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

Jody,

I typically install mysql from source code on mysql.com. It looks like you
have a client side version of mysql installed. Check under /etc/init.d/ and
look for a file that has mysql in it. If not, it looks like you aren't setup
for mysql server in which case you'll have to install it. Try pulling the
latest and greatest stable rpm of mysql and follow the docs. It is fairly
straight forward...

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
