I'm currently trying to install Redmine on a machine running the latest Amazon Linux.
One of the first steps I'm told to do is to install MySQL server using the command sudo yum install mysql-server.
However when I run this I am getting the following error output:
Error: Package: mysql-community-server-5.7.18-1.el7.x86_64 (mysql57-community)
Requires: systemd
You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest
I try installing systemd:
sudo yum install systemd
But no dice:
Loaded plugins: priorities, update-motd, upgrade-helper
7 packages excluded due to repository priority protections
No package systemd available.
Error: Nothing to do
I see online that Amazon Linux doesn't use/support systemd. But I can't find an answer anywhere telling me how to install MySQL server.
This is all the information about the machine itself:
NAME="Amazon Linux AMI"
VERSION="2017.03"
ID="amzn"
ID_LIKE="rhel fedora"
VERSION_ID="2017.03"
PRETTY_NAME="Amazon Linux AMI 2017.03"
ANSI_COLOR="0;33"
CPE_NAME="cpe:/o:amazon:linux:2017.03:ga"
HOME_URL="http://aws.amazon.com/amazon-linux-ami/"
Amazon Linux AMI release 2017.03
Is anyone able to help with this?
