hi Jason, Thanks so much for your help. but it only worked for "client" and "devel" package. When I tried to uninstall the MySql Server package i get an error message as
[root java]# rpm -qa | grep -i mysql MySQL-3.23.47-1 [root java]# rpm -e MySQL-3.23.47-1 error reading information on service mysql: No such file or directory execution of script failed [root java]# do you have any idea about this. Is there any other flag or command that can be used to uninstall this. thanks again.
