MySQL is not recognised after successfull installation.

It appears that the MySQL command is not being recognized in your terminal. Let’s troubleshoot this issue:

1. Check MySQL Installation Path:
   • First, verify the installation path of MySQL. By default, it should be in /usr/local/mysql/bin.
   • Open a terminal and run the following command to navigate to the MySQL bin directory:cd /usr/local/mysql/bin
   • If you see the MySQL binaries (including mysql), you’re in the right place.
2. Add MySQL to PATH:
   • To make the mysql command accessible globally, add the MySQL bin directory to your system’s PATH.
   • Open your shell profile file (usually .bashrc or .zshrc) using a text editor:nano ~/.bashrc
   • Add the following line at the end of the file:export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/mysql/bin
   • Save the file and exit the text editor.
   • Restart your terminal or run source ~/.bashrc to apply the changes.
3. Test MySQL Access:
   • Now try running the mysql command again:mysql -u root -p
   • It will prompt you for the MySQL root password. Enter the password you set during installation.
