I've just installed Mongodb by following the instructions on the link below.
Everything went fine and no errors. However, when trying to run Mongodb (by typing 'Mongod' or 'Mongo') I get the following error: mongod: command not found. What can be wrong?
I have tried to install it once again but I get a message that it's already installed.
The Instructions that I followed (Mac OSX).
Did you add the folder where mongod resides in to the path?
Try to cd into the folder and execute mongod directly with
./mongod
This sounds like a PATH issue to me. The installation on Mac OSX may not automatically add MongoDB to the system PATH (a list of programs that can be run from any directory).
Check out the comment below in that article m o l a r o's comment refers to specific PATH issues in Mac OSX http://www.mongodb.org/display/DOCS/Quickstart+OS+X#comment-78182225.

Today I updated my mac to macOS Big Sur and I can't open XAMPP. When I click on app it doesn't give any response.
Do you know how solve this problem?
You can do a clean installation, but you will lose all your old files and databases. I suggest making a backup of this data.
Uninstall old versions of xampp.
Installation of Xampp by the brew
brew install --cask xampp
If you don't have the brew installed
/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"
HomeBrew
After Big Sur installation if XAMPP is not opening, get newest version of XAMPP (7.4.12) from their web site.
If you end up with error "Error starting “XAMPP” stack: cannot calculate MAC address: signal killed". After installing the latest version, do following:
Go to terminal ->
cd ~/.bitnami/stackman/helpers
Mv hyperkit hyperkit_backup
After that XAMPP opens and tells its the first time opening, but at least I found all the files etc as before Big Sur upgrade.
Install XAMPP 7.4.12, works perfectly in MacOS Big Sur
I had Xampp 7.4.9 and update Mac OS to Big Sur. Xampp didn't want to launch after that. I lost access to all my projects inside of /htdocs folder hidden somewhere in path structure of my virtual machine.
Kindly note I used version 7.4.9-VM (not 7.4.9-Installer) that is why all my files blocked inside of
/Users/'your_user_name'/.bitnami/stackman/machines/xampp/vm/machine.qcow2
Actually all files are important here:
/Users/'your_user_name'/.bitnami/stackman/machines/xampp
not only machine.qcow2
My solution is kind a mix of before mentioned solutions because they didn’t help in full.
First of all make a backup - copy old structure (with blocked files) to some directory - all this structure:
/Users/'your_user_name'/.bitnami/stackman/machines/xampp
(To see hidden files in MacOS use [Command]+[Shift]+[.])
You also can just rename
/Users/'your_user_name'/.bitnami/
to something like
/Users/'your_user_name'/.my_blocked_files_bitnami/
As programmers here advised to install 7.4.12-VM I installed this version. Very important to install "Virtual Machine" version (as you can see there are 2 installers for each version of Xampp)
Right after I launched 7.4.12-VM the new directory was created here:
/Users/'your_user_name'/.bitnami/
and Xampp will work properly but with no your old projects.
Do not do this step: As programmers here advised to change only one file
/Users/'your_user_name'/.bitnami/stackman/machines/xampp/vm/machine.qcow2
for me it was not enough - Xampp failed with an error:
ERROR: Error starting "XAMPP" stack: cannot start stack: ssh not accessible
My solution was put whole structure from folder xampp
/Users/'your_user_name'/.my_blocked_files_bitnami/stackman/machines/xampp
to here:
/Users/'your_user_name'/.bitnami/stackman/machines/xampp
You may before rename your current folder
/Users/'your_user_name'/.bitnami/stackman/machines/xampp
to something like
/Users/'your_user_name'/.bitnami/stackman/machines/new_xampp_without_my_projects
Then launch Xampp (Xampp should say something about incopatible versions but allows to continue), start all services, mount the disk. press "Expore" and you should see all your old projects.
Thank you.
You can solve this problem by updating xampp ver 7.2.34 .

Same thing happened to me but the version 7.4.12 seems to be working. I download it from the link I'll but below. I've been reading and the problem seems to be that Big Sur changes some paths that are set by default and so the apps won't launch. Same thing happened to Apache NetBeans.
XAMPP Download Link:
(https://sourceforge.net/projects/xampp/files/XAMPP%20Mac%20OS%20X/7.4.12/)
I had the same problem. This is how I solved it:
First, be sure that you back up your files in XAMPP VM. Your files are in
/Users/'your_user_name'/.bitnami/stackman/machines/xampp/vm/machine.qcow2
Then you can reinstall XAMPP again. I have installed 7.4.12 and it worked fine.
If you see stack error message, this is what you have to do:
Close XAMPP
Open a terminal and remove the stack folder with the following code:
rm -rf ~/.bitnami/stackman
Open XAMPP and check if a new stackman folder is created.
/Users/'your_user_name'/.bitnami/stackman/
If it does not, then start XAPP and stop again. When the stackman folder is created, override the file below with your backup file.
/Users/'your_user_name'/.bitnami/stackman/machines/xampp/vm/machine.qcow2
Close XAMPP again and restart again.
Voila! Here are your files...
I tried reinstalling XAMPP on MACos Big Sur, and it worked. However, my files are not recovered.
you can type this code in terminal
before this code you should close xampp
rm -rf ~/.bitnami/stackman
if you are getting error message saying:
Cannot calculate MAC Address: Using fd 10 for I/O notifications hv_vm_create HV_ERROR (unspecified error)
you need to download new hyperkit from bitnami and replace the current one
cd /tmp
curl -LJO "https://downloads.bitnami.com/files/hyperkit/hyperkit-testing-`20210430"`
mv /tmp/hyperkit-testing-20210430 ~/.bitnami/stackman/helpers/hyperkit
chmod +x ~/.bitnami/stackman/helpers/hyperkit

I am running MacOS Mojave 10.14 with XAMPP 7.2.5
Earlier today, I tried to start up XAMPP after a crash/restart. XAMPP Manager was unable to start the MYSQL Server. Apache did start correctly.
Figuring there was a potential corruption, I used my Time Machine to restore my XAMPP folder (to a 36-hour old file) in Applications.
Now when I try to run XAMPP Manager, I get a "Cannot find any readable ctl script" error message.
I've tried to run MYSQL Server directly from CLI. I receive the following message:
./mysql.server: line 200: my_print_defaults: command not found
Starting MariaDB
ERROR! Couldn't find MariaDB server (/Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/bin/mysqld_safe)
Any thoughts on how to resolve?
The issue has to do with a quirk with Time Machine - it does not completely regenerate all recorded folders/files. A bit of a pain.
I was able to run XAMPP from the command line:
-> cd /Applications/xampp/xamppfiles
-> sudo ./xampp start
To check on MYSQL status:
-> mysql status -u [username] -p [password]
Issue resolved
I spend a day on this and the solution in my case was:
Uninstall XAMPP
Delete all files except my databases folders from Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/var/mysql (there was some .err and log files if I remember well)
Reinstall XAMPP
Reconfigure it. If you use different user than root to access your databases you need to recreate it.
I got the "Cannot find any readable ctl script" error after a Time Machine restoration, too. I'm on 10.12.6 and XAMPP 5.6.
You are correct that it appears to be a TM issue, but I was able to resolve it by entering TM and specifically selecting the directories in XAMPP/xamppfiles/ that TM would not copy over by just selecting XAMPP/xamppfiles/. (In your case, you would not want to copy over /var/mysql, assuming you want to keep your data.)
Relief. There's nothing worse than realizing your trusty backup is not so trusty.
I recently installed XAMPP-VM on my Mac. I am encountering a problem whenever I click Start in the General tab. Log tab shows that...
INFO: Starting "XAMPP" stack
ERROR: Error starting "XAMPP" stack: cannot calculate MAC address: signal: killed
As an individual who is not knowledgeable of such error, could someone explain what this error means and how to fix it?
I had the same problem and fixed it.
You have to close xampp, then type on your terminal:
rm -rf ~/.bitnami/stackman
And open xampp again.
Hope it works for you :) .
Make sure you have these requirements to use XAMPP-VM platform:
OS X 10.10.3 Yosemite or later
a 2010 or later Mac (i.e. a CPU that supports EPT)
UPDATE:
Unfortunately you can not use XAMPP-VM if you don't have this requirements but you can use the regular OS X native installer available at https://www.apachefriends.org/download.html
For people using Apple silicon chips, using installer.dmg instead of vm.dmg works.
For example, I used the following link for version 8.4.1:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/xampp/files/XAMPP%20Mac%20OS%20X/8.1.4/xampp-osx-8.1.4-0-installer.dmg/download
Hitting the same error. However, I pressed start after a while it works. lol...
Running Mac OS 10.12.6 (16G29) and XAMPP 7.2.0
Anyone is still facing the issue of macOS Big Sur. Below I have attached few commands please follow the same.
Important: Make sure to take the backup of the working projects manually.
#create a backup of your contents inside htdocs
cp -rp ~/.bitnami ~/.bitnami.back
#note: this command enters tmp folder if you are in Users/ directory
cd ../../tmp
#installs hyper kit
curl -LJO "https://downloads.bitnami.com/files/hyperkit/hyperkit-testing-20210430"
#Check the hash
md5 /tmp/hyperkit-testing-20210430
#move the hyper kit
mv /tmp/hyperkit-testing-20210430 ~/.bitnami/stackman/helpers/hyperkit
#give permission for hyper kit
chmod +x ~/.bitnami/stackman/helpers/hyperkit
Also I have attached the video link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FfQHNQTj28c
Another solution for Big Sur (probably works up to, but not including, Ventura) if you are trying to get the contents of your VM working as well.
Rename the current .bitnami/stackman folder to something else like stackman_old
Open up the Bitnami VM and it should rebuild the stackman folder and reassign a new localhost IP address.
Make sure that VM works by starting it up and checking it's all green
If good, quit the VM again
Move the stackman_old/machines/xampp/ssh folder into the same place into the new stackman folder.
Move the stackman_old/machines/xampp/vm folder into the same place into the new stackman folder.
After doing these two folder replacements, open up the VM again and it should start up fine, just will have the new IP address so if you are referencing that ip in your etc/hosts file, you'll have to update those so it's pointing to the right place.
Hopefully this helps someone!
Trying to install Glassfish(Java EE App. Server) and Wildfly App Server using Homebrew .
http://macappstore.org/wildfly-as/
http://macappstore.org/glassfish/
used these above mentioned tutorials .
I got the following errors while trying to run them by typing just "glassfish" & "wildfly-as" respectively.
Output(Error):
-bash: glassfish: command not found
-bash: wildfly-as: command not found
Searched about it and I think it has something to do with $PATH. I don't understand $PATH Variable . Need help.
The issue is that there are two asadmin scripts. One at $GLASSFISH_HOME/bin and one at $GLASSFISH_HOME/glassfish/bin
Here are full instructions to get your domain up
brew update
brew install glassfish
you should see message, add that line to your .bash_profile
==> Caveats
You may want to add the following to your .bash_profile:
export GLASSFISH_HOME=/usr/local/opt/glassfish/libexec
Open a new terminal then, cd $GLASSFISH_HOME/glassfish/bin
./asadmin start-domain --verbose
Browse to http://localhost:8080 for welcome page and http://localhost:4848 for admin console
I actually installed Wildfly-Application Server using homebrew but could not find a way to run it.
https://tomylab.wordpress.com/2016/07/03/how-to-install-wildfly-on-mac/
This tutorial helped me .
And for glassfish, my installation was again successful using homebrew but was not able to run it . I did figure it out when I ran the following commands.
$ cd /usr/local/opt/glassfish/libexec/bin
$ ./asadmin
asadmin> start-domain
You need to understand about the PATH variable. It is an environment variable on Unix-like operating systems, specifying a set of directories in which executable programs are located. In general, each executing process, or user session, has its own PATH setting.
So, you need to add the glassfish home path to your actual path variable.
Now, as per your problem with running the Glassfish server; try this:
export GLASSFISH_HOME=/usr/local/opt/glassfish/libexec/
export PATH=$PATH:$GLASSFISH_HOME/bin
Add it to your bash profile, if you do not want to do this everytime.
On Mac Server OSX 10.9.5 running Postgres 9.3.4
I'm trying to run a crosstab query, but was getting
ERROR: function crosstab(unknown, unknown) does not exist
so, I tried to install tablefunc, but now getting:
postgres=# CREATE EXTENSION tablefunc;
ERROR: could not open extension control file
"/Applications/Server.app/Contents/ServerRoot/usr/share/postgresql/extension/tablefunc.control": No such file or directory
So, looks like some search path somewhere is screwed up.
Any ideas how to fix?
EDIT: This obviously has to do with having two Postgres instances on the machine, at
/Applications/Server.app/Contents/ServerRoot/usr/bin/psql
and
/Library/PostgreSQL/9.3/bin/psql
And currently only the /Library version has tablefunc.control underneath it. So the first question is - should I try to switch which instance of Postgres the machine uses? Or should I try to install tablefunc into the /Server.app instance?
This problem disappeared magically after I upgraded to Yosemite
