Disable ONLY_FULL_GROUP_BY

Question

I accidentally enabled ONLY_FULL_GROUP_BY mode like this:

SET sql_mode = \'ONLY_FULL_GROUP_BY\';

How do I disable it?

Answer 1

For Mac OS Mojave (10.14) Open terminal

$ sudo mkdir /usr/local/mysql-5.7.24-macos10.14-x86_64/etc
$ cd /usr/local/mysql-5.7.24-macos10.14-x86_64/etc
$ sudo nano my.cnf

Paste following:

[mysqld]
sql_mode=STRICT_TRANS_TABLES,NO_ZERO_IN_DATE,NO_ZERO_DATE,ERROR_FOR_DIVISION_BY_ZERO,NO_ENGINE_SUBSTITUTION

Shortkeys to Save & Exit nano: Ctrl+x and y and Enter

Note: You might need to update mysql-5.7.24-macos10.14-x86_64 in these commands, just check the correct folder name you got within /usr/local/

Hope it will help someone!
