How to disable strict mode in mysql
I have spent hours trying to figure this out but am seriously stuck. I installed the latest version of mysql today and some things in my website broke. I believe it has to do with strict settings, IGNORE_SPACE,NO_ZERO_IN_DA
I am trying to disable strict mode just to get my site working but it seems impossible. I have tried this in terminal but no luck.
sudo vim /etc/mysql/conf.d/disable_
[mysqld]
sql_mode="IGNORE_SPACE,NO_
Please help!

Sorry, I forgot to mention that I am using MAMP so not sure I can use this
mysql -e "SELECT @@sql_mode;"ASKER
And the problem is that I can't find a .cnf file!

That file doesn't exist. The only folder I could find was etc. In the etc folder I create my.cnf
I put this in the file:
I stopped MAMP, closed it, reopened it, restarted the servers and it didn't fix my problem :(

Can you believe it. All I had to do was create a new line and it works. Seriously...
[mysqld]

Thanks so much to both of you
I'm happy to hear you got it working, but...
>>> That file doesn't exist. The only folder I could find was etc. In the etc folder I create my.cnf
While that is a valid approach, you should know that you could be removing other valid configuration points in the existing .cnf file. You should go back and try to locate the file being used.
If you run `mysqld --verbose --help`, you should see a snippet near the top explaining which files the server will look for as it starts:
Search explicitly for those files to see which exist. If you still can't locate it, you can try a last ditch effort with find:

I found this related to mamp but not sure if it will help. Seems like you are meant to create your own file with MAMP?

Based on that article, it looks to be entirely possible that you're running on straight-up defaults from mysqld. You only returned two reasonable candidates for an existing cnf file, and one of them is in a tmp directory. You're probably good to go. Just keep this in mind if you discover any odd behavior.

For sure. If something weird happens then the cnf file I created will be the first thing I will go back to.
backup your cnf file
edit cnf file like this
sql_mode=""
then restart mysql
/etc/init.d/mysql restart
verify
mysql -e "SELECT @@sql_mode;"
it should work
Thanks and Regards,
