Install MariaDB using yum under Centos

Reference: https://mariadb.com/kb/zh-cn/installing-mariadb-with-yum/

The first thing to create MariaDB Repositories ( MariaDB installation source ) is/etc/yum.repos.d/ to create a MariaDB.repo file under . The content depends on the version and can be generated through the source generator : https://downloads.mariadb.org/mariadb/repositories/

For example, the content of the file under centos6.x is:

# MariaDB 10.1 CentOS repository list - created 2016-05-13 10:03 UTC
# http://mariadb.org/mariadb/repositories/
[mariadb]
name = MariaDB
baseurl = http://yum.mariadb.org/10.1/centos6-amd64
gpgkey=https://yum.mariadb.org/RPM-GPG-KEY-MariaDB
gpgcheck=1

After saving the file execute:

sudo yum install MariaDB-server MariaDB-client

The installation begins.

 

After the installation is complete, start MariaDB with the command:

sudo /etc/init.d/mysql start

 

Because the root password after installation is empty, you need to set and modify the root password: 

mysqladmin -u root password 'root'
