I was able to download the MySQL DMG archive to my OS (Mac OS X). It works if I use the command line. Now I am trying to install MySQL Workbench. I created MySQL Connection, but as soon as I test the host settings, I get:
Checking command 'ps xa | grep "/usr/local/mysql.*/bin/[m]ysqld"'
Server detected as running
Check if /etc/my.cnf can be accessed
Operation failed: File /etc/my.cnf doesn't exist
I try to find my.cnf file and I get:
Didis-MacBook:~ Didi$ find . -type f -name "*my.cnf*"
find: ./perms/newdir: Permission denied
So, I tried to create my own "my.cnf" by typing:
cd /usr/local/mysql/support-files/
sudo cp my-huge.cnf /etc/my.cnf
Then he asked for a password. I do not remember how the password was configured. Therefore, I typed:
/usr/local/psa/bin/admin --show-password
and get:
-bash: /usr/local/psa/bin/admin: No such file or directory.
I believe that my password should be in / etc / passwd, but I don’t have the “etc” directory on my system!
I'm running out of ideas, can someone help me?
