Hello all, newbie here I am having lots of trouble trying to install MySQL on Centos7 and have spend lots of time on it, but still stuck.
I am currently following this tutorial.
https://www.rosehosting.com/blog/how-to ... -centos-7/
Commands used, step by step:
wget https://dev.mysql.com/get/mysql80-commu ... noarch.rpm
sudo rpm -Uvh mysql80-community-release-el7-1.noarch.rpm
sudo yum install mysql-community-server <- this is where I am stuck.
Error when running, sudo yum install mysql-community-server.
I have tried navigating to http://repo.mysql.com/yum/mysql-connect ... repomd.xml and found out that i doesn't exist.
I tried checking the /etc/yum.repos.d/mysql-community.repo
What i have found out:
I have found out that http://repo.mysql.com/yum/mysql-connect ... nity/el/7/ with out the "$basearch" is a working link and it does link me to a server with files. I was thinking on changing the baseurl but have yet to try it as i dont know which is which and which files are they suppose to download.
Please help, banging my head on the wall.
MySQL baseurl broken?
Re: MySQL baseurl broken?
We do not ship or support mysql. What we ship as part of the distro is the fork of mysql called mariadb. That fork is by the original mysql authors who forked it after Oracle bought Sun (who in turn had bought mysql).
The correct way to get the equivalent of mysql server installed on CentOS 7 is to undo all that stuff with mysql-community and just run yum install mariadb-server

The future appears to be RHEL or Debian. I think I'm going Debian.
