Hi Folks,

I've just done my first two Centos installs, having moved over from WB..er..never mind.

I seem to be stuck with mysql - it's not installing; well, on one system it starts but there's no /var/lib/mysql folder or socket file and on the other, mysql just doesn't seem to be there at all.

I have done a 'yum remove mysql' and then a 'yum install mysql' on the first system and it's not helped!

Can anyone point me in the right direction to put this right.

Thanks.

NK
