is there a reason why mysql-server is not in the base?
RH doesn't included it in base. Only with the ES and AS lines. And then it's not installed by default. As shipped CentOS only installs a mysql client.
yum install mysql-server should get you the "missing" rpm installed.
If not please provide more info....what version of centos and which arch.
Thanks,
