I am running Mac OS 10.15.6 Catalina on my laptop and I have MySQL mysql-8.0.21-macos10.15-x8664 running. I installed mysql-8.0.21-macos10.15-x8664 through the DMG installer and I can start and stop MySQL with the preference pane in System Preferences. I want to store my MySQL data on an external hard disk and continue running MySQL.

Mysql Workbench Quit Unexpectedly Mac Catalina
Localhost install on MacOS Catalina (mac mini 2012) running Mac Apache & PHP 7.3.22 + Homebrew MySQL 8.0.21
Apache is running, MySQL is running (I have accessed via command line and checked my username, password, and Privileges). I have confirmed that wp-config.php contains the same info as the database itself reports. (which is the only clue given on the error page)
Yet I STILL get “error establishing database connection” when trying to install.
ps-ef | grep mysql shows mysql reporting its hostname as something odd that includes both the mac machine name plus the network or router name. Don’t know if that could be a clue?Any help would be appreciated

Hello @jredmond,
Could you please share the details of the error page or any error logs you might have?
In your wp-config.php file, is your DB_HOST set to localhost or the hostname reported by MySQL? Peavey deca 700 repair manual.
You’re welcome. Glad it’s fixed now.
