Different setup type than in the course. Which is don’t have ‘Developer default’.
What I need to do? Please consult me .
Mosh has a mac, i have windows, i ended up watching a youtube video to make sure i got the right settings. I think this was the one and everything worked fine https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=If_racf2ocM&pp=ygUlaW5zdGFsbCBteXNxbCB3b3JrYmVuY2ggb24gd2luZG93cyAxMQ%3D%3D
Hi,
Don’t know that course. Didn’t take it.
I don’t know all the MySQL products but from your picture there is nothing very complicated.
It basically asks you if you want to install the client, server or both (including extra tools likely).
So when would you pick one or another option ?
- Say you are a developer and in the environment you are working in there is a DBA (Database Administrator). You don’t need to install the server. So* you install client only* to be able to query the server.
- Say you are a DBA : You need to install the server on a specific machine. This machine may or may not have the client installed. For instance to comply by a security policy. You install server only. Then you will need to do just like the developer and reach to a machine with the client installed so that you can query it.
- Say you are in a very similar environment as above but there is no such security policy. Moreover DBAs find ithandy for they often need to query right from the server room. You may install full or you may install custom.
- Say you just need one tool without server or client whatever it is, * you install custom*.
- You name it…
Basically it is up to you. On your personal machine, in the context of learning I would go full or custom. Client, server as bare minimum and make sure to install any tool such as MySQL Workbench. Both our dev and DBA may work with it.
Hope this helps.
