In your home directory do you have a .zshrc file?

supple spoke Feb 13, 2023, 11:20 PM

#

livid rapids Feb 13, 2023, 11:21 PM

livid rapids Feb 13, 2023, 11:21 PM

livid rapids Feb 13, 2023, 11:22 PM

ty

#

I spent 3 hours on this issue 😭 Ty so much it means a lot

livid rapids Feb 13, 2023, 11:24 PM

#

MacOS used to use Bash, it now uses ZSH. So if a tutorial tells you to use .bashrc or .bash_profile use the ZSH one instead

supple spoke Feb 13, 2023, 11:24 PM

#

now I just do mysql -u -root -p

#

not dash root

#

yh makes sense

#

its pretty old

#

OK

IT WORKS

#

TY SO MUCH
