How to install mysql On amazon EC2 with yum

liangkaiping0 2016-05-27


if you use the common command :

# yum  install mysql mysql-server mysql-libs


then start the mysql server :

# service mysqld start


you will see :

Redirecting to /bin/systemctl start  mysqld.service

Failed to start mysqld.service: Unit mysqld.service failed to load: No such file or directory.


here are two problems , one is the service command is not correct and should use the systemctl one , the other one is that the mysql seems not install and the direcotry is not existed.


Then I google and found this page :

http://serverfault.com/questions/662741/yum-no-package-mysql-server-available-in-cent-os-7


It is said:

In RHEL 7, and consequently in CentOS7, the mysql- packages (or most of them, anyway) have been replaced with mariadb- packages due to an upstream rename/fork. Simply

#yum install mariadb-server mariadb-libs mariadb

and you should be okay - the command names themselves are still mostly mysql related.


RHEL/CentOS 7 use the systemctl suite, not the service suite. So yes, you'll be using mariadb as the name, but the command will be:

#systemctl start mariadb.service
