<!-- Answer --> To perform a clean install of MySQL on Mac OSX and ensure the `merico` user has the correct permissions, follow these steps: 1. **Install MySQL:** ```sh brew install mysql ``` 2. **Start MySQL:** ```sh brew services start mysql ``` 3. **Secure MySQL Installation:** ```sh mysql_secure_installation ``` 4. **Log in to MySQL:** ```sh mysql -u root -p ``` 5. **Create the `merico` User and Grant Permissions:** ```sql CREATE USER 'merico'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'merico'; GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'merico'@'localhost' WITH GRANT OPTION; FLUSH PRIVILEGES; ``` 6. **Create the `lake` Database and Set Permissions:** ```sql CREATE DATABASE lake; GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON lake.* TO 'merico'@'localhost'; FLUSH PRIVILEGES; ``` 7. **Verify Permissions:** ```sh mysql -u merico -p -e "SHOW GRANTS FOR 'merico'@'localhost';" ``` After completing these steps, try running the `mysqldump` command again: ```sh mysqldump -u merico -p lake > db.sql ``` This should resolve the authentication errors and allow you to back up your MySQL database successfully <sup>[[1]](https://github.com/apache/incubator-devlake/blob/main/backend/scripts/docker/mysql/init-ds.sql)</sup>. <!-- Dosu Comment Footer --> *To continue talking to [Dosu](https://dosu.dev), mention @dosu.* -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
