在OSX 10.11 El Capitan上安装MySQL实用程序

Question

Wanted to use mysqldbcopy , which is part of MySQL Utilities. The latest release (mysql-utilities-1.5.6-osx10.9.dmg) appears to be for Mavericks, and attempting to use it results in the warning: "This package is incompatible with this version of OS X and may fail to install." Spoiler alert, it does fail to install.

I found these instructions , which seem promising:

1. You need Connector/Python installed in your system. Download it from here: http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/python/
2. Download MySQL Utilities source code by selecting "Source Code" from "Select Platform" in http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/utilities/
3. Follow the instructions of MySQL Utilities installation from source: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql-utilities/1.5/en/mysql-utils-install-source.html

I have Python installed, but am a little unclear about step 2. The download options for source code download list only has options for Windows and a few flavors of Linux. Anybody know which one to use?

Answer 1

I managed to install MySQL Utilities from source code. The downloads listed for the platform "source code" were all labelled "Architecture Independent" so I figured it didn't matter which one I used.

1. You need Connector/Python installed in your system. Download it from here: http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/python/
2. Download MySQL Utilities source code by selecting "Source Code" from "Select Platform" in http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/utilities/
   • I downloaded the Windows distribution and unzipped it
3. From a terminal:
   • $ cd path/to/unzipped/mysql-utilities-1.5.6
   • $ python ./setup.py build
   • $ sudo python ./setup.py install

That all seemed to work great and mysqldbcopy is now available. I forget it I had to close and reopen my terminal, but, depending on your setup, you might have to do that.
