MySQL

Kythia Workspace provides an automated, seamlessly integrated MySQL environment.

  1. Go to Databases -> MySQL
  2. Select a version from the dropdown menu and click Install
  3. Kythia will download the official MySQL binaries directly to your local environment.

By default, MySQL is configured to run on your localhost without conflict.

Field Value
Host 127.0.0.1
Port 3306
Username root
Password (empty)

Kythia manages basic configurations for you automatically. If you need to make advanced changes, the configuration files for MySQL are located at:

C:\kythia\bin\mysql\{version}\conf\

Data files (where your actual database records live) are stored safely at:

C:\kythia\data\mysql\

Log files are extremely useful for debugging failed queries or startup issues. They are located at:

C:\kythia\bin\mysql\{version}\logs\

You can also view the logs in real-time directly via the Logs button in the Kythia UI.
