Topic: MariaDB on CentOS 6.5

==== Required information ====
- iRedMail version: Latest
- Store mail accounts in which backend (LDAP/MySQL/PGSQL): 10.0.11-MariaDB-wsrep MariaDB Server, wsrep_25.10.r3991
- Linux/BSD distribution name and version: CentOS 6.5/x86
- Related log if you're reporting an issue:
====

Just wanted to let you guys know that I was able to get MariaDB to work instead of MySQL under CentOS 6.5.  The key is installing MariaDB BEFORE running the iRedmail.sh installation script.

Re: MariaDB on CentOS 6.5

Which yum repository did you use? As i can remember, CentOS doesn't provide MariaDB in official yum repo.

Re: MariaDB on CentOS 6.5

Hi,

If you allow me..Mariadb will never be included. Their yum repo for centos is : (can be obtained for each flavor from the mariadb repo config page)
create file in yum.,repos.d named maria.repo with :

# MariaDB 10.0 CentOS repository list - created 2014-06-25 15:51 UTC
# http://mariadb.org/mariadb/repositories/
[mariadb]
name = MariaDB
baseurl = http://yum.mariadb.org/10.0/centos6-amd64
gpgkey=https://yum.mariadb.org/RPM-GPG-KEY-MariaDB
gpgcheck=1

i hope soon we can use mariadb for any flavor ?

thanks,

Re: MariaDB on CentOS 6.5

HI,

Just small additional info (so happy i could get rid of mysql)

Indeed install mariadb before launching  iredmail.sh but also do not forget to first issue service mysql start as iredmail installer expects mysql server to be running. after that it all goes wonderfully smile (i am running openldap with mariadb

regards,
