How to expose MySQL logs to screen from mysqld?

  • 772

I'm running mysqld in command line in non-daemon mode, and want to see logs right here, instead of in files:

mysql --port=1234 --bind-address=localhost --datadir=./data

It works, but logs go to files. I want to see them right here. Is it possible?

mysql

    Start mysqld with the --general-log option, which it would cause it to display log messages on screen:

    mysql --port=1234 --bind-address=localhost --datadir=./data --general-log
