本文记录Linux安装MySql过程。

检查是否已经安装MySql数据库。

如果有安装，先卸载已经安装的MySql数据库。
[root@master ~]# rpm -e mysql //普通删除模式 [root@master ~]# rpm -e --nodeps mysql //强力删除模式，如果使用上面命令删除时，提示有依赖的其它文件，则用该命令可以对其进行强力删除

To do so, start the server, then issue the following commands: /usr/bin/mysqladmin -u root password ‘new-password‘ /usr/bin/mysqladmin -u root -h master password ‘new-password‘ Alternatively you can run: /usr/bin/mysql_secure_installation which will also give you the option of removing the test databases and anonymous user created by default. This is strongly recommended for production servers. See the manual for more instructions. You can start the MySQL daemon with: cd /usr ; /usr/bin/mysqld_safe & You can test the MySQL daemon with mysql-test-run.pl cd /usr/mysql-test ; perl mysql-test-run.pl Please report any problems with the /usr/bin/mysqlbug script!
