You got the 3.23.47 RPM from MySQL's site, I presume? That RPM is not an
upgrade for a RedHat RPM (RedHat packages MySQL differently from the MySQL
AB folks - something to do with the Linux "file system layout standard").
The names are also different - "mysql" for Redhat vs "MySQL" for the MySQL
image.
You'll have to:
* rpm -e the Red Hat package ("mysql").
* Do another "rpm -Uvh" of the MySQL package to be sure that no common
component got blasted.
* Set up the /etc/init.d stuff if needed to start mysql at system boot.
