yum update
I get
Resolving dependencies .conflict between mysql and MySQL conflict between mysql-server and MySQL-server
This is not too surprising as the following shows.
rpm -q mysql-server MySQL-server mysql-client MySQL-client mysql MySQL mysql-server-3.23.49-3 package MySQL-server is not installed package mysql-client is not installed MySQL-client-3.23.43-1 mysql-3.23.49-3 MySQL-3.23.43-1
I have no idea how I managed to get both mysql and MySQL installed.
I'm guessing that what I have called mysql-server is now called MySQL-server.
mysql --version ###### gives mysql Ver 11.16 Distrib 3.23.49, for redhat-linux-gnu (i386)
The database server is running all the time.
I'm thinking I can rpm --erase MySQL but since it has programs common with mysql I'm concerned that I may lose what I'm currently using for mysql, and I don't seem to have that rpm.
The questions are:
1. Can I rpm --erase MySQL without wiping out mysql?
2. How can I get things set up so that yum thinks that names containing MySQL update packages with names containing mysql or alternatively, get the names on my system containing mysql have that part of the name replace with MySQL?
3. Am I hopelessly confused??
Many Thanks, Fred
