InstallationInstallation MySQL is available for most Operating
Systems Binaries, RPMS and DEBs available Windows Source Code
http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/ Is what I recommend
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/getting-mysql.html
4
PackagesPackages sudo apt-get install mysql5 rpm -Uhv mysql5
May have slightly different names, may have client utilities separate

Configuration FilesConfiguration Filesshell> cp support-files/my-medium.cnf /etc/my.cnf
The configuration files have not aged well. They were written long ago. Please read through the choices to find one that best matches your system.
MySQL will use built-it defaults, almost guaranteed not to be optimal for your environment if no my.cnf is present
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/binary-installation.html
7
Starting MySQLStarting MySQLshell> bin/mysqld_safe --user=mysql & This command is what starts your MySQL server. It runs a wrapper script as user mysql in the background. You might also see this wrapper wrapped
/etc/init.d/mysql start or service mysql start
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/binary-installation.html
8
mysqldmysqld What is that wrapper running? The mysqld
binary
/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqld –user=mysql
(And other options from /etc/mysql/my.cnf)
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/mysqld.html
9
/etc/mysql/my.cnf/etc/mysql/my.cnf Options for your
MySQL Server Please use as CLI
options are not good for long term sanity!
Use your favorite change control program to track changes

shell> mysql --user=user_name --password=your_password db_name
mysql db_name < script.sql > output.tab

Use the mysql client program to connect to the server
13
Connect to Another HostConnect to Another Host
shell> mysql –host=host db_name shell> mysql -h host db_name
These two commands are equivalent

Looking At DataLooking At Data mysql> show tables; mysql> select * from City; mysql> SELECT Name, CountryCode --> FROM City → WHERE Population > 10000000;
20
BackupBackup Physical versus logical
Many options, many tools Restoration from backup needs to be tested
shell> mysqldump --all-databases > dump.sql shell> mysqldump --databases db1 db2 db3 >
dump.sql (and to restore)
shell> mysql < dump.sql
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/backup-and-recovery.html
21
Login/AuthenticationLogin/Authentication MySQL authentication is a little primitive The mysql database has tables for login
information Easy to get confused
Use a tool like MySQL Workbench Be stingy with permissions Read chapter 6 of the MySQL manual
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/grant-table-structure.html
22
mysql.user tablemysql.user table
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/grant-table-structure.html
Host User Password Privileges Connection constraints (ssl, time, # connections) The server will first check Host address first, then
user and password. Joe @ foo.net can have separate privs than Joe @
127.0.0.1 and % @ foo.net can trump Joe @ foo.net

You can use the CLI but ...
mysql> select * from user where User='joe' limit 1\G*************************** 1. row *************************** Host: % User: joe Password: Select_priv: N Insert_priv: N Update_priv: N Delete_priv: N Create_priv: N Drop_priv: N Reload_priv: N Shutdown_priv: N Process_priv: N File_priv: N Grant_priv: N References_priv: N Index_priv: N Alter_priv: N Show_db_priv: N Super_priv: N Create_tmp_table_priv: N Lock_tables_priv: N Execute_priv: N Repl_slave_priv: N Repl_client_priv: N Create_view_priv: N Show_view_priv: N Create_routine_priv: N Alter_routine_priv: N Create_user_priv: N Event_priv: N Trigger_priv: NCreate_tablespace_priv: N ssl_type: ssl_cipher: x509_issuer: x509_subject: max_questions: 0 max_updates: 0 max_connections: 0 max_user_connections: 0 plugin: authentication_string: NULL
Yes, you can type in the settings for a new account by hand but it is easy to fat finger one of the thirty privs.
Other tools have similar features and you should use them to avoid dumb errors.
