Mysql command not found on mac pro_MySQL

If you are encountering the "mysql command not found" error on your Mac, it means that the MySQL executable is not in your system's PATH. Here are a few steps you can follow to resolve this issue:

1. Open a terminal window.

2. Check if MySQL is installed by running the following command:

   mysql --version

   If MySQL is installed, it will display the version information. If it is not installed, you will need to install it.

3. If MySQL is installed, but the command is not found, you can try adding the MySQL executable to your PATH. Open the terminal and run the following command:

   echo 'export PATH="/usr/local/mysql/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.bash_profile

   This command adds the MySQL executable directory to your PATH by appending it to the .bash_profile file.

4. After running the above command, you need to reload the .bash_profile file. Run the following command to do so:

   source ~/.bash_profile

5. Now try running the mysql command again. It should work without any issues.

If the above steps do not resolve the issue, it is possible that MySQL was not installed correctly. In that case, you may need to reinstall MySQL or troubleshoot the installation process.
