I have install MySQL from pkg installer on my mac, When I try to start it using this command 

/usr/local/mysql/support-files/mysql.server restart

It gives me following error:

The server quit without updating PID file (/usr/local/mysql/data/xyz.local.pid)

Upon checking error log, I found this

mysqld_safe Starting mysqld daemon with databases from /usr/local/mysql/data
mysqld_safe mysqld from pid file /usr/local/mysql/data/xyz.local.pid ended

Well I have tried every possible solution out there, I have followed related question here Missing PID still I am unable to resolve this issue.

Here is how my.cnf looks like

[mysqld]

# Remove leading # and set to the amount of RAM for the most important data
# cache in MySQL. Start at 70% of total RAM for dedicated server, else 10%.
# innodb_buffer_pool_size = 128M

# Remove leading # to turn on a very important data integrity option: logging
# changes to the binary log between backups.
# log_bin

# These are commonly set, remove the # and set as required.
# basedir = .....
# datadir = .....
# port = .....
# server_id = .....
# socket = .....

# Remove leading # to set options mainly useful for reporting servers.
# The server defaults are faster for transactions and fast SELECTs.
# Adjust sizes as needed, experiment to find the optimal values.
# join_buffer_size = 128M
# sort_buffer_size = 2M
# read_rnd_buffer_size = 2M

sql_mode=NO_ENGINE_SUBSTITUTION,STRICT_TRANS_TABLES

I have also tried installing MySQL with Macports, still the same issue.

  • Did you use `sudo /usr/local/mysql/support-files/mysql.server restart` or else start it from a root shell? It will fail with an error about the PID file if you try to start it from a non-superuser shell. – Bill Karwin Sep 11 '14 at 17:26
  • Yes I did that.Actually the issue was with Macports, I reinstalled MacPorts, Installed MySQL again and it worked. Thanks anyway. – Sajjad Sep 11 '14 at 18:36
