Question

I have to make LAravel app and to deliver a Dockerfile ,but I\'m really stuck with this. Before that I had a nightmare wile installing laravel on m

Answer 1

I had the same problem and

sudo netstat -nlpt |grep 3306

showed me the PID and which service it was started by (mysgld). Whenever I tried to kill the PID then it was started again. But the problem was fixed when I stopped the service by

sudo service mysql stop

Notice that you will have to use mysql and not mysqld.

I hope that this will do it for you - I was able to run docker-compose up without any problems
