If you want to log MySQL Queries log in to your mysql client and run:
mysql> SHOW VARIABLES LIKE "general_log%"; +------------------+-----------------------+ | Variable_name | Value | +------------------+-----------------------+ | general_log | ON | | general_log_file | /var/db/mysql/machine.log | +------------------+-----------------------+ 2 rows in set (0.00 sec) mysql> mysql> mysql> SET GLOBAL general_log = 'ON'; Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec) |
Then to see the queries as soon as they run do tail on the log.
tail -f /var/db/mysql/machine.log |
After you’ve seen the queries and you’ve completed the debug task it is a good practice do disable logging:
mysql> SET GLOBAL general_log = 'OFF'; Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.02 sec) |
