#1055 – Expression of SELECT list is not in GROUP BY clause and contains nonaggregated column this is incompatible with sql_mode=only_full_group_by

I had a struggle getting this to work i’ve tested it and it’s working on lamp server mysql version 5.12

So, steps to success:

  1. sudo vim /etc/mysql/conf.d/mysql.cnf
  2. Scroll to the bottom of file Copy and paste

    [mysqld]
    sql_mode=STRICT_TRANS_TABLES,NO_ZERO_IN_DATE,NO_ZERO_DATE,ERROR_FOR_DIVISION_BY_ZERO,NO_AUTO_CREATE_USER,NO_ENGINE_SUBSTITUTION

to the bottom of the file

  1. save and exit input mode
  2. sudo service mysql restart to restart MySQL.

Done!
