out in your local repository, issue the git branch command. When you cloned the MySQL Git repository, the MySQL 5.7 branch was checked out automatically. The asterisk identifies the 5.7 branch as the active branch.
~/mysql-server$ git branch * 5.7
To check out a different MySQL branch, run the git checkout command, specifying the branch name. For example, to check out the MySQL 8.0 branch:
~/mysql-server$ git checkout 8.0 Checking out files: 100% (9600/9600), done. Branch 8.0 set up to track remote branch 8.0 from origin. Switched to a new branch '8.0'
Run
git branchto verify that the MySQL 8.0 branch is present. MySQL 8.0, which is the last branch you checked out, is marked by an asterisk indicating that it is the active branch.~/mysql-server$ git branch 5.7 * 8.0
Use the git checkout command to switch between branches. For example:
~/mysql-server$ git checkout 5.7
To obtain changes made after your initial setup of the MySQL Git repository, switch to the branch you want to update and issue the
git pullcommand:~/mysql-server$ git checkout 8.0 ~/mysql-server$ git pull
To examine the commit history, use the
git logoption:~/mysql-server$ git log
You can also browse commit history and source code on the GitHub MySQL site.
If you see changes or code that you have a question about, send an email to the MySQL
internalsmailing list. See Section 1.6.2, “MySQL Mailing Lists”. For information about contributing a patch, see Contributing to MySQL Server.After you have cloned the MySQL Git repository and have checked out the branch you want to build, you can build MySQL Server from the source code. Instructions are provided in Section 2.8.2, “Installing MySQL Using a Standard Source Distribution”, except that you skip the part about obtaining and unpacking the distribution.
Be careful about installing a build from a distribution source tree on a production machine. The installation command may overwrite your live release installation. If you already have MySQL installed and do not want to overwrite it, run CMake with values for the
CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX,MYSQL_TCP_PORT, andMYSQL_UNIX_ADDRoptions different from those used by your production server. For additional information about preventing multiple servers from interfering with each other, see Section 5.7, “Running Multiple MySQL Instances on One Machine”.Play hard with your new installation. For example, try to make new features crash. Start by running make test. See Section 28.1.2, “The MySQL Test Suite”.
The CMake program provides a great deal of control over how you configure a MySQL source distribution. Typically, you do this using options on the CMake command line. For information about options supported by CMake, run either of these commands in the top-level source directory:
shell>cmake . -LHshell>ccmake .
You can also affect CMake using certain environment variables. See Section 4.9, “MySQL Program Environment Variables”.
The following table shows the available CMake
options. In the Default column,
PREFIX stands for the value of the
CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX option, which
specifies the installation base directory. This value is used as
the parent location for several of the installation
subdirectories.

The following sections provide more information about CMake options.
For boolean options, the value may be specified as 1 or
ON to enable the option, or as 0 or
OFF to disable the option.
Many options configure compile-time defaults that can be
overridden at server startup. For example, the
CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX,
MYSQL_TCP_PORT, and
MYSQL_UNIX_ADDR options that
configure the default installation base directory location, TCP/IP
port number, and Unix socket file can be changed at server startup
with the --basedir,
--port, and
--socket options for
mysqld. Where applicable, configuration option
descriptions indicate the corresponding mysqld
startup option.
General Options
This option configures a source distribution with the same build options used by Oracle to produce binary distributions for official MySQL releases.
-DBUNDLE_RUNTIME_LIBRARIES=boolWhether to bundle runtime libraries with server MSI and Zip packages for Windows.
The type of build to produce:
RelWithDebInfo: Enable optimizations and generate debugging information. This is the default MySQL build type.Debug: Disable optimizations and generate debugging information. This build type is also used if theWITH_DEBUGoption is enabled. That is,-DWITH_DEBUG=1has the same effect as-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug.
-DCPACK_MONOLITHIC_INSTALL=boolThis option affects whether the make package operation produces multiple installation package files or a single file. If disabled, the operation produces multiple installation package files, which may be useful if you want to install only a subset of a full MySQL installation. If enabled, it produces a single file for installing everything.
Installation Layout Options
The CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX option
indicates the base installation directory. Other options with
names of the form
INSTALL_ that
indicate component locations are interpreted relative to the
prefix and their values are relative pathnames. Their values
should not include the prefix.
xxx
-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=dir_nameThe installation base directory.
This value can be set at server startup with the
--basediroption.Where to install user programs.
Where to install documentation.
-DINSTALL_DOCREADMEDIR=dir_nameWhere to install
READMEfiles.Where to install header files.
Where to install Info files.
Select a predefined installation layout:
STANDALONE: Same layout as used for.tar.gzand.zippackages. This is the default.RPM: Layout similar to RPM packages.SVR4: Solaris package layout.DEB: DEB package layout (experimental).
You can select a predefined layout but modify individual component installation locations by specifying other options. For example:
shell>
cmake . -DINSTALL_LAYOUT=SVR4 -DMYSQL_DATADIR=/var/mysql/dataThe
INSTALL_LAYOUTvalue determines the default value of thesecure_file_priv,keyring_encrypted_file_data, andkeyring_file_datasystem variables. See the descriptions of those variables in Section 5.1.7, “Server System Variables”, and Section 6.5.4.11, “Keyring System Variables”.Where to install library files.
Where to install manual pages.
-DINSTALL_MYSQLKEYRINGDIR=dir_pathThe default directory to use as the location of the
keyring_fileplugin data file. The default value is platform specific and depends on the value of theINSTALL_LAYOUTCMake option; see the description of thekeyring_file_datasystem variable in Section 5.1.7, “Server System Variables”.-DINSTALL_MYSQLSHAREDIR=dir_nameWhere to install shared data files.
-DINSTALL_MYSQLTESTDIR=dir_nameWhere to install the
mysql-testdirectory. To suppress installation of this directory, explicitly set the option to the empty value (-DINSTALL_MYSQLTESTDIR=).-DINSTALL_PKGCONFIGDIR=dir_nameThe directory in which to install the
mysqlclient.pcfile for use by pkg-config. The default value isINSTALL_LIBDIR/pkgconfig, unlessINSTALL_LIBDIRends with/mysql, in which case that is removed first.The location of the plugin directory.
This value can be set at server startup with the
--plugin_diroption.Where to install the mysqld server.
-DINSTALL_SECURE_FILE_PRIVDIR=dir_nameThe default value for the
secure_file_privsystem variable. The default value is platform specific and depends on the value of theINSTALL_LAYOUTCMake option; see the description of thesecure_file_privsystem variable in Section 5.1.7, “Server System Variables”.Where to install
aclocal/mysql.m4.-DINSTALL_STATIC_LIBRARIES=boolWhether to install static libraries. The default is
ON. If set toOFF, these libraries are not installed:libmysqlclient.a,libmysqlservices.a.-DINSTALL_SUPPORTFILESDIR=dir_nameWhere to install extra support files.
Whether to randomize the order of symbols in the mysqld binary. The default is
OFF. This option should be enabled only for debugging purposes.Seed value for the
LINK_RANDOMIZEoption. The value is a string. The default ismysql, an arbitrary choice.The location of the MySQL data directory.
This value can be set at server startup with the
--datadiroption.The location of the ODBC includes directory, and may be used while configuring Connector/ODBC.
The location of the ODBC library directory, and may be used while configuring Connector/ODBC.
The default
my.cnfoption file directory.This location cannot be set at server startup, but you can start the server with a given option file using the
--defaults-file=option, wherefile_namefile_nameis the full path name to the file.The name of the directory in which to create the PID file when MySQL is managed by systemd. The default is
/var/run/mysqld; this might be changed implicitly according to theINSTALL_LAYOUTvalue.This option is ignored unless
WITH_SYSTEMDis enabled.The name of the MySQL service to use when MySQL is managed by systemd. The default is
mysqld; this might be changed implicitly according to theINSTALL_LAYOUTvalue.This option is ignored unless
WITH_SYSTEMDis enabled.The default location to use for the
tmpdirsystem variable. If unspecified, the value defaults toP_tmpdirin<stdio.h>.
Storage Engine Options
Storage engines are built as plugins. You can build a plugin as a
static module (compiled into the server) or a dynamic module
(built as a dynamic library that must be installed into the server
using the INSTALL PLUGIN statement
or the --plugin-load option before
it can be used). Some plugins might not support static or dynamic
building.
The InnoDB,
MyISAM,
MERGE,
MEMORY, and
CSV engines are mandatory (always
compiled into the server) and need not be installed explicitly.
To compile a storage engine statically into the server, use
-DWITH_.
Some permissible engine_STORAGE_ENGINE=1engine values are
ARCHIVE, BLACKHOLE,
EXAMPLE, and FEDERATED.
Examples:
-DWITH_ARCHIVE_STORAGE_ENGINE=1 -DWITH_BLACKHOLE_STORAGE_ENGINE=1
It is not possible to compile without Performance Schema support. If it is desired to compile without particular types of instrumentation, that can be done with the following CMake options:
DISABLE_PSI_COND DISABLE_PSI_DATA_LOCK DISABLE_PSI_ERROR DISABLE_PSI_FILE DISABLE_PSI_IDLE DISABLE_PSI_MEMORY DISABLE_PSI_METADATA DISABLE_PSI_MUTEX DISABLE_PSI_PS DISABLE_PSI_RWLOCK DISABLE_PSI_SOCKET DISABLE_PSI_SP DISABLE_PSI_STAGE DISABLE_PSI_STATEMENT DISABLE_PSI_STATEMENT_DIGEST DISABLE_PSI_TABLE DISABLE_PSI_THREAD DISABLE_PSI_TRANSACTION
For example, to compile without mutex instrumentation, configure
MySQL using the -DDISABLE_PSI_MUTEX=1 option.
To exclude a storage engine from the build, use
-DWITH_.
Examples:
engine_STORAGE_ENGINE=0
-DWITH_ARCHIVE_STORAGE_ENGINE=0 -DWITH_EXAMPLE_STORAGE_ENGINE=0 -DWITH_FEDERATED_STORAGE_ENGINE=0
It is also possible to exclude a storage engine from the build
using
-DWITHOUT_
(but
engine_STORAGE_ENGINE=1-DWITH_
is preferred). Examples:
engine_STORAGE_ENGINE=0
-DWITHOUT_ARCHIVE_STORAGE_ENGINE=1 -DWITHOUT_EXAMPLE_STORAGE_ENGINE=1 -DWITHOUT_FEDERATED_STORAGE_ENGINE=1
If neither
-DWITH_
nor
engine_STORAGE_ENGINE-DWITHOUT_
are specified for a given storage engine, the engine is built as a
shared module, or excluded if it cannot be built as a shared
module.
engine_STORAGE_ENGINE
Feature Options
A descriptive comment about the compilation environment.
-DDEFAULT_CHARSET=charset_nameThe server character set. By default, MySQL uses the
utf8mb4character set.charset_namemay be one ofbinary,armscii8,ascii,big5,cp1250,cp1251,cp1256,cp1257,cp850,cp852,cp866,cp932,dec8,eucjpms,euckr,gb2312,gbk,geostd8,greek,hebrew,hp8,keybcs2,koi8r,koi8u,latin1,latin2,latin5,latin7,macce,macroman,sjis,swe7,tis620,ucs2,ujis,utf8,utf8mb4,utf16,utf16le,utf32. The permissible character sets are listed in thecmake/character_sets.cmakefile as the value ofCHARSETS_AVAILABLE.This value can be set at server startup with the
--character_set_serveroption.-DDEFAULT_COLLATION=collation_nameThe server collation. By default, MySQL uses
utf8mb4_0900_ai_ci. Use theSHOW COLLATIONstatement to determine which collations are available for each character set.This value can be set at server startup with the
--collation_serveroption.Whether to exclude the Performance Schema condition instrumentation. The default is
OFF(include).Whether to exclude the Performance Schema file instrumentation. The default is
OFF(include).Whether to exclude the Performance Schema idle instrumentation. The default is
OFF(include).Whether to exclude the Performance Schema memory instrumentation. The default is
OFF(include).Whether to exclude the Performance Schema metadata instrumentation. The default is
OFF(include).Whether to exclude the Performance Schema mutex instrumentation. The default is
OFF(include).Whether to exclude the Performance Schema rwlock instrumentation. The default is
OFF(include).Whether to exclude the Performance Schema socket instrumentation. The default is
OFF(include).Whether to exclude the Performance Schema stored program instrumentation. The default is
OFF(include).Whether to exclude the Performance Schema stage instrumentation. The default is
OFF(include).Whether to exclude the Performance Schema statement instrumentation. The default is
OFF(include).-DDISABLE_PSI_STATEMENT_DIGEST=boolWhether to exclude the Performance Schema statement_digest instrumentation. The default is
OFF(include).Whether to exclude the Performance Schema table instrumentation. The default is
OFF(include).Whether to disable building build shared libraries and compile position-dependent code. The default is
OFF(compile position-independent code).Enabling this option disables
-fPIC, with the consequence that shared libraries are not built, including plugins and components. InvokingCMakeproduces this warning:Dynamic plugins are disabled.Exclude the performance schema prepared statements instances instrumentation. The default is
OFF(include).Exclude the performance schema thread instrumentation. The default is
OFF(include).Only disable threads when building without any instrumentation, because other instrumentations have a dependency on threads.
-DDISABLE_PSI_TRANSACTION=boolExclude the performance schema transaction instrumentation. The default is
OFF(include).Exclude the performance schema data lock instrumentation. The default is
OFF(include).Exclude the performance schema server error instrumentation. The default is
OFF(include).Whether to download the Boost library. The default is
OFF.See the
WITH_BOOSToption for additional discussion about using Boost.-DDOWNLOAD_BOOST_TIMEOUT=secondsThe timeout in seconds for downloading the Boost library. The default is 600 seconds.
See the
WITH_BOOSToption for additional discussion about using Boost.As of MySQL 8.0.1,
ENABLE_DEBUG_SYNCis removed and enablingWITH_DEBUGenables Debug Sync.Whether to download optional files. For example, with this option enabled, CMake downloads the Google Test distribution that is used by the test suite to run unit tests, or Ant and JUnit required for building GCS Java wrapper.
Whether to include support for DTrace probes.
This option was removed in MySQL 8.0.1.
-DENABLE_EXPERIMENTAL_SYSVARS=boolWhether to enable experimental
InnoDBsystem variables. Experimental system variables are intended for those engaged in MySQL development, should only be used in a development or test environment, and may be removed without notice in a future MySQL release. For information about experimental system variables, refer to/storage/innobase/handler/ha_innodb.ccin the MySQL source tree. Experimental system variables can be identified by searching for “PLUGIN_VAR_EXPERIMENTAL”.Whether to include gcov support (Linux only).
Whether to enable
gprof(optimized Linux builds only).This option controls the compiled-in default
LOCALcapability for the MySQL client library. Clients that make no explicit arrangements therefore haveLOCALcapability disabled or enabled according to theENABLED_LOCAL_INFILEsetting specified at MySQL build time.By default, the client library in MySQL binary distributions is compiled with
ENABLED_LOCAL_INFILEdisabled. If you compile MySQL from source, configure it withENABLED_LOCAL_INFILEdisabled or enabled based on whether clients that make no explicit arrangements should haveLOCALcapability disabled or enabled, respectively.ENABLED_LOCAL_INFILEcontrols the default for client-sideLOCALcapability. For the server, thelocal_infilesystem variable controls server-sideLOCALcapability. To explicitly cause the server to refuse or permitLOAD DATA LOCALstatements (regardless of how client programs and libraries are configured at build time or runtime), start mysqld withlocal_infiledisabled or enabled, respectively.local_infilecan also be set at runtime. See Section 6.1.6, “Security Issues with LOAD DATA LOCAL”.Whether to enable query profiling code (for the
SHOW PROFILEandSHOW PROFILESstatements).-DFORCE_UNSUPPORTED_COMPILER=boolBy default, CMake checks for minimum versions of supported compilers: Visual Studio 2015 (Windows); GCC 4.8 or Clang 3.4 (Linux); Developer Studio 12.5 (Solaris server); Developer Studio 12.4 or GCC 4.8 (Solaris client library); Clang 3.6 (macOS), Clang 3.4 (FreeBSD). To disable this check, use
-DFORCE_UNSUPPORTED_COMPILER=ON.If the
-DBUILD_CONFIG=mysql_releaseoption is given on Linux, thelibaiolibrary must be linked in by default. If you do not havelibaioor do not want to install it, you can suppress the check for it by specifying-DIGNORE_AIO_CHECK=1.The maximum number of indexes per table. The default is 64. The maximum is 255. Values smaller than 64 are ignored and the default of 64 is used.
Whether to enable a MySQL maintainer-specific development environment. If enabled, this option causes compiler warnings to become errors.
The mutex type used by
InnoDB. Options include:event: Use event mutexes. This is the default value and the originalInnoDBmutex implementation.sys: Use POSIX mutexes on UNIX systems. UseCRITICAL_SECTIONonjects on Windows, if available.futex: Use Linux futexes instead of condition variables to schedule waiting threads.
The port number on which X Plugin listens for TCP/IP connections. The default is 33060.
This value can be set at server startup with the
--mysqlx-portoption.The Unix socket file path on which the server listens for X Plugin socket connections. This must be an absolute path name. The default is
/tmp/mysqlx.sock.This value can be set at server startup with the
--mysqlx-socketoption.For Windows or macOS, the project name to incorporate into the project file name.
The port number on which the server listens for TCP/IP connections. The default is 3306.
This value can be set at server startup with the
--portoption.The Unix socket file path on which the server listens for socket connections. This must be an absolute path name. The default is
/tmp/mysql.sock.This value can be set at server startup with the
--socketoption.Whether to support optimizer tracing. See MySQL Internals: Tracing the Optimizer.
For builds on Linux systems, this option controls whether to take extra care to create a build result independent of build location and time.
This option was added in MySQL 8.0.11. As of MySQL 8.0.12, it defaults to
ONforRelWithDebInfobuilds.CMake causes the build process to link with the GNU gold linker if it is available. To suppress use of this linker, specify the
-DUSE_LD_GOLD=0option.Whether to disable function inlining on Windows. The default is off (inlining enabled).
Set the path to Ant, required when building GCS Java wrapper. Works in a similar way to the existing
WITH_BOOSTCMake option. SetWITH_ANTto the path of a directory where the Ant tarball, or an already unpacked archive, is saved. WhenWITH_ANTis not set, or is set with the special valuesystem, the build assumes a binary ant exists in$PATH.Whether to enable the AddressSanitizer, for compilers that support it. The default is off.
Whether to enable the AddressSanitizer
-fsanitize-address-use-after-scopeClang flag for use-after-scope detection. The default is off. To use this option,-DWITH_ASANmust also be enabled.-DWITH_AUTHENTICATION_LDAP=boolWhether to report an error if the LDAP authentication plugins cannot be built:
If this option is disabled (the default), the LDAP plugins are built if the required header files and libraries are found. If they are not, CMake displays a note about it.
If this option is enabled, a failure to find the required header file andlibraries causes CMake to produce an error, preventing the server from being built.
-DWITH_AUTHENTICATION_PAM=boolWhether to build the PAM authentication plugin, for source trees that include this plugin. (See Section 6.5.1.5, “PAM Pluggable Authentication”.) If this option is specified and the plugin cannot be compiled, the build fails.
The location of the Amazon Web Services software development kit.
The Boost library is required to build MySQL. These CMake options enable control over the library source location, and whether to download it automatically:
-DWITH_BOOST=specifies the Boost library directory location. It is also possible to specify the Boost location by setting thepath_nameBOOST_ROOTorWITH_BOOSTenvironment variable.-DWITH_BOOST=systemis also permitted and indicates that the correct version of Boost is installed on the compilation host in the standard location. In this case, the installed version of Boost is used rather than any version included with a MySQL source distribution.-DDOWNLOAD_BOOST=specifies whether to download the Boost source if it is not present in the specified location. The default isboolOFF.-DDOWNLOAD_BOOST_TIMEOUT=the timeout in seconds for downloading the Boost library. The default is 600 seconds.seconds
For example, if you normally build MySQL placing the object output in the
bldsubdirectory of your MySQL source tree, you can build with Boost like this:mkdir bld cd bld cmake .. -DDOWNLOAD_BOOST=ON -DWITH_BOOST=$HOME/my_boost
This causes Boost to be downloaded into the
my_boostdirectory under your home directory. If the required Boost version is already there, no download is done. If the required Boost version changes, the newer version is downloaded.If Boost is already installed locally and your compiler finds the Boost header files on its own, it may not be necessary to specify the preceding CMake options. However, if the version of Boost required by MySQL changes and the locally installed version has not been upgraded, you may have build problems. Using the CMake options should give you a successful build.
With the above settings that allow Boost download into a specified location, when the required Boost version changes, you need to remove the
bldfolder, recreate it, and perform the cmake step again. Otherwise, the new Boost version might not get downloaded, and compilation might fail.-DWITH_CLIENT_PROTOCOL_TRACING=boolWhether to build the client-side protocol tracing framework into the client library. By default, this option is enabled.
For information about writing protocol trace client plugins, see Section 28.2.4.11, “Writing Protocol Trace Plugins”.
See also the
WITH_TEST_TRACE_PLUGINoption.The location of the curl library.
curl_typecan besystem(use the system curl library) or a path name to the curl library.Whether to include debugging support.
Configuring MySQL with debugging support enables you to use the
--debug="d,parser_debug"option when you start the server. This causes the Bison parser that is used to process SQL statements to dump a parser trace to the server's standard error output. Typically, this output is written to the error log.Sync debug checking for the
InnoDBstorage engine is defined underUNIV_DEBUGand is available when debugging support is compiled in using theWITH_DEBUGoption. When debugging support is compiled in, theinnodb_sync_debugconfiguration option can be used to enable or disableInnoDBsync debug checking.Enabling
WITH_DEBUGalso enables Debug Sync. This facility is used for testing and debugging. When compiled in, Debug Sync is disabled by default at runtime. To enable it, start mysqld with the--debug-sync-timeout=option, whereNNis a timeout value greater than 0. (The default value is 0, which disables Debug Sync.)Nbecomes the default timeout for individual synchronization points.Sync debug checking for the
InnoDBstorage engine is available when debugging support is compiled in using theWITH_DEBUGoption.For a description of the Debug Sync facility and how to use synchronization points, see MySQL Internals: Test Synchronization.
-DWITH_DEFAULT_FEATURE_SET=boolWhether to use the flags from
cmake/build_configurations/feature_set.cmake.Which
libedit/editlinelibrary to use. The permitted values arebundled(the default) andsystem.-DWITH_ICU={icu_type|path_name}MySQL uses International Components for Unicode (ICU) to support regular expression operations. The
WITH_ICUoption indicates the type of ICU support to include or the path name to the ICU installation to use.icu_typecan be one of the following values:bundled: Use the ICU library bundled with the distribution. This is the default, and is the only supported option for Windows.system: Use the system ICU library.
path_nameis the path name to the ICU installation to use. This can be preferable to using theicu_typevalue ofsystembecause it can prevent CMake from detecting and using an older or incorrect ICU version installed on the system. (Another permitted way to do the same thing is to setWITH_ICUtosystemand set theCMAKE_PREFIX_PATHoption topath_name.)
-DWITH_INNODB_EXTRA_DEBUG=boolWhether to include extra InnoDB debugging support.
Enabling
WITH_INNODB_EXTRA_DEBUGturns on extra InnoDB debug checks. This option can only be enabled whenWITH_DEBUGis enabled.Whether to generate memcached shared libraries (
libmemcached.soandinnodb_engine.so).Whether to build the test program that accompanies the
keyring_fileplugin. The default isOFF. Test file source code is located in theplugin/keyring/keyring-testdirectory.Which
libeventlibrary to use. Permitted values arebundled(default),system, andyes. If you specifysystemoryes, the systemlibeventlibrary is used if present. If the system library is not found, the bundledlibeventlibrary is used. Thelibeventlibrary is required byInnoDBmemcached.Whether to include
libwrap(TCP wrappers) support.The
WITH_LZ4indicates the source ofzlibsupport:bundled: Use thelz4library bundled with the distribution. This is the default.system: Use the systemlz4library. IfWITH_LZ4is set to this value, the lz4_decompress utility is not built. In this case, the system lz4 command can be used instead.
Whether to enable MemorySanitizer, for compilers that support it. The default is off.
For this option to have an effect if enabled, all libraries linked to MySQL must also have been compiled with the option enabled.
-DWITH_MECAB={disabled|system|path_name}Use this option to compile the MeCab parser. If you have installed MeCab to its default installation directory, set
-DWITH_MECAB=system. Thesystemoption applies to MeCab installations performed from source or from binaries using a native package management utility. If you installed MeCab to a custom installation directory, specify the path to the MeCab installation. For example,-DWITH_MECAB=/opt/mecab. If thesystemoption does not work, specifying the MeCab installation path should work in all cases.For related information, see Section 12.9.9, “MeCab Full-Text Parser Plugin”.
Whether to enable Visual Studio CRT memory leak tracing. The default is
OFF.Explicitly set the NUMA memory allocation policy. CMake sets the default
WITH_NUMAvalue based on whether the current platform hasNUMAsupport. For platforms without NUMA support, CMake behaves as follows:With no NUMA option (the normal case), CMake continues normally, producing only this warning: NUMA library missing or required version not available
With
-DWITH_NUMA=ON, CMake aborts with this error: NUMA library missing or required version not available
Which Protocol Buffers package to use.
protobuf_typecan be one of the following values:bundled: Use the package bundled with the distribution. This is the default.system: Use the package installed on the system.
Other values are ignored, with a fallback to
bundled.Whether to build the rapid development cycle plugins. When enabled, a
rapiddirectory is created in the build tree containing these plugins. When disabled, norapiddirectory is created in the build tree. The default isON, unless therapiddirectory is removed from the source tree, in which case the default becomesOFF.The type of LZMA library support to include.
lzma_typecan be one of the following values:bundled: Use the LZMA library bundled with the distribution. This is the default.system: Use the system LZMA library.
The type of RE2 library support to include.
re2_typecan be one of the following values:bundled: Use the RE2 library bundled with the distribution. This is the default.system: Use the system RE2 library.
-DWITH_SSL={|ssl_typepath_name}The type of SSL support to include or the path name to the OpenSSL installation to use.
ssl_typecan be one of the following values:system: Use the system SSL library. This is the default.On macOS and Windows, using
systembuilds as if CMake was invoked withpath_nameand points to the installed OpenSSL library. This is because they do not have system SSL libraries. On macOS, brew install openssl installs to/usr/local/opt/opensslandsystemwill find it. On Windows, it checks %ProgramFiles%/OpenSSL, %ProgramFiles%/OpenSSL-Win32, %ProgramFiles%/OpenSSL-Win64, C:/OpenSSL, C:/OpenSSL-Win32, and C:/OpenSSL-Win64.yes: This is a synonym forsystem.wolfssl: Use the wolfSSL library. To use this option value, you must follow the instructions in theextra/README-wolfssl.txtfile.
path_nameis the path name to the OpenSSL installation to use. This can be preferable to using thessl_typevalue ofsystembecause it can prevent CMake from detecting and using an older or incorrect OpenSSL version installed on the system. (Another permitted way to do the same thing is to setWITH_SSLtosystemand set theCMAKE_PREFIX_PATHoption topath_name.)
For information about using SSL support, see Section 6.4, “Using Encrypted Connections”.
Whether to enable installation of systemd support files. By default, this option is disabled. When enabled, systemd support files are installed, and scripts such as mysqld_safe and the System V initialization script are not installed. On platforms where systemd is not available, enabling
WITH_SYSTEMDresults in an error from CMake.For more information about using systemd, see Section 2.5.9, “Managing MySQL Server with systemd”. That section also includes information about specifying options previously specified in
[mysqld_safe]option groups. Because mysqld_safe is not installed when systemd is used, such options must be specified another way.This option serves as an “umbrella” option to set the
systemvalue of any of the following CMake options that are not set explicitly:WITH_CURL,WITH_EDITLINE,WITH_ICU,WITH_LIBEVENT,WITH_LZ4,WITH_LZMA,WITH_PROTOBUF,WITH_RE2,WITH_SSL,WITH_ZLIB.Whether to build the test protocol trace client plugin (see Section 28.2.4.11.1, “Using the Test Protocol Trace Plugin”). By default, this option is disabled. Enabling this option has no effect unless the
WITH_CLIENT_PROTOCOL_TRACINGoption is enabled. If MySQL is configured with both options enabled, thelibmysqlclientclient library is built with the test protocol trace plugin built in, and all the standard MySQL clients load the plugin. However, even when the test plugin is enabled, it has no effect by default. Control over the plugin is afforded using environment variables; see Section 28.2.4.11.1, “Using the Test Protocol Trace Plugin”.NoteDo not enable the
WITH_TEST_TRACE_PLUGINoption if you want to use your own protocol trace plugins because only one such plugin can be loaded at a time and an error occurs for attempts to load a second one. If you have already built MySQL with the test protocol trace plugin enabled to see how it works, you must rebuild MySQL without it before you can use your own plugins.For information about writing trace plugins, see Section 28.2.4.11, “Writing Protocol Trace Plugins”.
Whether to enable the ThreadSanitizer, for compilers that support it. The default is off.
Whether to enable the Undefined Behavior Sanitizer, for compilers that support it. The default is off.
If enabled, compile MySQL with unit tests. The default is ON unless the server is not being compiled.
Enables unixODBC support, for Connector/ODBC.
Whether to compile in the Valgrind header files, which exposes the Valgrind API to MySQL code. The default is
OFF.To generate a Valgrind-aware debug build,
-DWITH_VALGRIND=1normally is combined with-DWITH_DEBUG=1. See Building Debug Configurations.Some features require that the server be built with compression library support, such as the
COMPRESS()andUNCOMPRESS()functions, and compression of the client/server protocol. TheWITH_ZLIBindicates the source ofzlibsupport:bundled: Use thezliblibrary bundled with the distribution. This is the default.system: Use the systemzliblibrary. IfWITH_ZLIBis set to this value, the zlib_decompress utility is not built. In this case, the system openssl zlib command can be used instead.
Whether to build without the MySQL server. The default is
OFF, which does build the server.
Compiler Flags
Flags for the C Compiler.
Flags for the C++ Compiler.
-DWITH_DEFAULT_COMPILER_OPTIONS=boolWhether to use the flags from
cmake/build_configurations/compiler_options.cmake.NoteAll optimization flags were carefully chosen and tested by the MySQL build team. Overriding them can lead to unexpected results and is done at your own risk.
To specify your own C and C++ compiler flags, for flags that do
not affect optimization, use the
CMAKE_C_FLAGS and
CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS CMake options.
When providing your own compiler flags, you might want to specify
CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE as well.
For example, to create a 32-bit release build on a 64-bit Linux machine, do this:
shell>mkdir bldshell>cd bldshell>cmake .. -DCMAKE_C_FLAGS=-m32 \-DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS=-m32 \-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo
If you set flags that affect optimization
(-O), you must
set the
numberCMAKE_C_FLAGS_
and/or
build_typeCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS_
options, where build_typebuild_type corresponds
to the CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE value. To
specify a different optimization for the default build type
(RelWithDebInfo) set the
CMAKE_C_FLAGS_RELWITHDEBINFO and
CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS_RELWITHDEBINFO options. For
example, to compile on Linux with -O3 and with
debug symbols, do this:
shell>cmake .. -DCMAKE_C_FLAGS_RELWITHDEBINFO="-O3 -g" \-DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS_RELWITHDEBINFO="-O3 -g"
The solution to many problems involves reconfiguring. If you do reconfigure, take note of the following:
If CMake is run after it has previously been run, it may use information that was gathered during its previous invocation. This information is stored in
CMakeCache.txt. When CMake starts up, it looks for that file and reads its contents if it exists, on the assumption that the information is still correct. That assumption is invalid when you reconfigure.Each time you run CMake, you must run make again to recompile. However, you may want to remove old object files from previous builds first because they were compiled using different configuration options.
To prevent old object files or configuration information from being used, run the following commands before re-running CMake:
On Unix:
shell>make cleanshell>rm CMakeCache.txt
On Windows:
shell>devenv MySQL.sln /cleanshell>del CMakeCache.txt
If you build outside of the source tree, remove and recreate your build directory before re-running CMake. For instructions on building outside of the source tree, see How to Build MySQL Server with CMake.
On some systems, warnings may occur due to differences in system include files. The following list describes other problems that have been found to occur most often when compiling MySQL:
To define which C and C++ compilers to use, you can define the
CCandCXXenvironment variables. For example:shell>
CC=gccshell>CXX=g++shell>export CC CXXTo specify your own C and C++ compiler flags, use the
CMAKE_C_FLAGSandCMAKE_CXX_FLAGSCMake options. See Compiler Flags.To see what flags you might need to specify, invoke mysql_config with the
--cflagsand--cxxflagsoptions.To see what commands are executed during the compile stage, after using CMake to configure MySQL, run make VERBOSE=1 rather than just make.
If compilation fails, check whether the
MYSQL_MAINTAINER_MODEoption is enabled. This mode causes compiler warnings to become errors, so disabling it may enable compilation to proceed.If your compile fails with errors such as any of the following, you must upgrade your version of make to GNU make:
make: Fatal error in reader: Makefile, line 18: Badly formed macro assignment
Or:
make: file `Makefile' line 18: Must be a separator (:
Or:
pthread.h: No such file or directory
Solaris and FreeBSD are known to have troublesome make programs.
GNU make 3.75 is known to work.
The
sql_yacc.ccfile is generated fromsql_yacc.yy. Normally, the build process does not need to createsql_yacc.ccbecause MySQL comes with a pregenerated copy. However, if you do need to re-create it, you might encounter this error:"sql_yacc.yy", line
xxxfatal: default action causes potential...This is a sign that your version of yacc is deficient. You probably need to install a recent version of bison (the GNU version of yacc) and use that instead.
Versions of bison older than 1.75 may report this error:
sql_yacc.yy:#####: fatal error: maximum table size (32767) exceeded
The maximum table size is not actually exceeded; the error is caused by bugs in older versions of bison.
For information about acquiring or updating tools, see the system requirements in Section 2.8, “Installing MySQL from Source”.
Third-party tools that need to determine the MySQL version from
the MySQL source can read the VERSION file in
the top-level source directory. The file lists the pieces of the
version separately. For example, if the version is MySQL 8.0.4-rc,
the file looks like this:
MYSQL_VERSION_MAJOR=8 MYSQL_VERSION_MINOR=0 MYSQL_VERSION_PATCH=4 MYSQL_VERSION_EXTRA=-rc
If the source is not for a General Availablility (GA) release, the
MYSQL_VERSION_EXTRA value will be nonempty. For
the example, the value corresponds to Release Candidate.
To construct a five-digit number from the version components, use this formula:
MYSQL_VERSION_MAJOR*10000 + MYSQL_VERSION_MINOR*100 + MYSQL_VERSION_PATCH
The MySQL source code contains internal documentation written using Doxygen. The generated Doxygen content is available at http://dev.mysql.com/doc/dev/mysql-server/latest/. It is also possible to generate this content locally from a MySQL source distribution using the following procedure:
Install doxygen 1.8.11 or higher. Distributions are available here:
http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/download.html
After installing doxygen, verify the version number:
shell>
doxygen --version1.8.11Install PlantUML. Distributions are available here:
http://plantuml.com/download.html
When you install PlantUML on Windows (tested on Windows 10), you must run it at least once as administrator so it creates the registry keys. Open an administrator console and run this command:
java -jar
path-to-plantuml.jarThe command should open a GUI window and return no errors on the console.
Install the Graphviz dot command. Distributions are available here:
http://www.graphviz.org/
After installing Graphviz, verify
dotavailability. For example:shell>
which dot/usr/bin/dot shell>dot -Vdot - graphviz version 2.28.0 (20130928.0220)Set the
PLANTUML_JAR_PATHenvironment to the location where you installed PlantUML. For example:export PLANTUML_JAR_PATH=
path-to-plantuml.jarTo invoke doxygen, change location to the top-level directory of your MySQL source distribution and execute these commands:
mkdir -p generated/doxygen doxygen
Inspect the error log. It is available in the
doxyerror.logfile in the top-level directory. Assuming that the build executed successfully, view the generated output using a browser. For example:firefox generated/doxygen/html/index.html
You can use a different browser, and even bookmark the page.
This section discusses tasks that you should perform after installing MySQL:
If necessary, initialize the data directory and create the MySQL grant tables. For some MySQL installation methods, data directory initialization may be done for you automatically:
Windows installation operations performed by MySQL Installer.
Installation on Linux using a server RPM or Debian distribution from Oracle.
Installation using the native packaging system on many platforms, including Debian Linux, Ubuntu Linux, Gentoo Linux, and others.
Installation on macOS using a DMG distribution.
For other platforms and installation types, including installation from generic binary and source distributions, you must initialize the data directory yourself. For instructions, see Section 2.9.1, “Initializing the Data Directory”.
Start the server and make sure that it can be accessed. For instructions, see Section 2.9.2, “Starting the Server”, and Section 2.9.3, “Testing the Server”.
Assign passwords to the initial
rootaccount in the grant tables, if that was not already done during data directory initialization. Passwords prevent unauthorized access to the MySQL server. For instructions, see Section 2.9.4, “Securing the Initial MySQL Account”.Optionally, arrange for the server to start and stop automatically when your system starts and stops. For instructions, see Section 2.9.5, “Starting and Stopping MySQL Automatically”.
Optionally, populate time zone tables to enable recognition of named time zones. For instructions, see Section 5.1.12, “MySQL Server Time Zone Support”.
When you are ready to create additional user accounts, you can find information on the MySQL access control system and account management in Section 6.2, “The MySQL Access Privilege System”, and Section 6.3, “MySQL User Account Management”.
After installing MySQL, the data directory, including the tables
in the mysql system database, must be
initialized. For some MySQL installation methods, data directory
initialization can be done automatically, as described in
Section 2.9, “Postinstallation Setup and Testing”. For other installation
methods, including installation from generic binary and source
distributions, you must initialize the data directory yourself.
This section describes how to initialize the data directory on Unix and Unix-like systems. (For Windows, see Section 2.3.7, “Windows Postinstallation Procedures”.) For some suggested commands that you can use to test whether the server is accessible and working properly, see Section 2.9.3, “Testing the Server”.
In the examples shown here, the server is going to run under the
user ID of the mysql login account. This
assumes that such an account exists. Either create the account if
it does not exist, or substitute the name of a different existing
login account that you plan to use for running the server. For
information about creating the account, see
Creating a
mysql System User and Group, in
Section 2.2, “Installing MySQL on Unix/Linux Using Generic Binaries”.
Change location into the top-level directory of your MySQL installation directory, which is typically
/usr/local/mysql:shell>
cd /usr/local/mysqlYou will find several files and subdirectories inside the folder, including the
binsubdirectory, which contains the server as well as the client and utility programs.Create a directory whose location can be provided to the
secure_file_privsystem variable, which limits import/export operations to that specific directory:shell>
mkdir mysql-filesGrant ownership of the directory to the
mysqluser and group ownership to themysqlgroup, and set the right permissions for the directory:shell>
chown mysql:mysql mysql-filesshell>chmod 750 mysql-filesInitialize the data directory, including the
mysqldatabase containing the initial MySQL grant tables that determine how users are permitted to connect to the server.Typically, data directory initialization need be done only after you first installed MySQL. If you are upgrading an existing installation, you should run mysql_upgrade instead (see Section 4.4.5, “mysql_upgrade — Check and Upgrade MySQL Tables”). However, the command that initializes the data directory does not overwrite any existing privilege tables, so it should be safe to run in any circumstances. Use the server to initialize the data directory; for example:
shell>
bin/mysqld --initialize --user=mysqlSee Section 2.9.1.1, “Initializing the Data Directory Manually Using mysqld” for some important information on the command, especially on the command options you might use.
NoteInitialization of the data directory might fail because some required software libraries are missing from your system. For example:
shell>
bin/mysqld --initialize --user=mysqlbin/mysqld: error while loading shared libraries: libnuma.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directoryWhen this happens, you have to install the missing libraries manually or with your system's package manager before retrying the data directory initialization.
If you want the server to be able to deploy with automatic support for secure connections, use the mysql_ssl_rsa_setup utility to create default SSL and RSA files:
shell>
bin/mysql_ssl_rsa_setupFor more information, see Section 4.4.3, “mysql_ssl_rsa_setup — Create SSL/RSA Files”.
If the plugin directory (the directory named by the
plugin_dirsystem variable) is writable by the server, it may be possible for a user to write executable code to a file in the directory usingSELECT ... INTO DUMPFILE. This can be prevented by making the plugin directory read only to the server or by setting thesecure_file_privsystem variable at server startup to a directory whereSELECTwrites can be performed safely. (For example, set it to themysql-filesdirectory created earlier.)To specify options that the MySQL server should use at startup, put them in a
/etc/my.cnfor/etc/mysql/my.cnffile. You can use such a file to set, for example, thesecure_file_privsystem variable. See Section 5.1.2, “Server Configuration Defaults”. If you do not do this, the server starts with its default settings.If you want MySQL to start automatically when you boot your machine, see Section 2.9.5, “Starting and Stopping MySQL Automatically”.
Data directory initialization creates time zone tables in the
mysql database but does not populate them. To
do so, use the instructions in
Section 5.1.12, “MySQL Server Time Zone Support”.
This section describes how to initialize the data directory using mysqld, the MySQL server.
In MySQL 8.0, the default authentication plugin has changed
from mysql_native_password to
caching_sha2_password, and the
'root'@'localhost' administrative account
uses caching_sha2_password by default. If
you prefer that the root account use the
previous default authentication plugin
(mysql_native_password), see
caching_sha2_password and the root Administrative Account.
The following instructions assume that your current location is
the MySQL installation directory, represented here by
BASEDIR:
shell> cd BASEDIR
To initialize the data directory, invoke
mysqld with the
--initialize or
--initialize-insecure option,
depending on whether you want the server to generate a random
initial password for the 'root'@'localhost'
account.
On Windows, use one of these commands:
C:\>bin\mysqld --initializeC:\>bin\mysqld --initialize-insecure
On Unix and Unix-like systems, it is important to make sure that
the database directories and files are owned by the
mysql login account so that the server has
read and write access to them when you run it later. To ensure
this, start mysqld from the system
root account and include the
--user option as shown here:
shell>bin/mysqld --initialize --user=mysqlshell>bin/mysqld --initialize-insecure --user=mysql
Otherwise, execute the program while logged in as
mysql, in which case you can omit the
--user option from the command.
Regardless of platform, use
--initialize for “secure by
default” installation (that is, including generation of a
random initial root password). In this case,
the password is marked as expired and you will need to choose a
new one. With the
--initialize-insecure option, no
root password is generated; it is assumed
that you will assign a password to the account in timely fashion
before putting the server into production use.
It might be necessary to specify other options such as
--basedir or
--datadir if
mysqld cannot identify the correct locations
for the installation directory or data directory. For example
(enter the command on one line):
shell>bin/mysqld --initialize --user=mysql--basedir=/opt/mysql/mysql--datadir=/opt/mysql/mysql/data
Alternatively, put the relevant option settings in an option
file and pass the name of that file to
mysqld. For Unix and Unix-like systems,
suppose that the option file name is
/opt/mysql/mysql/etc/my.cnf. Put these
lines in the file:
[mysqld] basedir=/opt/mysql/mysql datadir=/opt/mysql/mysql/data
Then invoke mysqld as follows (enter the
command on a single line with the
--defaults-file option first):
shell>bin/mysqld --defaults-file=/opt/mysql/mysql/etc/my.cnf--initialize --user=mysql
On Windows, suppose that C:\my.ini contains
these lines:
[mysqld] basedir=C:\\Program Files\\MySQL\\MySQL Server 8.0 datadir=D:\\MySQLdata
Then invoke mysqld as follows (the
--defaults-file option must be
first):
C:\> bin/mysqld --defaults-file=C:\my.ini --initialize
When invoked with the
--initialize or
--initialize-insecure option,
mysqld performs the following initialization
sequence.
The server writes any messages to its standard error output. This may be redirected to the error log, so look there if you do not see the messages on your screen. For information about the error log, including where it is located, see Section 5.4.2, “The Error Log”.
On Windows, use the --console
option to direct messages to the console.
The server checks for the existence of the data directory as follows:
If no data directory exists, the server creates it.
If a data directory exists but is not empty (that is, it contains files or subdirectories), the server exits after producing an error message:
[ERROR] --initialize specified but the data directory exists. Aborting.
In this case, remove or rename the data directory and try again.
An existing data directory is permitted to be nonempty if every entry has a name that begins with a period (
.).
Within the data directory, the server creates the
mysqlsystem database and its tables, including the grant tables, server-side help tables, and time zone tables. For a complete listing and description of the grant tables, see Section 6.2, “The MySQL Access Privilege System”.The server initializes the system tablespace and related data structures needed to manage
InnoDBtables.NoteAfter mysqld sets up the
InnoDBsystem tablespace, changes to some tablespace characteristics require setting up a whole new instance. This includes the file name of the first file in the system tablespace and the number of undo logs. If you do not want to use the default values, make sure that the settings for theinnodb_data_file_pathandinnodb_log_file_sizeconfiguration parameters are in place in the MySQL configuration file before running mysqld. Also make sure to specify as necessary other parameters that affect the creation and location ofInnoDBfiles, such asinnodb_data_home_dirandinnodb_log_group_home_dir.If those options are in your configuration file but that file is not in a location that MySQL reads by default, specify the file location using the
--defaults-extra-fileoption when you run mysqld.The server creates a
'root'@'localhost'superuser account and other reserved accounts (see Section 6.3.5, “Reserved User Accounts”). Some reserved accounts are locked and cannot be used by clients, but'root'@'localhost'is intended for administrative use and you should assign it a password.The server's action with respect to a password for the
'root'@'localhost'account depends on how you invoke it:With
--initializebut not--initialize-insecure, the server generates a random password, marks it as expired, and writes a message displaying the password:[Warning] A temporary password is generated for root@localhost: iTag*AfrH5ej
With
--initialize-insecure, (either with or without--initializebecause--initialize-insecureimplies--initialize), the server does not generate a password or mark it expired, and writes a warning message:Warning] root@localhost is created with an empty password ! Please consider switching off the --initialize-insecure option.
See later in this section for instructions on assigning a new
'root'@'localhost'password.The server populates the server-side help tables if content is available (in the
fill_help_tables.sqlfile). The server does not populate the time zone tables; to do so, see Section 5.1.12, “MySQL Server Time Zone Support”.If the
--init-fileoption was given to name a file of SQL statements, the server executes the statements in the file. This option enables you to perform custom bootstrapping sequences.When the server operates in bootstrap mode, some functionality is unavailable that limits the statements permitted in the file. These include statements that relate to account management (such as
CREATE USERorGRANT), replication, and global transaction identifiers.The server exits.
After you initialize the data directory by starting the server
with --initialize or
--initialize-insecure, start the
server normally (that is, without either of those options) and
assign the 'root'@'localhost' account a new
password:
Start the server. For instructions, see Section 2.9.2, “Starting the Server”.
Connect to the server:
If you used
--initializebut not--initialize-insecureto initialize the data directory, connect to the server asrootusing the random password that the server generated during the initialization sequence:shell>
mysql -u root -pEnter password:(enter the random root password here)Look in the server error log if you do not know this password.
If you used
--initialize-insecureto initialize the data directory, connect to the server asrootwithout a password:shell>
mysql -u root --skip-password
After connecting, assign a new
rootpassword:mysql>
ALTER USER 'root'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'new_password';
The data directory initialization sequence performed by the server does not substitute for the actions performed by mysql_secure_installation or mysql_ssl_rsa_setup. See Section 4.4.2, “mysql_secure_installation — Improve MySQL Installation Security”, and Section 4.4.3, “mysql_ssl_rsa_setup — Create SSL/RSA Files”.
This section describes how start the server on Unix and Unix-like systems. (For Windows, see Section 2.3.5.5, “Starting the Server for the First Time”.) For some suggested commands that you can use to test whether the server is accessible and working properly, see Section 2.9.3, “Testing the Server”.
Start the MySQL server like this if your installation includes mysqld_safe:
shell> bin/mysqld_safe --user=mysql &
For Linux systems on which MySQL is installed using RPM packages, server startup and shutdown is managed using systemd rather than mysqld_safe, and mysqld_safe is not installed. See Section 2.5.9, “Managing MySQL Server with systemd”.
Start the server like this if your installation includes systemd support:
shell> systemctl start mysqld
Substitute the appropriate service name if it differs from
mysqld; for example, mysql
on SLES systems.
It is important that the MySQL server be run using an unprivileged
(non-root) login account. To ensure this, run
mysqld_safe as root and
include the --user option as
shown. Otherwise, you should execute the program while logged in
as mysql, in which case you can omit the
--user option from the
command.
For further instructions for running MySQL as an unprivileged user, see Section 6.1.5, “How to Run MySQL as a Normal User”.
If the command fails immediately and prints mysqld
ended, look for information in the error log (which by
default is the
host_name.err
If the server is unable to access the data directory it starts or
read the grant tables in the mysql database, it
writes a message to its error log. Such problems can occur if you
neglected to create the grant tables by initializing the data
directory before proceeding to this step, or if you ran the
command that initializes the data directory without the
--user option. Remove the
data directory and run the command with the
--user option.
If you have other problems starting the server, see Section 2.9.2.1, “Troubleshooting Problems Starting the MySQL Server”. For more information about mysqld_safe, see Section 4.3.2, “mysqld_safe — MySQL Server Startup Script”. For more information about systemd support, see Section 2.5.9, “Managing MySQL Server with systemd”.
This section provides troubleshooting suggestions for problems starting the server. For additional suggestions for Windows systems, see Section 2.3.6, “Troubleshooting a Microsoft Windows MySQL Server Installation”.
If you have problems starting the server, here are some things to try:
Check the error log to see why the server does not start. Log files are located in the data directory (typically
C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 8.0\dataon Windows,/usr/local/mysql/datafor a Unix/Linux binary distribution, and/usr/local/varfor a Unix/Linux source distribution). Look in the data directory for files with names of the formhost_name.errhost_name.loghost_nameis the name of your server host. Then examine the last few lines of these files. Usetailto display them:shell>
tailshell>host_name.errtailhost_name.logSpecify any special options needed by the storage engines you are using. You can create a
my.cnffile and specify startup options for the engines that you plan to use. If you are going to use storage engines that support transactional tables (InnoDB,NDB), be sure that you have them configured the way you want before starting the server. If you are usingInnoDBtables, see Section 15.6, “InnoDB Configuration” for guidelines and Section 15.13, “InnoDB Startup Options and System Variables” for option syntax.Although storage engines use default values for options that you omit, Oracle recommends that you review the available options and specify explicit values for any options whose defaults are not appropriate for your installation.
Make sure that the server knows where to find the data directory. The mysqld server uses this directory as its current directory. This is where it expects to find databases and where it expects to write log files. The server also writes the pid (process ID) file in the data directory.
The default data directory location is hardcoded when the server is compiled. To determine what the default path settings are, invoke mysqld with the
--verboseand--helpoptions. If the data directory is located somewhere else on your system, specify that location with the--datadiroption to mysqld or mysqld_safe, on the command line or in an option file. Otherwise, the server will not work properly. As an alternative to the--datadiroption, you can specify mysqld the location of the base directory under which MySQL is installed with the--basedir, and mysqld looks for thedatadirectory there.To check the effect of specifying path options, invoke mysqld with those options followed by the
--verboseand--helpoptions. For example, if you change location into the directory where mysqld is installed and then run the following command, it shows the effect of starting the server with a base directory of/usr/local:shell>
./mysqld --basedir=/usr/local --verbose --helpYou can specify other options such as
--datadiras well, but--verboseand--helpmust be the last options.Once you determine the path settings you want, start the server without
--verboseand--help.If mysqld is currently running, you can find out what path settings it is using by executing this command:
shell>
mysqladmin variablesOr:
shell>
mysqladmin -hhost_namevariableshost_nameis the name of the MySQL server host.Make sure that the server can access the data directory. The ownership and permissions of the data directory and its contents must allow the server to read and modify them.
If you get
Errcode 13(which meansPermission denied) when starting mysqld, this means that the privileges of the data directory or its contents do not permit server access. In this case, you change the permissions for the involved files and directories so that the server has the right to use them. You can also start the server asroot, but this raises security issues and should be avoided.Change location into the data directory and check the ownership of the data directory and its contents to make sure the server has access. For example, if the data directory is
/usr/local/mysql/var, use this command:shell>
ls -la /usr/local/mysql/varIf the data directory or its files or subdirectories are not owned by the login account that you use for running the server, change their ownership to that account. If the account is named
mysql, use these commands:shell>
chown -R mysql /usr/local/mysql/varshell>chgrp -R mysql /usr/local/mysql/varEven with correct ownership, MySQL might fail to start up if there is other security software running on your system that manages application access to various parts of the file system. In this case, reconfigure that software to enable mysqld to access the directories it uses during normal operation.
Verify that the network interfaces the server wants to use are available.
If either of the following errors occur, it means that some other program (perhaps another mysqld server) is using the TCP/IP port or Unix socket file that mysqld is trying to use:
Can't start server: Bind on TCP/IP port: Address already in use Can't start server: Bind on unix socket...
Use ps to determine whether you have another mysqld server running. If so, shut down the server before starting mysqld again. (If another server is running, and you really want to run multiple servers, you can find information about how to do so in Section 5.7, “Running Multiple MySQL Instances on One Machine”.)
If no other server is running, execute the command
telnet. (The default MySQL port number is 3306.) Then press Enter a couple of times. If you do not get an error message likeyour_host_nametcp_ip_port_numbertelnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused, some other program is using the TCP/IP port that mysqld is trying to use. Track down what program this is and disable it, or tell mysqld to listen to a different port with the--portoption. In this case, specify the same non-default port number for client programs when connecting to the server using TCP/IP.Another reason the port might be inaccessible is that you have a firewall running that blocks connections to it. If so, modify the firewall settings to permit access to the port.
If the server starts but you cannot connect to it, make sure that you have an entry in
/etc/hoststhat looks like this:127.0.0.1 localhost
If you cannot get mysqld to start, try to make a trace file to find the problem by using the
--debugoption. See Section 28.5.3, “The DBUG Package”.
After the data directory is initialized and you have started the
server, perform some simple tests to make sure that it works
satisfactorily. This section assumes that your current location is
the MySQL installation directory and that it has a
bin subdirectory containing the MySQL
programs used here. If that is not true, adjust the command path
names accordingly.
Alternatively, add the bin directory to your
PATH environment variable setting. That enables
your shell (command interpreter) to find MySQL programs properly,
so that you can run a program by typing only its name, not its
path name. See Section 4.2.10, “Setting Environment Variables”.
Use mysqladmin to verify that the server is running. The following commands provide simple tests to check whether the server is up and responding to connections:
shell>bin/mysqladmin versionshell>bin/mysqladmin variables
If you cannot connect to the server, specify a -u
root option to connect as root. If you
have assigned a password for the root account
already, you'll also need to specify -p on the
command line and enter the password when prompted. For example:
shell>bin/mysqladmin -u root -p versionEnter password:(enter root password here)
The output from mysqladmin version varies slightly depending on your platform and version of MySQL, but should be similar to that shown here:
shell> bin/mysqladmin version
mysqladmin Ver 14.12 Distrib 8.0.13, for pc-linux-gnu on i686

To see what else you can do with mysqladmin,
invoke it with the --help
option.
Verify that you can shut down the server (include a
-p option if the root account
has a password already):
shell> bin/mysqladmin -u root shutdown
Verify that you can start the server again. Do this by using mysqld_safe or by invoking mysqld directly. For example:
shell> bin/mysqld_safe --user=mysql &
If mysqld_safe fails, see Section 2.9.2.1, “Troubleshooting Problems Starting the MySQL Server”.
Run some simple tests to verify that you can retrieve information from the server. The output should be similar to that shown here.
Use mysqlshow to see what databases exist:
shell> bin/mysqlshow
+--------------------+
| Databases |
+--------------------+
| information_schema |
| mysql |
| performance_schema |
| sys |
+--------------------+
The list of installed databases may vary, but will always include
the minimum of mysql and
information_schema.
If you specify a database name, mysqlshow displays a list of the tables within the database:
shell> bin/mysqlshow mysql
Database: mysql

| root | localhost | caching_sha2_password |
+------+-----------+-----------------------+
At this point, your server is running and you can access it. To tighten security if you have not yet assigned a password to the initial account, follow the instructions in Section 2.9.4, “Securing the Initial MySQL Account”.
For more information about mysql, mysqladmin, and mysqlshow, see Section 4.5.1, “mysql — The MySQL Command-Line Tool”, Section 4.5.2, “mysqladmin — Client for Administering a MySQL Server”, and Section 4.5.8, “mysqlshow — Display Database, Table, and Column Information”.
The MySQL installation process involves initializing the data
directory, including the mysql database
containing the grant tables that define MySQL accounts. For
details, see Section 2.9, “Postinstallation Setup and Testing”.
This section describes how to assign a password to the initial
root account created during the MySQL
installation procedure, if you have not already done so.
On Windows, you can also perform the process described in this section during installation with MySQL Installer (see Section 2.3.3, “MySQL Installer for Windows”). On all platforms, the MySQL distribution includes mysql_secure_installation, a command-line utility that automates much of the process of securing a MySQL installation. MySQL Workbench is available on all platforms, and also offers the ability to manage user accounts (see Chapter 30, MySQL Workbench ).
A password may already be assigned to the initial account under these circumstances:
On Windows, installations performed using MySQL Installer give you the option of assigning a password.
Installation using the macOS installer generates an initial random password, which the installer displays to the user in a dialog box.
Installation using RPM packages generates an initial random password, which is written to the server error log.
Installations using Debian packages give you the option of assigning a password.
For data directory initialization performed manually using mysqld --initialize, mysqld generates an initial random password, marks it expired, and writes it to the server error log. For details, see Section 2.9.1.1, “Initializing the Data Directory Manually Using mysqld”.
The mysql.user grant table defines the initial
MySQL user account and its access privileges. Installation of
MySQL creates only a 'root'@'localhost'
superuser account that has all privileges and can do anything. If
the root account has an empty password, your
MySQL installation is unprotected: Anyone can connect to the MySQL
server as root without a
password and be granted all privileges.
The 'root'@'localhost' account also has a row
in the mysql.proxies_priv table that enables
granting the PROXY privilege for
''@'', that is, for all users and all hosts.
This enables root to set up proxy users, as
well as to delegate to other accounts the authority to set up
proxy users. See Section 6.3.11, “Proxy Users”.
To assign a password for the initial MySQL root
account, use the following procedure. Replace
new_password in the examples with the
password that you want to use.
Start the server if it is not running. For instructions, see Section 2.9.2, “Starting the Server”.
The initial root account may or may not have a
password. Choose whichever of the following procedures applies:
If the
rootaccount exists with an initial random password that has been expired, connect to the server asrootusing that password, then choose a new password. This is the case if the data directory was initialized using mysqld --initialize, either manually or using an installer that does not give you the option of specifying a password during the install operation. Because the password exists, you must use it to connect to the server. But because the password is expired, you cannot use the account for any purpose other than to choose a new password, until you do choose one.If you do not know the initial random password, look in the server error log.
Connect to the server as
rootusing the password:shell>
mysql -u root -pEnter password:(enter the random root password here)Choose a new password to replace the random password:
mysql>
ALTER USER 'root'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'new_password';
If the
rootaccount exists but has no password, connect to the server asrootusing no password, then assign a password. This is the case if you initialized the data directory using mysqld --initialize-insecure.Connect to the server as
rootusing no password:shell>
mysql -u root --skip-passwordAssign a password:
mysql>
ALTER USER 'root'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'new_password';
After assigning the root account a password,
you must supply that password whenever you connect to the server
using the account. For example, to connect to the server using the
mysql client, use this command:
shell>mysql -u root -pEnter password:(enter root password here)
To shut down the server with mysqladmin, use this command:
shell>mysqladmin -u root -p shutdownEnter password:(enter root password here)
For additional information about setting passwords, see
Section 6.3.7, “Assigning Account Passwords”. If you forget your
root password after setting it, see
Section B.5.3.2, “How to Reset the Root Password”.
To set up additional accounts, see Section 6.3.2, “Adding User Accounts”.
This section discusses methods for starting and stopping the MySQL server.
Generally, you start the mysqld server in one of these ways:
Invoke mysqld directly. This works on any platform.
On Windows, you can set up a MySQL service that runs automatically when Windows starts. See Section 2.3.5.8, “Starting MySQL as a Windows Service”.
On Unix and Unix-like systems, you can invoke mysqld_safe, which tries to determine the proper options for mysqld and then runs it with those options. See Section 4.3.2, “mysqld_safe — MySQL Server Startup Script”.
On Linux systems that support systemd, you can use it to control the server. See Section 2.5.9, “Managing MySQL Server with systemd”.
On systems that use System V-style run directories (that is,
/etc/init.dand run-level specific directories), invoke mysql.server. This script is used primarily at system startup and shutdown. It usually is installed under the namemysql. The mysql.server script starts the server by invoking mysqld_safe. See Section 4.3.3, “mysql.server — MySQL Server Startup Script”.On macOS, install a launchd daemon to enable automatic MySQL startup at system startup. The daemon starts the server by invoking mysqld_safe. For details, see Section 2.4.3, “Installing and Using the MySQL Launch Daemon”. A MySQL Preference Pane also provides control for starting and stopping MySQL through the System Preferences. See Section 2.4.4, “Installing and Using the MySQL Preference Pane”.
On Solaris, use the service management framework (SMF) system to initiate and control MySQL startup.
systemd, the mysqld_safe and mysql.server scripts, Solaris SMF, and the macOS Startup Item (or MySQL Preference Pane) can be used to start the server manually, or automatically at system startup time. systemd, mysql.server, and the Startup Item also can be used to stop the server.
The following table shows which option groups the server and startup scripts read from option files.
Table 2.14 MySQL Startup Scripts and Supported Server Option Groups
| Script | Option Groups |
|---|---|
| mysqld | [mysqld], [server],
[mysqld- |
| mysqld_safe | [mysqld], [server],
[mysqld_safe] |
| mysql.server | [mysqld], [mysql.server],
[server] |
[mysqld-
means that groups with names like
major_version][mysqld-5.7] and
[mysqld-8.0] are read by servers
having versions 5.7.x, 8.0.x, and so
forth. This feature can be used to specify options that can be
read only by servers within a given release series.
For backward compatibility, mysql.server also
reads the [mysql_server] group and
mysqld_safe also reads the
[safe_mysqld] group. To be current, you should
update your option files to use the
[mysql.server] and
[mysqld_safe] groups instead.
For more information on MySQL configuration files and their structure and contents, see Section 4.2.6, “Using Option Files”.
Upgrading is a common procedure, as you pick up bug fixes within the same MySQL release series or significant features between major MySQL releases. You perform this procedure first on some test systems to make sure everything works smoothly, and then on the production systems.
Downgrading is less common. It is typically performed because of a compatibility or performance issue that occurs on a production system that was not uncovered during initial upgrade verification on test systems.
Downgrade from MySQL 8.0 to MySQL 5.7 (or from a MySQL 8.0 release to a previous MySQL 8.0 release) is not supported. The only supported alternative is to restore a backup taken before upgrading. It is therefore imperative that you backup your data before starting the upgrade process.
This section describes how to upgrade to a new MySQL version.
In-Place Upgrade: Involves shutting down the old MySQL version, replacing the old MySQL binaries or packages with the new ones, restarting MySQL on the existing data directory, and running mysql_upgrade. For the in-place upgrade procedure, see In-Place Upgrade.
Logical Upgrade: Involves exporting SQL from the old MySQL version using a backup or export utility such as mysqldump or mysqlpump, installing the new MySQL version, and applying the SQL to the new MySQL version.
NoteWhen applying SQL extracted from a previous MySQL version to a new MySQL version, you may encounter errors due to incompatibilities introduced by new, changed, deprecated, or removed features and capabilities. Before upgrading from MySQL 5.7 to MySQL 8.0, perform the preliminary checks described in Verifying Upgrade Prerequisites for Your MySQL 5.7 Installation to identify issues. Alternatively. the same checks can be performed using the MySQL Shell
checkForServerUpgradeutility. For more information, see Section 19.5, “MySQL Shell Utilities”. SQL exported from a previous MySQL version may require modification to enable a logical upgrade.If you run MySQL Server on Windows, refer to the upgrade procedure described in Section 2.3.8, “Upgrading MySQL on Windows”.
If your current MySQL installation was installed on an Enterprise Linux platform or Fedora using the MySQL Yum Repository, see Section 2.10.1.3, “Upgrading MySQL with the MySQL Yum Repository”.
If your current MySQL installation was installed on Ubuntu using the MySQL APT repository, see Section 2.10.1.4, “Upgrading MySQL with the MySQL APT Repository”.
Upgrade from MySQL 5.7 to 8.0 is supported. However, upgrade is only supported between General Availability (GA) releases. For MySQL 8.0, it is required that you upgrade from a MySQL 5.7 GA release (5.7.9 or higher). Upgrades from non-GA releases of MySQL 5.7 are not supported.
Upgrading to the latest release is recommended before upgrading to the next version. For example, upgrade to the latest MySQL 5.7 release before upgrading to MySQL 8.0.
Upgrade that skips versions is not supported. For example, upgrading directly from MySQL 5.6 to 8.0 is not supported.
Once a release series reaches General Availability (GA) status, upgrade within a release series from one GA version to another GA version is supported. For example, upgrading from MySQL 8.0.
xto 8.0.yis supported. (Upgrade involving development-status releases is not supported.) Skipping a release is also supported. For example, upgrading from MySQL 8.0.xto 8.0.zis supported. MySQL 8.0.11 is the first GA status release within the MySQL 8.0 release series.
Before upgrading, review the following information and perform any recommended steps:
Protect your data by creating a backup of your current databases and log files. The backup should include the
mysqlsystem database, which contains the MySQL data dictionary tables and system tables. See Section 7.2, “Database Backup Methods”.ImportantDowngrade from MySQL 8.0 to MySQL 5.7 (or from a MySQL 8.0 release to a previous MySQL 8.0 release) is not supported. The only supported alternative is to restore a backup taken before upgrading. It is therefore imperative that you backup your data before starting the upgrade process.
MySQL Server 8.0 incorporates a global data dictionary containing information about database objects in transactional tables. In previous MySQL series, dictionary data was stored in metadata files and nontransactional system tables. Upgrading from MySQL 5.7 to MySQL 8.0 upgrades the data directory from the file-based structure to the data-dictionary structure.
After you upgrade, a data dictionary-enabled server entails some general operational differences; see Section 14.7, “Data Dictionary Usage Differences”.
Review Section 2.10.1.2, “Changes Affecting Upgrades to MySQL 8.0” to identify changes in MySQL 8.0 that may affect your MySQL installation and applications. Some changes may require action before or after upgrading.
Review the Release Notes which provide information about features that are new in the MySQL 8.0 or differ from those found in earlier MySQL releases. Some of these changes may result in incompatibilities.
Review Features Removed in MySQL 8.0 for MySQL server features that have been removed in MySQL 8.0. An upgrade requires changes with respect to those features if you use any of them.
Review Section 1.5, “Server and Status Variables and Options Added, Deprecated, or Removed in MySQL 8.0” for MySQL server variables and options that have been added, deprecated, or removed in MySQL 8.0. If you use any of these, an upgrade requires configuration changes.
If you use replication, review Section 17.4.3, “Upgrading a Replication Setup”.
If your MySQL installation contains a large amount of data that might take a long time to convert after an in-place upgrade, you might find it useful to create a “dummy” database instance for assessing what conversions might be needed and the work involved to perform them. Make a copy of your MySQL instance that contains a full copy of the
mysqldatabase, plus all other databases without data. Run your upgrade procedure on this dummy instance to see what actions might be needed so that you can better evaluate the work involved when performing actual data conversion on your original database instance.Rebuilding and reinstalling MySQL language interfaces is recommended whenever you install or upgrade to a new release of MySQL. This applies to MySQL interfaces such as PHP
mysqlextensions, the PerlDBD::mysqlmodule, and the PythonMySQLdbmodule.
In the instructions that follow, MySQL commands that must be
run using a MySQL account with administrative privileges
include -u on the
command line to specify the MySQL rootroot
user. Commands that require a password for
root also include a -p
option. Because -p is followed by no option
value, such commands prompt for the password. Type the
password when prompted and press Enter.
SQL statements can be executed using the
mysql command-line client (connect as
root to ensure that you have the
necessary privileges).
Before upgrading to MySQL 8.0, it is necessary to ensure the upgrade readiness of your installation by using your MySQL 5.7 server to perform several preliminary checks. The upgrade process may fail otherwise.
The same checks can be performed using the MySQL Shell
checkForServerUpgrade utility. For more
information, see Section 19.5, “MySQL Shell Utilities”.
Preliminary checks:
There must be no tables that use obsolete data types, obsolete functions, orphan
.frmfiles,InnoDBtables that use nonnative partitioning, or triggers that have a missing or empty definer or an invalid creation context (indicated by thecharacter_set_client,collation_connection,Database Collationattributes displayed bySHOW TRIGGERSor theINFORMATION_SCHEMATRIGGERStable).To identify tables and triggers that fail these requirements, execute this command:
mysqlcheck -u root -p --all-databases --check-upgrade
If mysqlcheck reports any errors, correct the issues.
There must be no partitioned tables that use a storage engine that does not have native partitioning support. To identify such tables, execute this query:
SELECT TABLE_SCHEMA, TABLE_NAME FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES WHERE ENGINE NOT IN ('innodb', 'ndbcluster') AND CREATE_OPTIONS LIKE '%partitioned%';Any table reported by the query must be altered to use
InnoDBor be made nonpartitioned. To change a table storage engine toInnoDB, execute this statement:ALTER TABLE
table_nameENGINE = INNODB;For information about converting
MyISAMtables toInnoDB, see Section 15.8.1.4, “Converting Tables from MyISAM to InnoDB”.To make a partitioned table nonpartitioned, execute this statement:
ALTER TABLE
table_nameREMOVE PARTITIONING;There must be no tables in the MySQL 5.7
mysqlsystem database that have the same name as a table used by the MySQL 8.0 data dictionary. To identify tables with those names, execute this query:SELECT TABLE_SCHEMA, TABLE_NAME FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES WHERE LOWER(TABLE_SCHEMA) = 'mysql' and LOWER(TABLE_NAME) IN ( 'catalogs', 'character_sets', 'collations', 'column_statistics', 'column_type_elements', 'columns', 'dd_properties', 'events', 'foreign_key_column_usage', 'foreign_keys', 'index_column_usage', 'index_partitions', 'index_stats', 'indexes', 'parameter_type_elements', 'parameters', 'resource_groups', 'routines', 'schemata', 'st_spatial_reference_systems', 'table_partition_values', 'table_partitions', 'table_stats', 'tables', 'tablespace_files', 'tablespaces', 'triggers', 'view_routine_usage', 'view_table_usage' );
Any tables reported by the query must be renamed (use
RENAME TABLE). This may also entail changes to applications that use the affected tables.There must be no tables that have foreign key constraint names longer than 64 characters. To identify tables with too-long constraint names, execute this query:
SELECT TABLE_SCHEMA, TABLE_NAME FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES WHERE TABLE_NAME IN (SELECT LEFT(SUBSTR(ID,INSTR(ID,'/')+1), INSTR(SUBSTR(ID,INSTR(ID,'/')+1),'_ibfk_')-1) FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.INNODB_SYS_FOREIGN WHERE LENGTH(SUBSTR(ID,INSTR(ID,'/')+1))>64);Any tables reported by the query must be altered to have constraint names no longer than 64 characters (use
ALTER TABLE).Your MySQL 5.7 installation must not use features that are not supported by MySQL 8.0. Any changes here are necessarily installation specific, but the following examples illustrate the kind of things to look for:
Tables that use a storage engine not supported in MySQL 8.0 must be altered to use a supported engine. For example, MySQL 8.0 does not yet support MySQL Cluster, so
NDBtables must be altered to use a different storage engine.Some server startup options and system variables have been removed in MySQL 8.0. See Features Removed in MySQL 8.0, and Section 1.5, “Server and Status Variables and Options Added, Deprecated, or Removed in MySQL 8.0”. If you use any of these, an upgrade requires configuration changes.
Example: Because the data dictionary provides information about database objects, the server no longer checks directory names in the data directory to find databases. Consequently, the
--ignore-db-diroption is extraneous and has been removed. To handle this, remove any instances of--ignore-db-dirfrom your startup configuration. In addition, remove or move the named data directory subdirectories before upgrading to MySQL 8.0. (Alternatively, let the 8.0 server add those directories to the data dictionary as databases, then remove each of those databases usingDROP DATABASE.)
If you are upgrading an installation originally produced by installing multiple RPM packages, upgrade all the packages, not just some. For example, if you previously installed the server and client RPMs, do not upgrade just the server RPM.
For some Linux platforms, MySQL installation from RPM or Debian packages includes systemd support for managing MySQL server startup and shutdown. On these platforms, mysqld_safe is not installed. In such cases, use systemd for server startup and shutdown instead of the methods used in the following instructions. See Section 2.5.9, “Managing MySQL Server with systemd”.
To perform an in-place upgrade:
Review the information in Before You Begin.
Ensure the upgrade readiness of your installation by completing the preliminary checks in Verifying Upgrade Prerequisites for Your MySQL 5.7 Installation.
If you use XA transactions with
InnoDB, runXA RECOVERbefore upgrading to check for uncommitted XA transactions. If results are returned, either commit or rollback the XA transactions by issuing anXA COMMITorXA ROLLBACKstatement.With your MySQL 5.7 server, if there are encrypted
InnoDBtablespaces, rotate the keyring master key by executing this statement:ALTER INSTANCE ROTATE INNODB MASTER KEY;
If you normally run your MySQL 5.7 server configured with
innodb_fast_shutdownset to2(cold shutdown), configure it to perform a fast or slow shutdown by executing either of these statements:SET GLOBAL innodb_fast_shutdown = 1; -- fast shutdown SET GLOBAL innodb_fast_shutdown = 0; -- slow shutdown
With a fast or slow shutdown,
InnoDBleaves its undo logs and data files in a state that can be dealt with in case of file format differences between releases.Shut down the old MySQL server. For example:
mysqladmin -u root -p shutdown
Upgrade the MySQL binary installation or packages. If upgrading a binary installation, unpack the new MySQL binary distribution package. See Obtain and Unpack the Distribution. For package-based installations, replace the old packages with the new ones.
NoteFor supported Linux distributions, the preferred method for replacing the MySQL packages is to use the MySQL software repositories; see Section 2.10.1.3, “Upgrading MySQL with the MySQL Yum Repository”, Section 2.10.1.4, “Upgrading MySQL with the MySQL APT Repository”, or Upgrading MySQL with the MySQL SLES Repository for instructions.
Start the MySQL 8.0 server, using the existing data directory. For example:
mysqld_safe --user=mysql --datadir=
/path/to/existing-datadirIf there are encrypted
InnoDBtablespaces, use the--early-plugin-loadoption to load the keyring plugin.When you start the MySQL 8.0 server, it automatically detects whether data dictionary tables are present. If not, the server creates them in the data directory, populates them with metadata, and then proceeds with its normal startup sequence. During this process, the server upgrades metadata for all database objects, including databases, tablespaces, system and user tables, views, and stored programs (stored procedures and functions, triggers, Event Scheduler events). The server also removes files that previously were used for metadata storage. For example, after upgrading, you will notice that your tables no longer have
.frmfiles.If this step succeeds, the server performs a cleanup:
In the data directory, the server creates a directory named
backup_metadata_57and moves into it files nameddb.optand files with a suffix of.frm,.par,.TRG,.TRN, or.isl. (These are files previously used for metadata storage.)Files in the
backup_metadata_57directory retain the original file system hierarchy. For example, ift1.frmwas located in themy_schema1directory under the data directory, the server moves it to thebackup_metadata_57/my_schema1directory.In the
mysqldatabase, the server renames theeventandproctables toevent_backup_57andproc_backup_57.
If this step fails, the server reverts all changes to the data directory. In this case, you should remove all redo log files, start your MySQL 5.7 server on the same data directory, and fix the cause of any errors. Then perform another slow shutdown of the 5.7 server and start the MySQL 8.0 server to try again.
After the MySQL 8.0 server starts successfully, execute mysql_upgrade:
mysql_upgrade -u root -p
mysql_upgrade examines all tables in all databases for incompatibilities with the current version of MySQL. It makes any remaining changes required in the
mysqlsystem database between MySQL 5.7 and MySQL 8.0, so that you can take advantage of new privileges or capabilities. mysql_upgrade also brings the Performance Schema,INFORMATION_SCHEMA, andsysschema objects up to date for MySQL 8.0.Notemysql_upgrade does not upgrade the contents of the help tables. For upgrade instructions, see Section 5.1.13, “Server-Side Help”.
Shut down and restart the MySQL server to ensure that any changes made to the system tables take effect. For example:
mysqladmin -u root -p shutdown mysqld_safe --user=mysql --datadir=
/path/to/existing-datadirThe first time you started the MySQL 8.0 server (in an earlier step), you may have noticed messages written to the error log regarding nonupgraded tables. If mysql_upgrade has been run successfully, there should be no such messages the second time you start the server.
If problems occur, such as that the new mysqld server does not start, verify that you do not have an old
my.cnffile from your previous installation. You can check this with the--print-defaultsoption (for example, mysqld --print-defaults). If this command displays anything other than the program name, you have an activemy.cnffile that affects server or client operation.If, after an upgrade, you experience problems with compiled client programs, such as
Commands out of syncor unexpected core dumps, you probably have used old header or library files when compiling your programs. In this case, check the date for yourmysql.hfile andlibmysqlclient.alibrary to verify that they are from the new MySQL distribution. If not, recompile your programs with the new headers and libraries. Recompilation might also be necessary for programs compiled against the shared client library if the library major version number has changed (for example, fromlibmysqlclient.so.20tolibmysqlclient.so.21).If you have created a user-defined function (UDF) with a given name and upgrade MySQL to a version that implements a new built-in function with the same name, the UDF becomes inaccessible. To correct this, use
DROP FUNCTIONto drop the UDF, and then useCREATE FUNCTIONto re-create the UDF with a different nonconflicting name. The same is true if the new version of MySQL implements a built-in function with the same name as an existing stored function. See Section 9.2.4, “Function Name Parsing and Resolution”, for the rules describing how the server interprets references to different kinds of functions.
Before upgrading to MySQL 8.0, review the changes described in this section to identify upgrade issues that apply to your MySQL installation and applications.
Changes marked as either Known issue or Incompatible change are incompatibilities with earlier versions of MySQL, and may require your attention before you upgrade. Our aim is to avoid these changes, but occasionally they are necessary to correct problems that would be worse than an incompatibility between releases. If any upgrade issue applicable to your installation involves an incompatibility that requires special handling, follow the instructions given in the description.
MySQL Server 8.0 incorporates a global data dictionary containing information about database objects in transactional tables. In previous MySQL series, dictionary data was stored in metadata files and nontransactional system tables. As a result, the upgrade procedure is somewhat different from previous MySQL releases and requires that you verify the upgrade readiness of your installation by checking specific prerequisites. For more information, see Verifying Upgrade Prerequisites for Your MySQL 5.7 Installation. A data dictionary-enabled server entails some general operational differences; see Section 14.7, “Data Dictionary Usage Differences”.
The caching_sha2_password and
sha256_password authentication plugins
provide more secure password encryption than the
mysql_native_password plugin, and
caching_sha2_password provides better
performance than sha256_password. Due to
these superior security and performance characteristics of
caching_sha2_password, it is as of MySQL
8.0.4 the preferred authentication plugin, and is also the
default authentication plugin rather than
mysql_native_password. This change affects
both the server and the libmysqlclient
client library:
For the server, the default value of the
default_authentication_pluginsystem variable changes frommysql_native_passwordtocaching_sha2_password.This change applies only to new accounts created after installing or upgrading to MySQL 8.0.4 or later. For accounts already existing in an upgraded installation, their authentication plugin remains unchanged. Existing users who wish to switch to
caching_sha2_passwordcan do so using theALTER USERstatement:ALTER USER
userIDENTIFIED WITH caching_sha2_password BY 'password';The
libmysqlclientlibrary treatscaching_sha2_passwordas the default authentication plugin rather thanmysql_native_password.
The following sections discuss the implications of the more
prominent role of caching_sha2_password:
caching_sha2_password Compatibility Issues and Solutions
If your MySQL installation must serve pre-8.0 clients and
you encounter compatibility issues after upgrading to MySQL
8.0.4 or later, the simplest way to address those issues and
restore pre-8.0 compatibility is to reconfigure the server
to revert to the previous default authentication plugin
(mysql_native_password). For example, use
these lines in the server option file:
[mysqld] default_authentication_plugin=mysql_native_password
That setting enables pre-8.0 clients to connect to 8.0
servers until such time as the clients and connectors in use
at your installation are upgraded to know about
caching_sha2_password. However, the
setting should be viewed as temporary, not as a long term or
permanent solution, because it causes new accounts created
with the setting in effect to forego the improved
authentication security provided by
caching_sha2_password.
The use of caching_sha2_password offers
more secure password hashing than
mysql_native_password (and consequent
improved client connection authentication). However, it also
has compatibility implications that may affect existing MySQL
installations:
Clients and connectors that have not been updated to know about
caching_sha2_passwordmay have trouble connecting to a MySQL 8.0 server configured withcaching_sha2_passwordas the default authentication plugin, even to use accounts that do not authenticate withcaching_sha2_password. This issue occurs because the server specifies the name of its default authentication plugin to clients. If a client or connector is based on a client/server protocol implementation that does not gracefully handle an unrecognized default authentication plugin, it may fail with an error such as one of these:Authentication plugin 'caching_sha2_password' is not supported
Authentication plugin 'caching_sha2_password' cannot be loaded: dlopen(/usr/local/mysql/lib/plugin/caching_sha2_password.so, 2): image not found
Warning: mysqli_connect(): The server requested authentication method unknown to the client [caching_sha2_password]
For information about writing connectors to gracefully handle requests from the server for unknown default authentication plugins, see Authentication Plugin Connector-Writing Considerations.
Clients that use an account that authenticates with
caching_sha2_passwordmust use either a secure connection (made using TCP using TLS/SSL credentials, a Unix socket file, or shared memory), or an unencrypted connection that supports password exchange using an RSA key pair. This security requirement does not apply tomysql_native_passsword, so the switch tocaching_sha2_passwordmay require additional configuration (see Section 6.5.1.3, “Caching SHA-2 Pluggable Authentication”). However, client connections in MySQL 8.0 prefer use of TLS/SSL by default, so clients that already conform to that preference may need no additional configuration.Clients and connectors that have not been updated to know about
caching_sha2_passwordcannot connect to accounts that authenticate withcaching_sha2_passwordbecause they do not recognize this plugin as valid. (This is a particular instance of how client/server authentication plugin compatibility requirements apply, as discussed at Authentication Plugin Client/Server Compatibility.) To work around this issue, relink clients againstlibmysqlclientfrom MySQL 8.0.4 or higher, or obtain an updated connector that recognizescaching_sha2_password.Because
caching_sha2_passwordis also now the default authentication plugin in thelibmysqlclientclient library, authentication requires an extra round trip in the client/server protocol for connections from MySQL 8.0 clients to accounts that usemysql_native_password(the previous default authentication plugin), unless the client program is invoked with a--default-auth=mysql_native_passwordoption.
The libmysqlclient client library for
pre-8.0 MySQL versions is able to connect to MySQL 8.0 servers
(except for accounts that authenticate with
caching_sha2_password). That means pre-8.0
clients based on libmysqlclient should also
be able to connect. Examples:
Standard MySQL clients such as mysql and mysqladmin are
libmysqlclient-based.The DBD::mysql driver for Perl DBI is
libmysqlclient-based.MySQL Connector/Python has a C Extension module that is
libmysqlclient-based. To use it, include theuse_pure=Falseoption at connect time.
When an existing MySQL 8.0 installation is upgraded to MySQL
8.0.4 or higher, some older
libmysqlclient-based clients may
“automatically” upgrade if they are dynamically
linked, because they use the new client library installed by
the upgrade. For example, if the DBD::mysql driver for Perl
DBI uses dynamic linking, it can use the
libmysqlclient in place after an upgrade to
MySQL 8.0.4 or higher, with this result:
Prior to the upgrade, DBI scripts that use DBD::mysql can connect to a MySQL 8.0 server, except for accounts that authenticate with
caching_sha2_password.After the upgrade, the same scripts become able to use
caching_sha2_passwordaccounts as well.
However, the preceding results occur because
libmysqlclient instances from MySQL 8.0
installations prior to 8.0.4 are binary compatible: They both
use a shared library major version number of 21. For clients
linked to libmysqlclient from MySQL 5.7 or
older, they link to a shared library with a different version
number that is not binary compatible. In this case, the client
must be recompiled against libmysqlclient
from 8.0.4 or higher for full compatibility with MySQL 8.0
servers and caching_sha2_password accounts.
MySQL Connector/J 5.1 through 8.0.8 is able to connect to MySQL 8.0
servers, except for accounts that authenticate with
caching_sha2_password. (Connector/J 8.0.9 or
higher is required to connect to
caching_sha2_password accounts.)
Clients that use an implementation of the client/server
protocol other than libmysqlclient may need
to be upgraded to a newer version that understands the new
authentication plugin. For example, in PHP, MySQL connectivity
usually is based on mysqlnd, which
currently does not know about
caching_sha2_password. Until an updated
version of mysqlnd is available, the way to
enable PHP clients to connect to MySQL 8.0 is to reconfigure
the server to revert to
mysql_native_password as the default
authentication plugin, as previously discussed.
If a client or connector supports an option to explicitly
specify a default authentication plugin, use it to name a
plugin other than caching_sha2_password.
Examples:
Some MySQL clients support a
--default-authoption. (Standard MySQL clients such as mysql and mysqladmin support this option but can successfully connect to 8.0 servers without it. However, other clients may support a similar option. If so, it is worth trying it.)Programs that use the
libmysqlclientC API can call themysql_options()function with theMYSQL_DEFAULT_AUTHoption.MySQL Connector/Python scripts that use the native Python implementation of the client/server protocol can specify the
auth_pluginconnection option. (Alternatively, use the Connector/Python C Extension, which is able to connect to MySQL 8.0 servers without the need forauth_plugin.)
caching_sha2_password-Compatible Clients and Connectors
If a client or connector is available that has been updated to
know about caching_sha2_password, using it
is the best way to ensure compatibility when connecting to a
MySQL 8.0 server configured with
caching_sha2_password as the default
authentication plugin.
These clients and connectors have been upgraded to support
caching_sha2_password:
The
libmysqlclientclient library in MySQL 8.0.4 or higher. Standard MySQL clients such as mysql and mysqladmin arelibmysqlclient-based, so they are compatible as well.MySQL Connector/C++ 1.1.11 or higher or 8.0.7 or higher.
MySQL Connector/J 8.0.9 or higher.
MySQL Connector/Net 8.0.10 or higher (through the classic MySQL protocol).
MySQL Connector/Node.js 8.0.9 or higher.
PHP: the X DevAPI PHP extension (mysql_xdevapi) supports it.
PHP: the PDO_MySQL and ext/mysqli extensions do not. In addition, when used with PHP versions before 7.1.16 and PHP 7.2 before 7.2.4, they fail to connect with default_authentication_plugin=caching_sha2_password even if caching_sha2_password is not used.
caching_sha2_password and the root Administrative Account
For upgrades to MySQL 8.0, the authentication plugin existing
accounts remains unchanged, including the plugin for the
'root'@'localhost' administrative account.
For new MySQL 8.0 installations, when you initialize the data
directory (using the instructions at
Section 2.9.1.1, “Initializing the Data Directory Manually Using mysqld”), the
'root'@'localhost' account is created, and
that account uses caching_sha2_password by
default. To connect to the server following data directory
initialization, you must therefore use a client or connector
that supports caching_sha2_password. If you
can do this but prefer that the root
account use mysql_native_password after
installation, install MySQL and initialize the data directory
as you normally would. Then connect to the server as
root and use ALTER
USER as follows to change the account authentication
plugin and password:
ALTER USER 'root'@'localhost'
IDENTIFIED WITH mysql_native_password
BY 'password';
If the client or connector that you use does not yet support
caching_sha2_password, you can use a
modified data directory-initialization procedure that
associates the root account with
mysql_native_password as soon as the
account is created. To do so, use either of these techniques:
Supply a
--default-authentication-plugin=mysql_native_passwordoption along with--initializeor--initialize-insecure.Set
default_authentication_plugintomysql_native_passwordin an option file, and name that option file using a--defaults-fileoption along with--initializeor--initialize-insecure. (In this case, if you continue to use that option file for subsequent server startups, new accounts will be created withmysql_native_passwordrather thancaching_sha2_passwordunless you remove thedefault_authentication_pluginsetting from the option file.)
caching_sha2_password and Replication
In replication scenarios for which all servers have been
upgraded to MySQL 8.0.4 or higher, slave/replica connections
to master/primary servers can use accounts that authenticate
with caching_sha2_password. For such
connections, the same requirement applies as for other clients
that use accounts that authenticate with
caching_sha2_password: Use a secure
connection or RSA-based password exchange.
To connect to a caching_sha2_password
account for master/slave replication:
For MySQL built using OpenSSL, use any of the following
CHANGE MASTER TOoptions:MASTER_SSL = 1 GET_MASTER_PUBLIC_KEY = 1 MASTER_PUBLIC_KEY_PATH='
path to RSA public key file'For MySQL built using wolfSSL, use
MASTER_SSL=1withCHANGE MASTER TO.Alternatively, you can use the RSA public key-related options if the required keys are supplied at server startup.
To connect to a caching_sha2_password
account for Group Replication:
For MySQL built using OpenSSL, set any of the following system variables:
SET GLOBAL group_replication_recovery_use_ssl = ON; SET GLOBAL group_replication_recovery_get_public_key = 1; SET GLOBAL group_replication_recovery_public_key_path = '
path to RSA public key file';For MySQL built using wolfSSL, set this system variable:
SET GLOBAL group_replication_recovery_use_ssl = ON;
Alternatively, you can use the RSA public key-related options if the required keys are supplied at server startup.
Incompatible change: A MySQL storage engine is now responsible for providing its own partitioning handler, and the MySQL server no longer provides generic partitioning support.
InnoDBis the only storage engine providing a native partitioning handler that is supported in MySQL 8.0. (TheNDBstorage engine also provides native partitioning support, but it is not yet supported in MySQL 8.0.) A partitioned table using any other storage engine must be altered—either to convert it toInnoDB, or to remove its partitioning—before upgrading the server, else it cannot be used afterwards.For information about converting
MyISAMtables toInnoDB, see Section 15.8.1.4, “Converting Tables from MyISAM to InnoDB”.A table creation statement that would result in a partitioned table using a storage engine without such support fails with an error (ER_CHECK_NOT_IMPLEMENTED) in MySQL 8.0. If you import databases from a dump file created in MySQL 5.7 (or earlier) using mysqldump into a MySQL 8.0 server, you must make sure that any statements creating partitioned tables do not also specify an unsupported storage engine, either by removing any references to partitioning, or by specifying the storage engine as
InnoDBor allowing it to be set asInnoDBby default.NoteThe procedure given at Verifying Upgrade Prerequisites for Your MySQL 5.7 Installation, describes how to identify partitioned tables that must be altered before upgrading to MySQL 8.0.
See Section 22.6.2, “Partitioning Limitations Relating to Storage Engines”, for further information.
Incompatible change: Several server error codes are not used and have been removed (for a list, see Features Removed in MySQL 8.0). Applications that test specifically for any of them should be updated.
Important change: The default character set has changed from
latin1toutf8mb4. These system variables are affected:The default value of the
character_set_serverandcharacter_set_databasesystem variables has changed fromlatin1toutf8mb4.The default value of the
collation_serverandcollation_databasesystem variables has changed fromlatin1_swedish_citoutf8mb4_0900_ai_ci.
As a result, the default character set and collation for new objects differ from previously unless an explicit character set and collation are specified. This includes databases and objects within them, such as tables, views, and stored programs. Assuming that the previous defaults were used, one way to preserve them is to start the server with these lines in the
my.cnffile:[mysqld] character_set_server=latin1 collation_server=latin1_swedish_ci
In a replicated setting, when upgrading from MySQL 5.7 to 8.0, it is advisable to change the default character set back to the character set used in MySQL 5.7 before upgrading. After the upgrade is completed, the default character set can be changed to
utf8mb4.Incompatible change: As of MySQL 8.0.11, it is prohibited to start the server with a
lower_case_table_namessetting that is different from the setting used when the server was initialized. The restriction is necessary because collations used by various data dictionary table fields are based on the setting defined when the server is initialized, and restarting the server with a different setting would introduce inconsistencies with respect to how identifiers are ordered and compared.
In MySQL 8.0.11, several deprecated features related to account management have been removed, such as use of the
GRANTstatement to modify nonprivilege characteristics of user accounts, theNO_AUTO_CREATE_USERSQL mode, thePASSWORD()function, and theold_passwordssystem variable.Replication from MySQL 5.7 to 8.0 of statements that refer to these removed features can cause replication failure. Applications that use any of the removed features should be revised to avoid them and use alternatives when possible, as described in Features Removed in MySQL 8.0.
In MySQL 8.0.11, these deprecated compatibility SQL modes were removed:
DB2,MAXDB,MSSQL,MYSQL323,MYSQL40,ORACLE,POSTGRESQL,NO_FIELD_OPTIONS,NO_KEY_OPTIONS,NO_TABLE_OPTIONS. They can no longer be assigned to thesql_modesystem variable or used as permitted values for the mysqldump--compatibleoption.Removal of
MAXDBmeans that theTIMESTAMPdata type forCREATE TABLEorALTER TABLEis no longer treated asDATETIME.Replication from MySQL 5.7 to 8.0 of statements that refer to the removed SQL modes can cause replication failure. This includes replication of
CREATEstatements for stored programs (stored procedures and functions, triggers, and events) that are executed while the currentsql_modevalue includes any of the removed modes. Applications that use any of the removed modes should be revised to avoid them.As of MySQL 8.0.3, spatial data types permit an
SRIDattribute, to explicitly indicate the spatial reference system (SRS) for values stored in the column. See Section 11.5.1, “Spatial Data Types”.A spatial column with an explicit
SRIDattribute is SRID-restricted: The column takes only values with that ID, andSPATIALindexes on the column become subject to use by the optimizer. The optimizer ignoresSPATIALindexes on spatial columns with noSRIDattribute. See Section 8.3.3, “SPATIAL Index Optimization”. If you wish the optimizer to considerSPATIALindexes on spatial columns that are not SRID-restricted, each such column should be modified:Verify that all values within the column have the same SRID. To determine the SRIDs contained in a geometry column
col_name, use the following query:SELECT DISTINCT ST_SRID(
col_name) FROMtbl_name;If the query returns more than one row, the column contains a mix of SRIDs. In that case, modify its contents so all values have the same SRID.
Redefine the column to have an explicit
SRIDattribute.Recreate the
SPATIALindex.
Several spatial functions were removed in MySQL 8.0.0 due to a spatial function namespace change that implemented an
ST_prefix for functions that perform an exact operation, or anMBRprefix for functions that perform an operation based on minimum bounding rectangles. The use of removed spatial functions in generated column definitions could cause an upgrade failure. Before upgrading, run mysqlcheck --check-upgrade for removed spatial functions and replace any that you find with theirST_orMBRnamed replacements. For a list of removed spatial functions, refer to Features Removed in MySQL 8.0.The
BACKUP_ADMINprivilege is automatically granted to users with theRELOADprivilege when performing an in-place upgrade to MySQL 8.0.3 or later.
INFORMATION_SCHEMAviews based onInnoDBsystem tables were replaced by internal system views on data dictionary tables. AffectedInnoDBINFORMATION_SCHEMAviews were renamed:Table 2.15 Renamed InnoDB Information Schema Views
Old Name New Name INNODB_SYS_COLUMNSINNODB_COLUMNSINNODB_SYS_DATAFILESINNODB_DATAFILESINNODB_SYS_FIELDSINNODB_FIELDSINNODB_SYS_FOREIGNINNODB_FOREIGNINNODB_SYS_FOREIGN_COLSINNODB_FOREIGN_COLSINNODB_SYS_INDEXESINNODB_INDEXESINNODB_SYS_TABLESINNODB_TABLESINNODB_SYS_TABLESPACESINNODB_TABLESPACESINNODB_SYS_TABLESTATSINNODB_TABLESTATSINNODB_SYS_VIRTUALINNODB_VIRTUALAfter upgrading to MySQL 8.0.3 or later, update any scripts that reference previous
InnoDBINFORMATION_SCHEMAview names.The zlib library version bundled with MySQL was raised from version 1.2.3 to version 1.2.11.
The zlib
compressBound()function in zlib 1.2.11 returns a slightly higher estimate of the buffer size required to compress a given length of bytes than it did in zlib version 1.2.3. ThecompressBound()function is called byInnoDBfunctions that determine the maximum row size permitted when creating compressedInnoDBtables or inserting rows into compressedInnoDBtables. As a result,CREATE TABLE ... ROW_FORMAT=COMPRESSEDorINSERToperations with row sizes very close to the maximum row size that were successful in earlier releases could now fail.If you have compressed
InnoDBtables with large rows, it is recommended that you test compressed tableCREATE TABLEstatements on a MySQL 8.0 test instance prior to upgrading.With the introduction of the
--innodb-directoriesfeature, the location of file-per-table and general tablespace files created with an absolute path or in a location outside of the data directory should be added to theinnodb_directoriesargument value. Otherwise,InnoDBis not able to locate these files during recovery. To view tablespace file locations, query theINFORMATION_SCHEMA.FILEStable:SELECT TABLESPACE_NAME, FILE_NAME FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.FILES \G
Some keywords may be reserved in MySQL 8.0 that were not reserved in MySQL 5.7. See Section 9.3, “Keywords and Reserved Words”. This can cause words previously used as identifiers to become illegal. To fix affected statements, use identifier quoting. See Section 9.2, “Schema Object Names”.
After upgrading, it is recommended that you test optimizer hints specified in application code to ensure that the hints are still required to achieve the desired optimization strategy. Optimizer enhancements can sometimes render certain optimizer hints unnecessary. In some cases, an unnecessary optimizer hint may even be counterproductive.
For supported Yum-based platforms (see Section 2.5.1, “Installing MySQL on Linux Using the MySQL Yum Repository”, for a list), you can perform an in-place upgrade for MySQL (that is, replacing the old version and then running the new version off the old data files) with the MySQL Yum repository.
Before performing any update to MySQL, follow carefully the instructions in Section 2.10.1, “Upgrading MySQL”. Among other instructions discussed there, it is especially important to back up your database before the update.
The following instructions assume you have installed MySQL with the MySQL Yum repository or with an RPM package directly downloaded from MySQL Developer Zone's MySQL Download page; if that is not the case, following the instructions in Replacing a Third-Party Distribution of MySQL Using the MySQL Yum Repository.
-
Selecting a Target Series
By default, the MySQL Yum repository updates MySQL to the latest version in the release series you have chosen during installation (see Selecting a Release Series for details), which means, for example, a 5.7.x installation will NOT be updated to a 8.0.x release automatically. To update to another release series, you need to first disable the subrepository for the series that has been selected (by default, or by yourself) and enable the subrepository for your target series. To do that, see the general instructions given in Selecting a Release Series. For upgrading from MySQL 5.7 to 8.0, perform the reverse of the steps illustrated in Selecting a Release Series, disabling the subrepository for the MySQL 5.7 series and enabling that for the MySQL 8.0 series.
As a general rule, to upgrade from one release series to another, go to the next series rather than skipping a series. For example, if you are currently running MySQL 5.6 and wish to upgrade to 8.0, upgrade to MySQL 5.7 first before upgrading to 8.0.
ImportantFor important information about upgrading from MySQL 5.7 to 8.0, see Upgrading from MySQL 5.7 to 8.0.
-
Upgrading MySQL
Upgrade MySQL and its components by the following command, for platforms that are not dnf-enabled:
sudo yum update mysql-server
For platforms that are dnf-enabled:
sudo dnf upgrade mysql-server
Alternatively, you can update MySQL by telling Yum to update everything on your system, which might take considerably more time; for platforms that are not dnf-enabled:
sudo yum update
For platforms that are dnf-enabled:
sudo dnf upgrade
-
Restarting MySQL
The MySQL server always restarts after an update by Yum. Once the server restarts, run mysql_upgrade to check and possibly resolve any incompatibilities between the old data and the upgraded software. mysql_upgrade also performs other functions; see Section 4.4.5, “mysql_upgrade — Check and Upgrade MySQL Tables” for details.
You can also update only a specific component. Use the following command to list all the installed packages for the MySQL components (for dnf-enabled systems, replace yum in the command with dnf):
sudo yum list installed | grep "^mysql"
After identifying the package name of the component of your
choice, for platforms that are not dnf-enabled, update the
package with the following command, replacing
package-name with the name of the
package:
sudo yum update package-name
For dnf-enabled platforms:
sudo dnf upgrade package-name
Upgrading the Shared Client Libraries
After updating MySQL using the Yum repository, applications compiled with older versions of the shared client libraries should continue to work.
If you recompile applications and dynamically link them with the updated libraries: As typical with new versions of shared libraries where there are differences or additions in symbol versioning between the newer and older libraries (for example, between the newer, standard 8.0 shared client libraries and some older—prior or variant—versions of the shared libraries shipped natively by the Linux distributions' software repositories, or from some other sources), any applications compiled using the updated, newer shared libraries will require those updated libraries on systems where the applications are deployed. And, as expected, if those libraries are not in place, the applications requiring the shared libraries will fail. So, be sure to deploy the packages for the shared libraries from MySQL on those systems. You can do this by adding the MySQL Yum repository to the systems (see Adding the MySQL Yum Repository) and install the latest shared libraries using the instructions given in Installing Additional MySQL Products and Components with Yum.
On Debian and Ubuntu platforms, you can perform an in-place upgrade of MySQL and its components with the MySQL APT repository. See Upgrading MySQL with the MySQL APT Repository in A Quick Guide to Using the MySQL APT Repository.
Downgrade from MySQL 8.0 to MySQL 5.7 (or from a MySQL 8.0 release to a previous MySQL 8.0 release) is not supported. The only supported alternative is to restore a backup taken before upgrading. It is therefore imperative that you backup your data before starting the upgrade process.
This section describes how to rebuild or repair tables or indexes, which may be necessitated by:
Changes to how MySQL handles data types or character sets. For example, an error in a collation might have been corrected, necessitating a table rebuild to update the indexes for character columns that use the collation.
Required table repairs or upgrades reported by
CHECK TABLE, mysqlcheck, or mysql_upgrade.
Methods for rebuilding a table include:
If you are rebuilding tables because a different version of MySQL will not handle them after a binary (in-place) upgrade or downgrade, you must use the dump-and-reload method. Dump the tables before upgrading or downgrading using your original version of MySQL. Then reload the tables after upgrading or downgrading.
If you use the dump-and-reload method of rebuilding tables only for the purpose of rebuilding indexes, you can perform the dump either before or after upgrading or downgrading. Reloading still must be done afterward.
If you need to rebuild an InnoDB table
because a CHECK TABLE operation
indicates that a table upgrade is required, use
mysqldump to create a dump file and
mysql to reload the file. If the
CHECK TABLE operation indicates
that there is a corruption or causes InnoDB
to fail, refer to Section 15.20.2, “Forcing InnoDB Recovery” for
information about using the
innodb_force_recovery option to
restart InnoDB. To understand the type of
problem that CHECK TABLE may be
encountering, refer to the InnoDB notes in
Section 13.7.3.2, “CHECK TABLE Syntax”.
To rebuild a table by dumping and reloading it, use mysqldump to create a dump file and mysql to reload the file:
mysqldumpdb_namet1 > dump.sql mysqldb_name< dump.sql
To rebuild all the tables in a single database, specify the database name without any following table name:
mysqldumpdb_name> dump.sql mysqldb_name< dump.sql
To rebuild all tables in all databases, use the
--all-databases option:
mysqldump --all-databases > dump.sql mysql < dump.sql
To rebuild a table with ALTER
TABLE, use a “null” alteration; that is,
an ALTER TABLE statement that
“changes” the table to use the storage engine that
it already has. For example, if t1 is an
InnoDB table, use this statement:
ALTER TABLE t1 ENGINE = InnoDB;
If you are not sure which storage engine to specify in the
ALTER TABLE statement, use
SHOW CREATE TABLE to display the
table definition.
The REPAIR TABLE method is only
applicable to MyISAM,
ARCHIVE, and CSV tables.
You can use REPAIR TABLE if the
table checking operation indicates that there is a corruption or
that an upgrade is required. For example, to repair a
MyISAM table, use this statement:
REPAIR TABLE t1;
mysqlcheck --repair provides command-line
access to the REPAIR TABLE
statement. This can be a more convenient means of repairing
tables because you can use the
--databases or
--all-databases option to
repair all tables in specific databases or all databases,
respectively:
mysqlcheck --repair --databases db_name ...
mysqlcheck --repair --all-databases
In cases where you need to transfer databases between different architectures, you can use mysqldump to create a file containing SQL statements. You can then transfer the file to the other machine and feed it as input to the mysql client.
Use mysqldump --help to see what options are available.
The easiest (although not the fastest) way to move a database between two machines is to run the following commands on the machine on which the database is located:
mysqladmin -h 'other_hostname' createdb_namemysqldumpdb_name| mysql -h 'other_hostname'db_name
If you want to copy a database from a remote machine over a slow network, you can use these commands:
mysqladmin createdb_namemysqldump -h 'other_hostname' --compressdb_name| mysqldb_name
You can also store the dump in a file, transfer the file to the target machine, and then load the file into the database there. For example, you can dump a database to a compressed file on the source machine like this:
mysqldump --quickdb_name| gzip >db_name.gz
Transfer the file containing the database contents to the target machine and run these commands there:
mysqladmin createdb_namegunzip <db_name.gz | mysqldb_name
You can also use mysqldump and
mysqlimport to transfer the database. For large
tables, this is much faster than simply using
mysqldump. In the following commands,
DUMPDIR represents the full path name
of the directory you use to store the output from
mysqldump.
First, create the directory for the output files and dump the database:
mkdirDUMPDIRmysqldump --tab=DUMPDIRdb_name
Then transfer the files in the DUMPDIR
directory to some corresponding directory on the target machine
and load the files into MySQL there:
mysqladmin createdb_name# create database catDUMPDIR/*.sql | mysqldb_name# create tables in database mysqlimportdb_nameDUMPDIR/*.txt # load data into tables
Do not forget to copy the mysql database
because that is where the grant tables are stored. You might have
to run commands as the MySQL root user on the
new machine until you have the mysql database
in place.
After you import the mysql database on the new
machine, execute mysqladmin flush-privileges so
that the server reloads the grant table information.
The Perl DBI module provides a generic interface
for database access. You can write a DBI script
that works with many different database engines without change. To
use DBI, you must install the
DBI module, as well as a DataBase Driver (DBD)
module for each type of database server you want to access. For
MySQL, this driver is the DBD::mysql module.
Perl support is not included with MySQL distributions. You can obtain the necessary modules from http://search.cpan.org for Unix, or by using the ActiveState ppm program on Windows. The following sections describe how to do this.
The DBI/DBD interface requires
Perl 5.6.0, and 5.6.1 or later is preferred. DBI does not
work if you have an older version of Perl. You should use
DBD::mysql 4.009 or higher. Although earlier
versions are available, they do not support the full functionality
of MySQL 8.0.
MySQL Perl support requires that you have installed MySQL client programming support (libraries and header files). Most installation methods install the necessary files. If you install MySQL from RPM files on Linux, be sure to install the developer RPM as well. The client programs are in the client RPM, but client programming support is in the developer RPM.
The files you need for Perl support can be obtained from the CPAN (Comprehensive Perl Archive Network) at http://search.cpan.org.
The easiest way to install Perl modules on Unix is to use the
CPAN module. For example:
shell>perl -MCPAN -e shellcpan>install DBIcpan>install DBD::mysql
The DBD::mysql installation runs a number of
tests. These tests attempt to connect to the local MySQL server
using the default user name and password. (The default user name
is your login name on Unix, and ODBC on
Windows. The default password is “no password.”) If
you cannot connect to the server with those values (for example,
if your account has a password), the tests fail. You can use
force install DBD::mysql to ignore the failed
tests.
DBI requires the
Data::Dumper module. It may be installed; if
not, you should install it before installing
DBI.
It is also possible to download the module distributions in the form of compressed tar archives and build the modules manually. For example, to unpack and build a DBI distribution, use a procedure such as this:
Unpack the distribution into the current directory:
shell>
gunzip < DBI-VERSION.tar.gz | tar xvf -This command creates a directory named
DBI-.VERSIONChange location into the top-level directory of the unpacked distribution:
shell>
cd DBI-VERSIONBuild the distribution and compile everything:
shell>
perl Makefile.PLshell>makeshell>make testshell>make install
The make test command is important because it
verifies that the module is working. Note that when you run that
command during the DBD::mysql installation to
exercise the interface code, the MySQL server must be running or
the test fails.
It is a good idea to rebuild and reinstall the
DBD::mysql distribution whenever you install a
new release of MySQL. This ensures that the latest versions of the
MySQL client libraries are installed correctly.
If you do not have access rights to install Perl modules in the system directory or if you want to install local Perl modules, the following reference may be useful: http://learn.perl.org/faq/perlfaq8.html#How-do-I-keep-my-own-module-library-directory-
On Windows, you should do the following to install the MySQL
DBD module with ActiveState Perl:
Get ActiveState Perl from http://www.activestate.com/Products/ActivePerl/ and install it.
Open a console window.
If necessary, set the
HTTP_proxyvariable. For example, you might try a setting like this:C:\>
set HTTP_proxy=my.proxy.com:3128Start the PPM program:
C:\>
C:\perl\bin\ppm.plIf you have not previously done so, install
DBI:ppm>
install DBIIf this succeeds, run the following command:
ppm>
install DBD-mysql
This procedure should work with ActiveState Perl 5.6 or higher.
If you cannot get the procedure to work, you should install the ODBC driver instead and connect to the MySQL server through ODBC:
use DBI;
$dbh= DBI->connect("DBI:ODBC:$dsn",$user,$password) ||
die "Got error $DBI::errstr when connecting to $dsn\n";
If Perl reports that it cannot find the
../mysql/mysql.so module, the problem is
probably that Perl cannot locate the
libmysqlclient.so shared library. You should
be able to fix this problem by one of the following methods:
Copy
libmysqlclient.soto the directory where your other shared libraries are located (probably/usr/libor/lib).Modify the
-Loptions used to compileDBD::mysqlto reflect the actual location oflibmysqlclient.so.On Linux, you can add the path name of the directory where
libmysqlclient.sois located to the/etc/ld.so.conffile.Add the path name of the directory where
libmysqlclient.sois located to theLD_RUN_PATHenvironment variable. Some systems useLD_LIBRARY_PATHinstead.
Note that you may also need to modify the -L
options if there are other libraries that the linker fails to
find. For example, if the linker cannot find
libc because it is in /lib
and the link command specifies -L/usr/lib, change
the -L option to -L/lib or add
-L/lib to the existing link command.
If you get the following errors from
DBD::mysql, you are probably using
gcc (or using an old binary compiled with
gcc):
/usr/bin/perl: can't resolve symbol '__moddi3' /usr/bin/perl: can't resolve symbol '__divdi3'
Add -L/usr/lib/gcc-lib/... -lgcc to the link
command when the mysql.so library gets built
(check the output from make for
mysql.so when you compile the Perl client).
The -L option should specify the path name of the
directory where libgcc.a is located on your
system.
Another cause of this problem may be that Perl and MySQL are not both compiled with gcc. In this case, you can solve the mismatch by compiling both with gcc.
