MySql is a relational Database Management System.

Use ["Synaptic"] to install program if you don't have the packages installed. Or use "apt-get install mysql-server mysql-client" to install within the console.

  • DebSearch:mysql

MySql Server

MySql can start on boot time or only if you type manually (as root):

  /etc/init.d/mysql start

After an upgrade of the Debian package you might need to run (as root):

  mysql_fix_privilege_tables.

MySql will only install if you have a NON-NUMERIC hostname that is resolvable via the /etc/host file

The Debian package of ["MySQL"] server creates the user debian-sys-maint that is used in the start-stop and cron ["script"]s. Don't delete him.

MySql Client

To use ["MySQL"] client just type as any user :

  mysql

You can use too ["MySQL"] Navigator (GUI client program for ["MySQL"] database server ) typing

  mysql-navigator 

in a terminal ( the package name is the same to get it using apt or ["Synaptic"]).

or mysql-query-browser ( official GUI tool to query ["MySQL"] database).

After installation, you can find it in the Debian / Database menu too.

You can use too MySql Control Center, gmyclient and gnome-database .
