[Maria-discuss] New Question: I would love to switch to MariaDB, but over the last year I've tried installing it twice on different versions of Mac OSX and failed.

8 Nov 2015

      Hello,

A new question has been asked in "Downloads" by 7stud. Please answer it at http://mariadb.com/kb/en/i-would-love-to-switch-to-mariadb-but-over-the-last... as the person asking the question may not be subscribed to the mailing list.

--------------------------------
I don't use Homebrew because it causes more problems than installing from source.  So I followed the Generic Build instructions:

https://mariadb.com/kb/en/mariadb/generic-build-instructions/

And here were my results trying to install on Mac OSX 10.10.2 with Xcode 6.3.2:

$ cmake --version
cmake version 3.4.0-rc3

CMake suite maintained and supported by Kitware (kitware.com/cmake).

$ cmake . -DBUILD_CONFIG=mysql_release

$ make --version
