We have Zenoss 1.1.1 installed and running on Centos 4.4. I need a
little bit more information about what you have attempted thus far. The
biggest issue I tripped over was upgrading an existing MySQL install
from the Centos default. Did you upgrade and existing mysql install
along the way, even if you just installed the default mysql package
without creating any databases inside it? The long and short of it is
that using rpm -Uvh upgrades the rpm package (the binaries), but not
migrate existing databases. Mind you, this is for your protection. So
if you have an existing mysql database on the server, you will want to
see if any of your existing databases are affected before upgrading. Of
course if you did not have any previous mysql databases, just remove
mysql and any of the related mysql packages first. Use "rpm -qa | grep
-i mysql" to identify any other packages.
I recommend using the mysql package from the centosplus repository
(mysql-5.0.27-1.el4.centos). There are some incompatibilities between
the default Centos 4.4 MySQL version (mysql-4.1.20-2.RHEL4.1) and the
version from the centosplus repository (mysql-5.0.27-1.el4.centos), so I
can not be more clear about this, if you already have existing mysql
databases on the system, you need to identify whether they are
compatible or need to be modified first. Let me know if you need help
activating the centosplus repository. On a mysql free system just do a
"yum install mysql-5.0.27-1".

Hi,
I installed the vmware version ok, but cant get zenoss to install on dedicated Centos 4.4 box (couldn't find rpm for centos 4.3). Tried all sorts of mysql versions (5.0.22 -big prob with deps, 5.0.24a (incl with zenoss deps), 5.0.37.
In general the errors seem to be that running:
rpm -qa | grep mysql
shows not installed but installing the mysql package via rpm -Uvh says it is
already installed.
Is zenoss supported on centos 4.4? and what version of mysql should I use? (btw
I'm not very linux experienced).
- Tim.
