Hi Asma, It looks from this error that there is an existing 5.1 installation present.
As well as RPM packages (which can be downloaded from http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/5.6.html), there is also a yum repo for Enterprise Linux 6. It is available here: http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/repo/ Instructions on upgrading are here: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql-repo-excerpt/5.6/en/updating-yum-repo.html I actually prefer (and would recommend) the yum repos, since the underlying rpm packages are in a newer format. - Morgan On Mar 3, 2014, at 1:00 AM, Asma rabe <asma.r...@gmail.com> wrote: > I installed my sql using RPM as follows: > > rpm -i MySQL-server-5.6.16-1.el6.x86_64.rpm > > I got the following errors > file /usr/share/mysql/czech/errmsg.sys from install of > MySQL-server-5.6.16-1.el6.x86_64 conflicts with file from package > mysql-libs-5.1.61-1.el6_2.1.x86_64 > file /usr/share/mysql/danish/errmsg.sys from install of > MySQL-server-5.6.16-1.el6.x86_64 conflicts with file from package > mysql-libs-5.1.61-1.el6_2.1.x86_64 > file /usr/share/mysql/dutch/errmsg.sys from install of > MySQL-server-5.6.16-1.el6.x86_64 conflicts with file from package > mysql-libs-5.1.61-1.el6_2.1.x86_64 > file /usr/share/mysql/english/errmsg.sys from install of > MySQL-server-5.6.16-1.el6.x86_64 conflicts with file from package > mysql-libs-5.1.61-1.el6_2.1.x86_64 > file /usr/share/mysql/estonian/errmsg.sys from install of > MySQL-server-5.6.16-1.el6.x86_64 conflicts with file from package > mysql-libs-5.1.61-1.el6_2.1.x86_64 > file /usr/share/mysql/french/errmsg.sys from install of > MySQL-server-5.6.16-1.el6.x86_64 conflicts with file from package > mysql-libs-5.1.61-1.el6_2.1.x86_64 > file /usr/share/mysql/german/errmsg.sys from install of > MySQL-server-5.6.16-1.el6.x86_64 conflicts with file from package > mysql-libs-5.1.61-1.el6_2.1.x86_64 > > When i tested if the server has installed or not > > bin/mysqlshow > -bash: bin/mysqlshow: No such file or directory > > > Any help is appreciated . > > > > Best Regards, > Rabe > > > On Fri, Feb 28, 2014 at 1:36 AM, Johan De Meersman <vegiv...@tuxera.be>wrote: > >> ----- Original Message ----- >>> From: "Asma rabe" <asma.r...@gmail.com> >>> Subject: Re: New to MySQL >>> >>> so,Is it recommended to install RPM bundle which has compatlibs, MySQL >>> server....etc rather than installing the server only? >> >> The Server should suffice; the Bundle is merely a convenient way to >> download ALL the RPMs in one go. >> >> >> -- >> Unhappiness is discouraged and will be corrected with kitten pictures. >> -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql
