An error message occurs when I try to download MySQL


How can I use MySQL? I’ve also tried to home brew but am unsuccessful as well. I have also tried to download an earlier version but that was out of date and would not show up because newer version exist. I appreciate all the help I can get! Thank you.

Hi,
Did you check the system requirements?
I don’t know the apple ecosystem but maybe you’re using a 32 bit operating system/ processor and downloaded the 64 bit version.

People suggest to use brew and others Docker. I was also about suggesting that second option. The first one seems to be the most reasonable one if brew is the equivalent to dpkg or rpm.

Best Regards.

sorry to be really rude or maybe downright no help here , but try a simple windows machine if possible. I am myself studying the sql course and with windows it goes just fine.(Mickysoft with Mickeysoft). an used & reused windows machine will cost a lousy 100 bucks max . sorry but I just shudder with apple (only for the rich folks). windows & android for the peasants :wink:

This is actually extremely helpful, thank you!

Thank you so much, I was able to finally figure it out!

I am not sure if you should try to be a voice for the “peasants”, while calling a 100 bucks “lousy”, and your solution is to go spend even more money for another computer.
