Download SQL for Windows

There is no same downloads as the ‘Installing MySQL on Windows’ video in section 1 of Complete SQL Mastery course.

When I downloaded 32 bit, it does Not allow me to choose Workbench to the right (Select to download).

Can anyone help?

Hi Molly

I recommend using DataGrip as a substitute for MySQL Workbench. It is free and has, in my opinion, a more modern layout.

Hi,

I downloaded My SQL. it says MySQL workbench could not detect any MySQL server running. This means that MySQL is not installed or is not running.

For DataGrip, do I download the one from home page or DataGrip for MySQL developers:

Please include the exact link, thank you so much.

Merry Xmas Dskovgaard!

I’ve downloaded DataGrip.

But when I open Mosh’s files, it gives me a bunch of codes and not showing the tables eg Payments table, it’s different.

How should I use it? How to show the actual table please.

Thank you,

Molly

You need to add MySQL as a datasource and log in to localhost with your root credentials.

I add MySQL, it comes up with a pop-up screen. What should I do?

(I did not understand log in to local host with my root credentials.)

If I remember correctly, when you install MySQL, you create the localhost and set a password for the root user. These credentials, you need to apply to DataGrip, when setting up the MySQL connection.

Try googling for some answers. I am sure others have had the same issue as you. As Mosh tells multiple times during his courses, part of being a developer is also the trouble shooting. You learn a great deal by doing this.
