No error reported by AppleScript but MySQL server is still not loaded according to ps command ps aux | grep mysql
Mac mysql server wont start password#
Try to run this script instead do shell script "apachectl start" password "mypassword" with administrator privileges do shell script "/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqld_safe > /dev/null 2>&1 &" password "mypassword" with administrator privileges

Any suggestion will be highly appreciated. Would anybody tell what's wrong with my script or I've missed something. The apple script result says: "110428 11:03:06 mysqld_safe Logging to '/usr/local/mysql/data/'.ġ10428 11:03:06 mysqld_safe Starting mysqld daemon with databases from /usr/local/mysql/dataġ10428 11:03:06 mysqld_safe mysqld from pid file /usr/local/mysql/data/ ended" However, I can't simply do the same for starting mysql server do shell script "/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqld_safe" password "mypassword" user name "ngocminh" with administrator privileges

This is the output from running sudo /user/local/mysql/bin/mysql_safe: sudo /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqld_safeġ10428 09:52:03 mysqld_safe Logging to '/usr/local/mysql/data/'.ġ10428 09:52:03 mysqld_safe Starting mysqld daemon with databases from /usr/local/mysql/dataĪpache2 server can be started using the command sudo apachetl start, then it could be implemented using an AppleScript script like this: do shell script "apachectl start" password "mypassword" user name "ngocminh" with administrator privileges I can start the server using PreferencePane, using command line sudo /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqld_safe but cannot use the same command within AppleScript. I've sucessfully installed MySQL server (5.5.11) on my MAC Snow Leopard.
