How to stop mysqld

To find out the start command for mysqld (using a mac) I can do:

ps aux|grep mysql

I get the following output, which allows me to start mysql server.

/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqld --basedir=/usr/local/mysql --datadir=...

How would I find the necessary command to stop mysql from the command line?

When mysql was installed with Homebrew, it automatically restarts when killed. You need to use the following command:

brew services stop mysql

PS: If you installed a specific version, it will be [email protected]

  1. Just go to task manager.
  2. Then in process, search mysqld.
  3. right click on mysqld then click on stop.

/etc/init.d/mysql stop
service mysql stop
killall -KILL mysql mysqld_safe mysqld

When you see the following information, you success

mysql: no process found
mysqld_safe: no process found
mysqld: no process found

I use this to solve the installation problem of MySQL 5.6 in Ubuntu 15.10 using this link.

During this installation, I encounter the problem saying:

"mysqld_safe A mysqld process already exists"

Just completely stop the mysqld, mysqld_safe, mysql solves the problem.

Try killing mysqld four times in a row. It's the only thing that worked for me...

root@ubuntu:/etc/init# killall -KILL mysqld 
root@ubuntu:/etc/init# killall -KILL mysqld 
root@ubuntu:/etc/init# killall -KILL mysqld 
root@ubuntu:/etc/init# killall -KILL mysqld 
mysqld: no process found

Just keep killing it over and over until you see "mysqld: no process found".

For MAMP

  1. Stop servers (but you may notice MySQL stays on)
  2. Remove or rename /Applications/MAMP/tmp/mysql/ which holds the mysql.pid and mysql.sock.lock files
  3. When you go back to Mamp, you'll see MySQL is now off. You can "Start Servers" again.

Worked for me on mac

a) Stop the process

sudo launchctl list | grep -i mysql

If the result shows anything like: "xxx.xxx.mysqlxxx"

sudo launchctl remove xxx.xxx.mysqlxxx

Example: sudo launchctl remove org.macports.mysql56-server

b) Disable to autostart the process

sudo launchctl unload -wF /Library/LaunchDaemons/xxx.xxx.mysqlxxx.plist

Example: sudo launchctl unload -wF /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.mysql56-server.plist

  • Finally reboot your mac

Note: In some cases if you tried "a)" first, you need to reboot again before try b).

For Windows, you can run this command directly if mysql/bin is in your path. 

mysqladmin -u root -p shutdown

Try:

/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqladmin -u root -p shutdown

Or:

sudo mysqld stop

Or:

sudo /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqld stop

Or:

sudo mysql.server stop

If you install the Launchctl in OSX you can try:

MacPorts

sudo launchctl unload -w /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.mysql.plist
sudo launchctl load -w /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.mysql.plist

Note: this is persistent after reboot.

Homebrew

launchctl unload -w ~/Library/LaunchAgents/homebrew.mxcl.mysql.plist
launchctl load -w ~/Library/LaunchAgents/homebrew.mxcl.mysql.plist

Binary installer

sudo /Library/StartupItems/MySQLCOM/MySQLCOM stop
sudo /Library/StartupItems/MySQLCOM/MySQLCOM start
sudo /Library/StartupItems/MySQLCOM/MySQLCOM restart

I found that in: https://stackoverflow.com/a/102094/58768

On OSX 10.8 and on, the control for MySQL is available from the System Configs. Open System Preferences, click on Mysql (usually on the very bottom) and start/stop the service from that pane. https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.6/en/osx-installation-launchd.html

The plist file is now under /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.oracle.oss.mysql.mysqld.plist

Kill is definitly the wrong way! The PID will stay, Replicationsjobs will be killed etc. etc.

STOP MySQL Server

/sbin/service mysql stop

START MySQL Server

/sbin/service mysql start

RESTART MySQL Server

/sbin/service mysql restart

Perhaps sudo will be needed if you have not enough rights

What worked for me on CentOS 6.4 was running service mysqld stop as the root user.

I found my answer on nixCraft.

There is an alternative way of just killing the daemon process by calling

kill -TERM PID

where PID is the value stored in the file mysqld.pid or the mysqld process id which can be obtained by issuing the command ps -a | grep mysqld.
