MariaDB for DirectAdmin Using RPMs
If you are using DirectAdmin and you encounter any issues with Installing MariaDB with YUM, then the directions below may help. The process is very straightforward.
Or:
Starting httpd:
httpd:
Syntax error on line 18 of /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf:
Syntax error on line 1 of /etc/httpd/conf/extra/httpd-phpmodules.conf:
Cannot load /usr/lib/apache/libphp5.so into server:
/usr/lib/apache/libphp5.so: undefined symbol: client_errors
RPM Installation
To install the RPMs, there is a quick and easy guide to Installing MariaDB with the RPM Tool. Follow the instructions there.
Necessary Edits
We do not want DirectAdmin's custombuild to remove/overwrite our MariaDB installation whenever an update is performed. To rectify this, disable automatic MySQL installation.
Edit /usr/local/directadmin/custombuild/options.conf
and replace mysql_inst=yes
with mysql_inst=no
sudo sed -i 's/^mysql_inst=yes/mysql_inst=no/' /usr/local/directadmin/custombuild/options.conf
When MariaDB is installed manually (i.e. not using YUM), updates are not automatic. You will need to update the RPMs yourself.
