I've moved to a new machine and installing MySQL is turning out to be quite an issue (the last time I installed it on a mac it was quite seamless). I used two approaches to install MySQL: brew and the offical installer. Brew: I started with brew install mysql. This installed the latest version of MySQL. Install MySQL on macOS Mojave. Download and install the latest MySQL generally available release DMG for macOS. While MySQL 8 is the latest version, many of my projects still use MySQL 5.7. So I still prefer installing the older version. When the install completes it will provide you with a temporary password.
Recommend switching to Docker
I finally switched to using Docker for local development on macOS. While the following tutorial works for macOS Mojave, it will not for future versions of macOS. I recommend following my latest tutorial on installing Apache, MySQL, and PHP on macOS using Docker.
Note: This post is for new installations. If you have installed Apache, PHP, and MySQL for Mac OS Sierra, read my post on Updating Apache, PHP, and MySQL for macOS Mojave.
I am aware of the web server software available for macOS, notably MAMP, as well as package managers like brew
. These get you started quickly. But they forego the learning experience and, as most developers report, can become difficult to manage.
The thing is macOS runs atop UNIX. So most UNIX software installs easily on macOS. Furthermore, Apache and PHP come preinstalled with macOS. To create a local web server, all you need to do is configure Apache and install MySQL.
Running Commands
Adobe audition 1.5 free download for mac. First, open the Terminal app and switch to the root
user so you can run the commands in this post without any permission issues:
Enable Apache on macOS
Verify It works! by accessing http://localhost
Enable PHP for Apache
First, make a backup of the default Apache configuration. Free cell card game download for mac. This is good practice and serves as a comparison against future versions of macOS.
Now edit the Apache configuration. Feel free to use a different editor if you are not familiar with vi.
Uncomment the following line (remove #
):
Restart Apache:
You can verify PHP is enabled by creating a phpinfo()
page in your DocumentRoot
.
The default DocumentRoot
for macOS Mojave is /Library/WebServer/Documents
. You can verify this from your Apache configuration.
Now create the phpinfo()
page in your DocumentRoot
:
Verify PHP by accessing http://localhost/phpinfo.php

Install MySQL on macOS Mojave
Download and install the latest MySQL generally available release DMG for macOS. While MySQL 8 is the latest version, many of my projects still use MySQL 5.7. So I still prefer installing the older version.
When the install completes it will provide you with a temporary password. Copy this password before closing the installer. You will use it again in a few steps.
The README suggests creating aliases for mysql
and mysqladmin
. However there are other commands that are helpful such as mysqldump
. Instead, you can update your path to include /usr/local/mysql/bin
.
Note: You will need to open a new Terminal window or run the command above for your path to update.
Finally, you should run mysql_secure_installation
. While this isn't necessary, it's good practice to secure your database. This is also where you can change that nasty temporary password to something more manageable for local development.
Connect PHP and MySQL
You need to ensure PHP and MySQL can communicate with one another. There are several options to do so. I like the following as it doesn't require changing lots of configuration:
Additional Configuration (optional)
The default configuration for Apache 2.4 on macOS seemed pretty lean. For example, common modules like mod_rewrite
were disabled. You may consider enabling this now to avoid forgetting they are disabled in the future.

If you develop multiple projects and would like each to have a unique url, you can configure Apache VirtualHosts for macOS.
If you would like to install PHPMyAdmin, return to my original post on installing Apache, PHP, and MySQL on macOS.

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:

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 5.7.33 it might be named

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, Preference Pane, Launchd Support -- all enabled by default).
Although the option is visible, the installation location cannot be changed.

After a successful installation, the installer displays a window with your temporary root password. This cannot be recovered so you must save this password for the initial login to MySQL. For example:

MySQL expires this temporary root password after the initial login and requires you to create a new password.

MySQL server is now installed, but it is not loaded (or started) by default. Use either launchctl from the command line, or start MySQL by clicking 'Start' using the MySQL preference pane. For additional information, see Chapter 3, Installing a MySQL Launch Daemon, and Chapter 4, Installing and Using the MySQL Preference Pane. Use the MySQL Preference Pane or launchd to configure MySQL to automatically start at bootup.
