Mysql Disable Safe Mode: Explained 2023

To disable safe mode in MySQL, you can follow these steps:

Connect to the MySQL server using the mysql command-line client:

mysql -u <username> -p

Replace <username> with your MySQL username. You will be prompted to enter your password.

Once connected to the MySQL server, you can disable safe mode by running the following SQL command:

SET GLOBAL sql_safe_updates=0;

This will disable safe mode for all connections to the MySQL server.

If you want to disable safe mode for a specific connection only, you can use the following command:Copy codeSET sql_safe_updates=0;

This will disable safe mode only for the current connection.

To enable safe mode again, you can use the following commands:

SET GLOBAL sql_safe_updates=1;  -- to enable safe mode for all connectionsSET sql_safe_updates=1;  -- to enable safe mode for the current connection only

By following these steps, you should be able to disable safe mode in MySQL.

Note: It is generally recommended to leave safe mode enabled to prevent accidental data loss when executing DELETE or UPDATE statements. It is also a good practice to use the WHERE clause to specify the rows that should be affected by these statements.
