Key Process and Cause Analysis

CMake has been executed in the root directory of the code, and CmakeCache.txt has been generated in the root directory. As a result, the preceding message is displayed during MySQL compilation and installation.

Conclusion and Solution

Delete CmakeCache.txt and perform compilation again.

1. Go to the /home/mysql-5.7.27 directory and delete the cmakeCache.txt file.

   cd /home/mysql-5.7.27
   rm cmakeCache.txt

2. Run the following cmake command:

   1

   cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local/mysql -DMYSQL_DATADIR=/data/mysql -DSYSCONFDIR=/etc -DWITH_INNOBASE_STORAGE_ENGINE=1 -DWITH_PARTITION_STORAGE_ENGINE=1 -DWITH_FEDERATED_STORAGE_ENGINE=1 -DWITH_BLACKHOLE_STORAGE_ENGINE=1 -DWITH_MYISAM_STORAGE_ENGINE=1 -DENABLED_LOCAL_INFILE=1 -DENABLE_DTRACE=0 -DDEFAULT_CHARSET=utf8mb4 -DDEFAULT_COLLATION=utf8mb4_general_ci -DWITH_EMBEDDED_SERVER=1 -DDOWNLOAD_BOOST=1 -DWITH_BOOST=/home/mysql-5.7.27/boost/boost_1_59_0
