Yosemite 10.10.1 Update Seems to Break MySql Again

Postby GeneralCat » 09. December 2014 00:23

I'm running the latest version of XAMPP: 1.8.3-5
Originally this version fixed the problem with MySql failing to start after upgrading to Yosemite, however Apple's recent update to 10.10.1 seems to break it again.
Apache Web Server will start, and so will ProFTPD, but Mysql will not.
Reinstalling xampp doesn't fix anything.
Running the command:
Code: Select all
sudo /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/bin/mysql.server start

in the Terminal will produce this error:
MySQL
. ERROR! The server quit without updating PID file (/Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/var/mysql/aluminus.wireless.sbcc.local.pid).

I've verified that the line "unset DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH" exists in Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/xampp

I don't know what else I can do to get it to work again.

Same issue with me, I solved it with following solution:
1. create 2 plist for apache and mysql individually, for example, org.apachefriends.apache.plist, org.apachefriends.mysql.plist
2. put those 2 files into /Library/LaunchDaemons

the sample files as below:

cat org.apachefriends.apache.plist
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
<key>Disabled</key>
<false/>
<key>KeepAlive</key>
<true/>
<key>Label</key>
<string>org.apachefriends.apache.plist</string>
<key>ProgramArguments</key>
<array>
<string>/Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/apache2/scripts/ctl.sh</string>
<string>start</string>
</array>
<key>RunAtLoad</key>
<true/>
<key>WorkingDirectory</key>
<string>/Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/</string>
</dict>
</plist>


cat org.apachefriends.mysql.plist
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
<key>Disabled</key>
<false/>
<key>KeepAlive</key>
<true/>
<key>Label</key>
<string>org.apachefriends.mysql.plist</string>
<key>ProgramArguments</key>
<array>
<string>/Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/mysql/scripts/ctl.sh</string>
<string>start</string>
</array>
<key>RunAtLoad</key>
<true/>
<key>WorkingDirectory</key>
<string>/Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/</string>
</dict>
</plist>

I'm actually not using the latest version of XAMPP and am using Yosemite.

XAMPP-MYSQL will start from the terminal using:

sudo /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/bin/mysql.server start

However it will not start using the XAMPP Application Manager. Application Manager does install Apache and ftp servers.

I tried using the plist described above. Still no work.

Is this a version issue?

Is the only way to update XAMPP when a database exists to export the database as an sql file, delete old XAMPP version and then import the database from the sql file?

Any way to install it and preserve the existing databases in the new install?

Strike three. I've tried the DYLD_LIBRARY_Path method, I've tried putting those plist files in my LaunchDaemons folder. It tries to start, but fails. Most recently, I tried the "sudo /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/bin/mysql.server start" command in the terminal. I got this error after 30-60 seconds:

ERROR! The server quit without updating PID file (/Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/var/mysql/Jonathan-Duecks-MacBook-Pro.local.pid)
.

Newb here. Where's the EASY button? :-P
