在一测试服务器(CentOS Linux release 7.2.1511)上安装MySQL 5.6(5.6.19 MySQL Community Server)时遇到下面错误，这个是因为CentOS 7的默认数据库已经不再是MySQL了，而是MariaDB. MySQL安装时的mysql lib库与mariadb的库、包冲突了，如下详情所示(省略了大量日志)

检查是否存在mariadb的相关组件,然后删除mariadb相关组件。如下所示：

[root@azrlnx06 mysql]# more /etc/redhat-releaseCentOS Linux release 7.2.1511 (Core)[root@azrlnx06 mysql]# rpm -qa |grep mariadbmariadb-libs-5.5.50-1.el7_2.x86_64[root@azrlnx06 mysql]# rpm -e mariadb-libs-5.5.50-1.el7_2.x86_64error: Failed dependencies:libmysqlclient.so.18()(64bit) is needed by (installed) postfix-2:2.10.1-6.el7.x86_64libmysqlclient.so.18(libmysqlclient_18)(64bit) is needed by (installed) postfix-2:2.10.1-6.el7.x86_64[root@azrlnx06 mysql]# rpm -e mariadb-libs-5.5.50-1.el7_2.x86_64 --nodeps

当然此处删除mariadb-libs-5.5.50-1.el7_2.x86_64组件时遇到依赖错误，遂强制删除该组件，最好使用yum删除mariadb相关组件。然后重新安装MySQL时遇到"error: MySQL-server-advanced-5.6.20-1.rhel5.x86_64: install failed"错误，如下所示：

[root@azrlnx06 mysql]# cd /tmp[root@azrlnx06 tmp]# lshsperfdata_azrlnx06  jirasetup  MySQL-server-advanced-5.6.20-1.rhel5.x86_64.rpm[root@azrlnx06 tmp]# rpm -ivh MySQL-server-advanced-5.6.20-1.rhel5.x86_64.rpmPreparing...                          ################################# [100%]Updating / installing...1:MySQL-server-advanced-5.6.20-1.rh################################# [100%]error: unpacking of archive failed on file /usr/bin/innochecksum;582535c8: cpio: read failed - No such file or directoryerror: MySQL-server-advanced-5.6.20-1.rhel5.x86_64: install failed[root@azrlnx06 tmp]#

对这个错误有点莫名其妙，卸载MySQL相关组件后，重新安装MySQL，发现缺少Perl相关模组。如下所示：

[root@azrlnx06 jirasetup]# rpm -ivh MySQL-server-advanced-5.6.20-1.rhel5.x86_64.rpmPreparing...                          ################################# [100%]Updating / installing...1:MySQL-server-advanced-5.6.20-1.rh################################# [100%]FATAL ERROR: please install the following Perl modules before executing /usr/bin/mysql_install_db:Data::Dumper[root@azrlnx06 jirasetup]#

使用yum安装了 perl perl-devel相关包(注意：此处安装MySQL时，没有输出安装相关Detail的信息，是因为Perl相关模组没有安装的缘故，此处还漏掉了安装perl-Data-Dumper)

[root@azrlnx06 jirasetup]# yum install -y perl perl-devel

安装完Perl相关组件后，重新安装MySQL，如下所示，安装成功，但是没有输出安装相关Detail的信息(因为没有安装perl-Data-Dumper)，启动MySQL报错

找到MySQL的错误日志，然后检查/var/lib/mysql/azrlnx06.err错误日志，发现如下错误信息：

搜索了一些相关资料，应该是perl-Data-Dumper模组没有安装，导致安装过程中，初始化数据库失败，所以启动MySQL服务时，找不到相关系统表。具体参考官方文档MySQL-server RPM does not install perl-Data-Dumper as a dependency

Description:

MySQL-server requires perl-Data-Dumper to function. However, perl-Data-Dumper is not listed by the MySQL-server RPM as a dependency. So if a linux server does not have perl-Data-Dumper installed, the install-mysql-db will fail. And because of missing the initial database, the mysql service could not be started.

How to repeat:

On a linux server, make sure there is no perl-Data-Dumper installed. Install MySQL-server using yum. There should be error message complaining database could not be created.

Suggested fix:

Add perl-Data-Dumper as a dependency of the RPM package

解决方法：

1：安装perl-Data-Dumper模组。

[root@azrlnx06 mysql]# yum install -y perl-Data-Dumper

2：初始化数据库

[root@azrlnx06 mysql]# sudo mysql_install_db --user=mysql --basedir=/usr/ --ldata=/var/lib/mysql/

[root@azrlnx06 mysql]# service mysql startStarting MySQL. SUCCESS![root@azrlnx06 mysql]# /usr//bin/mysqladmin -u root password 'Qwe!23'Warning: Using a password on the command line interface can be insecure.

当然也可以卸载MySQL，然后重新安装，就能看到安装过程输出的Detail信息输出了。
