But following error was thrown

Yum says its not able to find the package “mysql-server” in any of the available yum repositories. In order to fix this, we need to install the mysql yum repositories. Let us see how to do it.

 

How to enable mysql yum repository on Centos 6/7 ?

 

On Centos7, using

 

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9

[root@eb2476e8763c /]# rpm -ivh https://repo.mysql.com//mysql57-community-release-el7-11.noarch.rpm Retrieving https://repo.mysql.com//mysql57-community-release-el7-11.noarch.rpm warning: /var/tmp/rpm–tmp.7OOdD1: Header V3 DSA/SHA1 Signature, key ID 5072e1f5: NOKEY Preparing... ################################# [100%] Updating / installing... 1:mysql57–community–release–el7–11 ################################# [100%] [root@eb2476e8763c /]#

 

For Centos 6

[root@eb2476e8763c /]# rpm -ivh https://repo.mysql.com//mysql57-community-release-el6-11.noarch.rpm Retrieving https://repo.mysql.com//mysql57-community-release-el6-11.noarch.rpm warning: /var/tmp/rpm–tmp.TWlyW7: Header V3 DSA/SHA1 Signature, key ID 5072e1f5: NOKEY Preparing... ################################# [100%] Updating / installing... 1:mysql57–community–release–el6–11 ################################# [100%]

 

Now we can install mysql-server using yum

 

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31

As you can see, mysql server and client packages are installed.

 

To start mysql service,

 

On centos7

 

1	systemctl start mysql

 

On Centos6

 

1	service mysqld start

 

Verify “mysql-server” is listening on port 3306 , using

 

1 2	# netstat -nap |grep 3306 tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:3306 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 9782/mysqld

 

Now you can connect to mysql-server using “mysql” client

 

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14
