How to uninstall MySQL 5.7 installed through MacPorts?

Question

Using this MacPorts guide , I installed MySQL 5.7 on my Mac.

I want to uninstall it now but I can't find any documentation specific to removing just the MySQL server I installed through MacPorts.

I found this guide and others similar to it on how to completely remove MySQL on a Mac, and followed every single step listed.

However, when I issue the command, sudo port load mysql57-server , I can still load the MySQL server.

So how can I completely remove MySQL 5.7 installed through MacPorts?

Answer 1

Turns out, it's really simple - sudo port uninstall mysql57-server .

That removed MySQL 5.7 installed through MacPorts.
