Today I am going to use mysql to build a table, and the result of entering the mysql command results in an error command not found: mysql
error message
This prompt means that mysql cannot be found
1. First of all, make sure whether your mysql is started or not. In your [System Settings] --> scroll to the bottom on the left side to find mysql --> check whether mysql is started. If it does not start, start it first, if it starts, try to close it and start it again.
2. If the error is still reported
It may be caused by the lack of mysql in the /usr/local/bin directory. The solution is to find the mysql command and map it to the /usr/local/bin directory.
(1) Check whether there is a mysql command in the /usr/local/bin directory, open the Finder --> click the top to go --> go to the folder
——"Input /usr/local/bin——>Enter to enter /usr/local/bin, there is no mysql command on my side
(2) Find the bin folder under the mysql installation path, you can directly click on this interface and then click on the upper folder
Find your corresponding mysql version and then enter the bin folder, find the mysql command
copy its path
(3) Enter on the command line
sudo ln -fs /usr/local/mysql-5.7.27-macos10.14-x86_64/bin/mysql /usr/local/bin/usr/local/mysql-5.7.27-macos10.14-x86_64/bin/mysql is the path you just copied
Press Enter to run the command, ask for a password, and run after entering the password
Check whether the mysql command is running normally
normal operation
Check if there is a mapping file under the usr/local/bin file
Mapping file already exists
problem solved
