6.9 环境变量
This section lists environment variables that are used directly or indirectly by MySQL. Most of these can also be found in other places in this manual.
Options on the command line take precedence over values specified in option files and environment variables, and values in option files take precedence over values in environment variables. In many cases, it is preferable to use an option file instead of environment variables to modify the behavior of MySQL. See Section 6.2.2.2, “Using Option Files”.

Client plugins to preload. |
MYSQL_DEBUG |
Debug trace options when debugging. |
MYSQL_GROUP_SUFFIX |

MYSQL_HOST |
The default host name used by the mysql command-line client. |
MYSQL_PS1 |
The command prompt to use in the mysql command-line client. |
MYSQL_PWD |
The default password when connecting to mysqld. Using this is insecure. See note following table. |
MYSQL_TCP_PORT |
The default TCP/IP port number. |
MYSQL_TEST_LOGIN_FILE |
The name of the .mylogin.cnf login path file. |
MYSQL_TEST_TRACE_CRASH |
Whether the test protocol trace plugin crashes clients. See note following table. |
MYSQL_TEST_TRACE_DEBUG |
Whether the test protocol trace plugin produces output. See note following table. |
MYSQL_UNIX_PORT |
The default Unix socket file name; used for connections to localhost . |
MYSQLX_TCP_PORT |
The X Plugin default TCP/IP port number. |
MYSQLX_UNIX_PORT |
The X Plugin default Unix socket file name; used for connections to localhost . |
NOTIFY_SOCKET |
Socket used by mysqld to communicate with systemd. |
PATH |
Used by the shell to find MySQL programs. |
PKG_CONFIG_PATH |
Location of mysqlclient.pc pkg-config file. See note following table. |
TMPDIR |
The directory in which temporary files are created. |
TZ |
This should be set to your local time zone. See Section B.3.3.7, “Time Zone Problems”. |
UMASK |
The user-file creation mode when creating files. See note following table. |
UMASK_DIR |
The user-directory creation mode when creating directories. See note following table. |
USER |
The default user name on Windows when connecting to mysqld. |
For information about the mysql history file, see Section 6.5.1.3, “mysql Client Logging”.
Use of MYSQL_PWD
to specify a MySQL password must be considered extremely insecure and should not be used. Some versions of ps include an option to display the environment of running processes. On some systems, if you set MYSQL_PWD
, your password is exposed to any other user who runs ps. Even on systems without such a version of ps, it is unwise to assume that there are no other methods by which users can examine process environments.
MYSQL_PWD
is deprecated as of MySQL 8.4; expect it to be removed in a future version of MySQL.
MYSQL_TEST_LOGIN_FILE
is the path name of the login path file (the file created by mysql_config_editor). If not set, the default value is %APPDATA%\MySQL\.mylogin.cnf
directory on Windows and $HOME/.mylogin.cnf
on non-Windows systems. See Section 6.6.7, “mysql_config_editor — MySQL Configuration Utility”.
The MYSQL_TEST_TRACE_DEBUG
and MYSQL_TEST_TRACE_CRASH
variables control the test protocol trace client plugin, if MySQL is built with that plugin enabled. For more information, see Using the Test Protocol Trace Plugin.
The default UMASK
and UMASK_DIR
values are 0640
and 0750
, respectively. MySQL assumes that the value for UMASK
or UMASK_DIR
is in octal if it starts with a zero. For example, setting UMASK=0600
is equivalent to UMASK=384
because 0600 octal is 384 decimal.
The UMASK
and UMASK_DIR
variables, despite their names, are used as modes, not masks:
-
If
UMASK
is set, mysqld uses($UMASK | 0600)
as the mode for file creation, so that newly created files have a mode in the range from 0600 to 0666 (all values octal). -
If
UMASK_DIR
is set, mysqld uses($UMASK_DIR | 0700)
as the base mode for directory creation, which then is AND-ed with~(~$UMASK & 0666)
, so that newly created directories have a mode in the range from 0700 to 0777 (all values octal). The AND operation may remove read and write permissions from the directory mode, but not execute permissions.
See also Section B.3.3.1, “Problems with File Permissions”.
It may be necessary to set PKG_CONFIG_PATH
if you use pkg-config for building MySQL programs. See Building C API Client Programs Using pkg-config.
