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

This is a permanent solution for MySql 5.7+ on Ubuntu 14+:

$ sudo bash -c "echo -e \"\nsql_mode=IGNORE_SPACE,NO_ZERO_IN_DATE,NO_ZERO_DATE,ERROR_FOR_DIVISION_BY_ZERO,NO_AUTO_CREATE_USER,NO_ENGINE_SUBSTITUTION\"  >> /etc/mysql/mysql.conf.d/mysqld.cnf"
$ sudo service mysql restart
# Check if login attempt throws any errors
$ mysql -u[user] -p # replace [user] with your own user name

If you are able to login without errors - you should be all set now.
