After upgrading an old install of I started getting errors connecting to the mac from windows visual studio 2012 on Win 7. So I uninstalled xamarin and rebooted. Performed normal install and then installer stopped with errors. Log file shows `Info MSI (s) (60:F8) 14:38:18:228: Product: Xamarin Studio 4.2.2 - Installation failed.
macOS is based on the FreeBSD operating system, and you can normally use the MySQL network port for connecting to MySQL servers on other hosts. Installing the Connector/ODBC driver lets you connect to MySQL databases on any platform through the ODBC interface. If your application requires an ODBC interface, install the Connector/ODBC driver. Applications that require or can use ODBC (and therefore the Connector/ODBC driver) include ColdFusion, Filemaker Pro, 4th Dimension and many other applications.
On macOS, the ODBC Administrator, based on the
iODBC
manager, provides easy administration of ODBC drivers and configuration, allowing the updates of the underlying iODBC
configuration files through a GUI tool. The tool is included in macOS v10.5 and earlier; users of later versions of macOS need to download it from http://www.iodbc.org/dataspace/doc/iodbc/wiki/iodbcWiki/Downloads and install it manually. OpenSSL is a required dependency. The macOS installation binaries bundle OpenSSL, while the compressed tar archives do not and require that you install OpenSSL on your system before the installation process.
There are two ways to install Connector/ODBC on macOS. You can use either the package provided in a compressed tar archive that you manually install, or use a compressed disk image (
.dmg
) file, which includes an installer. To install using the compressed tar archive (some of the steps below might require superuser privileges):
- Download the compressed tar archive.
- Extract the archive:
- The directory created contains two subdirectories,
lib
andbin
. Copy these to a suitable location such as/usr/local
: - Finally, register the driver with iODBC using the myodbc-installer tool that was included in the package:For Connector/ODBC 8.0:For Connector/ODBC 5.3:
To install using the a compressed disk image (
.dmg
) file: For Connector/ODBC 5.3.7 and later, iODBC 3.52.12 or later must be installed on the macOS system before you can install Connector/ODBC using a compressed disk image. See the discussion above on iODBC.
- Download the disk image.
- Double click the disk image to open it. You see the Connector/ODBC installer inside.
- Double click the Connector/ODBC installer, and you will be guided through the rest of the installation process. You need superuser privileges to finish the installation.
To verify the installed drivers, either use the ODBC Administrator application or the myodbc-installer utility:
hello everyone ,
i just got a 2015 macbook air passed down from my brother so i erased hos hard disk and created a new one in my name. now i am trying to reinstall the macos and it keeps saying installation failed and to try running the application again which I have done a couple times now. I tried one time and on the installer log, it says chunk download failed.
Now one big problem is that there is no os on the computer. Rebooting takes me straight to internet recovery
I have also tried erasing the disk, it doesn’t erase, it gives an error there too. What should I do ?
