Mac下Mysql启动异常["ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2)"]

在mac下使用brew安装mysql，之前没有使用过，今天启动的时候发现启动不了

huijundeMacBook-Pro:bin huijunzhang$ mysql
ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2)

查看mysql的安装位置：

huijundeMacBook-Pro:bin huijunzhang$ which mysql
/usr/local/bin/mysql

说明mysql还是安装过的

huijundeMacBook-Pro:bin huijunzhang$ brew info mysql

==> Caveats
We've installed your MySQL database without a root password. To secure it run:
    mysql_secure_installation

To connect run:
    mysql -uroot

To have launchd start mysql now and restart at login:
  brew services start mysql
Or, if you don't want/need a background service you can just run:
  mysql.server start

有可能是mysql服务没有启动

huijundeMacBook-Pro:bin huijunzhang$ mysql.server start
Starting MySQL
. SUCCESS! 

mysql服务启动！

接下来要试试能否进入mysql了

huijundeMacBook-Pro:bin huijunzhang$ mysql
ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'huijunzhang'@'localhost' (using password: NO)

这个提示应该很明显了吧，权限问题，mysql下没有huijunzhang这个用户，装过mysql的朋友应该知道，安装mysql默认的用户名是root,端口是3306，别问我为什么知道。。。

那就使用root用户启动：

huijundeMacBook-Pro:bin huijunzhang$ sudo mysql
Password:
Welcome to the MySQL monitor.  Commands end with ; or \g.

总结：出现“ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2)”的根本原因就是mysql服务没有启动,下面总结下mysql在mac下的几个常用的命令吧！

$ mysql.server start
$ mysql.server restart
$ mysql.server stop
$ mysql.server status
$ mysql -u root -p
