Installation Error:

dyld: unknown required load command 0x80000022

I ran in to problems while I installed MySQL for Mac OS X 10.5. Ofcourse I missed the step one and paid for it.
It’s about MySQL binary’s version difference errors: “dyld: unknown required load command 0x80000022”.

Step 2: Download MySQL Installation (tar.gz) file from dev.mysql’s download section.
For example go to: http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/5.1.html

Select appropriate OS & version and get the exact download link from mirror:

cd /usr/local/
wget http://dev.mysql.com/get/Downloads/
MySQL-5.1/mysql-5.1.51-osx10.4-i686.tar.gz/from/http://mysql.mirror.rafal.ca/

Step 3: Create MySQL User and Group.

Through command line we can use NetInfo Utility as:
niutil -create / /groups/mysql
niutil -createprop / /groups/mysql gid 401
niutil -create / /users/mysql
niutil -createprop / /users/mysql gid 401
niutil -createprop / /users/mysql uid 401

Assign password to “mysql” user
passwd mysql

Step: 4 Installing MySQL using Generic Binaries
cd /usr/local
tar -xzvf mysql-VERSION-OS.tar.gz
ln -s full-path-to-mysql-VERSION-OS mysql
cd mysql
chown -R mysql .
chgrp -R mysql .
scripts/mysql_install_db --user=mysql
chown -R root .
chown -R mysql data
cp /usr/local/mysql/support-files/my-small.cnf /etc/my.cnf

Step: 5 Start MySQL Server:

bin/mysqld_safe –user=mysql &

This finishes basic installation of MySQL on Mac OS X. Make sure you follow “best practices” or “after installation steps” as recommended.
