MAMP -how to update mySQL version
I user WooCommerce for my client site and the plug-in require mySQL version from 5.6
mySQL version is kept updating, but still the version is remained as 5.5.42 in MAMP environment.
As per MAMP official blog:
“Although MySQL 5.6 has been available since 2011 its market share is still much smaller than that of its older brother MySQL 5.5. That is why MAMP 3 and MAMP PRO 3 still bundle v5.5.”
But, this article is 2015 JUL, and still MAMP has default SQL version 5.5.42 I tried to several way to update mySQL version, but the most simple way is: just follow the steps of MAMP official blog link in below.
