Hi all, I've encountered a problem with MySQL 5.6.23 on CentOS 7.0 and would greatly appreciate any advice on what to do next.
Synopsis: 1. Fresh install of CentOS 7.0 using minimal install ISO 2. yum update -y 3. rpm -i http://dev.mysql.com/get/mysql-community-release-el7-5.noarch.rpm 4. yum install mysql-community-server -y 5. service mysqld start After installing mysql-community-server 5.6.23 on a fresh minimal install of CentOS 7.0 (running in VirtualBox 4.3.20) it will fail to start with the following error: $ sudo service mysqld start Redirecting to /bin/systemctl start mysqld.service Job for mysqld.service failed. See 'systemctl status mysqld.service' and 'journalctl -xn' for details. $ systemctl status mysqld.service mysqld.service - MySQL Community Server Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/mysqld.service; enabled) Active: activating (start-post) since Thu 2015-02-12 20:07:08 UTC; 1min 30s ago Process: 5643 ExecStart=/usr/bin/mysqld_safe (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS) Process: 5632 ExecStartPre=/usr/bin/mysql-systemd-start pre (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS) Main PID: 5643 (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS); : 5644 (mysql-systemd-s) CGroup: /system.slice/mysqld.service └─control ├─5644 /bin/bash /usr/bin/mysql-systemd-start post └─6115 sleep 1 Snippet from mysqld.log: 150212 19:47:08 mysqld_safe Starting mysqld daemon with databases from /var/lib/mysql 2015-02-12 19:47:08 0 [Warning] TIMESTAMP with implicit DEFAULT value is deprecated.

Looking for 'mysql' as: mysql Looking for 'mysqlcheck' as: mysqlcheck FATAL ERROR: Upgrade failed I've also observed the same behaviour on a CentOS 7.0 image (I believe from http://cloud.centos.org) running in OpenStack under the KVM hypervisor. I have not been able to test in a non-virtualized environment. I've attempted rebooting before and after installation of mysql-community-server to no effect. Previous versions of 5.6.x appear unaffected. Cameron Mann -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql
