Mysql setup on server install - but it's no there

[Jody Cleveland]

Hi Steve,

# updatedb
# find / -name mysql

Did the update, then the find command gave me this:

/etc/webmin/mysql
/usr/share/mysql
/usr/bin/mysql
/usr/include/mysql
/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi/auto/DBD/mysql
/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi/DBD/mysql
/usr/lib/mysql
/usr/libexec/webmin/caldera/mysql
/usr/libexec/webmin/mscstyle3/mysql
/usr/libexec/webmin/mysql

> You could also look for the mysql rpm as well ->
# rpm qa | grep mysql

That just returned to the command prompt. Does that mean it's not
installed? If so, why would the package manager say it was? And one
more, what's the best way to get it installed?

Thank you for your time with this.

- Jody
