I've removed and reinstalled it 3 times now. Both are the versions that came pre-installed. Apache is enabled and working, and PHP is enabled and working. 2 Check that MySQL is reachable on port 3306 (note: 3306 is the default, but this can be changed) 3 Check the user root has rights to connect to localhost from your address (MySQL rights define what clients can connect to the server and from which machines) 4 Make sure you are both providing a. rwxrwxrwx 1 root wheel 2478 Dec 27 22:46 README*Дrwxrwxrwx 40 root wheel 1360 Jan 24 08:41 bin/Дrwxrwxrwx 6 _mysql _mysql 204 Apr 13 14:48 data/Дrwxrwxrwx 5 root wheel 170 Jan 24 08:41 docs/Дrwxrwxrwx 50 root wheel 1700 Jan 24 08:41 include/Дrwxrwxrwx 2 _mysql _mysql 68 Apr 13 14:48 keyring/Дrwxrwxrwx 11 root wheel 374 Apr 13 14:48 lib/Дrwxrwxrwx 4 root wheel 136 Jan 24 08:41 man/Дrwxrwxrwx 39 root wheel 1326 Jan 24 08:41 share/Дrwxrwxrwx 6 root wheel 204 Jan 24 08:41 support-files/ 1 Check that MySQL is running on address localhost. rwxrwxrwx 1 root wheel 17987 Dec 27 22:46 COPYING* This has happened to me on a few occasions with XAMPP, seemingly caused by stopping the MySQL server in the control panel.

Дrwxr-xr-x 9 root wheel 306 Apr 13 14:48. How to fix MySQL server not starting in the XAMPP control panel. usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqld_safe: line 198: 11197 Trace/BPT trap: 5 nohup /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqld -basedir=/usr/local/mysql -datadir=/usr/local/mysql/data -plugin-dir=/usr/local/mysql/lib/plugin -user=mysql -log-error= -pid-file=/usr/local/mysql/data/ /dev/null 2>&1Д®RROR! The server quit without updating PID file (/usr/local/mysql/data/).ДЄlso, here are my permissions, so you can see this is not the problem: Sheryls-MacBook-Pro:mysql Sheryl$ ls -laFДrwxrwxrwx 13 root wheel 442 Apr 13 14:48.

That does suggest something is preventing processes from writing to the directory, but it's not file permissions. Not only is the PID file not being updated, but the error file is not being written either, though the error message in Terminal when I try to start MySQL says that it is. I have recursively changed the permissions on the symbolic and original directory trees to 777 and I still get the error.

But the solutions are always 'fix the permissions'. I have been researching this problem for two days, and I know there are many other posts about it.
