ProgrammingCaveman Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 (edited) Hi. I downloaded mysql-server_5.7.32-1debian10_amd64.deb-bundle.tar from https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/ and from it I run mysql-community-server_5.7.32-1debian10_amd64.deb and the installer thrown the error visible on my screenshot below. I'm still learning administration of Linux. Please provide some help :-) Edited December 14, 2020 by ProgrammingCaveman Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/311860-cant-install-mysql-on-linux-kali/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
requinix Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 Don't download and install manually. Use your distro's repositories. They exist specifically so you can use them. 1 Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/311860-cant-install-mysql-on-linux-kali/#findComment-1583070 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ProgrammingCaveman Posted December 14, 2020 Author Share Posted December 14, 2020 (edited) Well, I can try that, but they offer version 8.0 ... how can I install version 5.7.32? This is the newest subversion of 5.7 ... what if there is no newest subversion in Kali/Debian repo? Also, can you tell me what the error accually mean ?

It means you are trying to install an old version of Mysql over a newer version of MariaDB.

ProgrammingCaveman Posted December 14, 2020 Author Share Posted December 14, 2020 Great, but still the above doesn't answer my question, but only show arrogance. So how do I install MySqL 5.7.32 from repos ?

benanamen Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 Just wondering, why do you want an old version of Mysql? Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/311860-cant-install-mysql-on-linux-kali/#findComment-1583083 Share on other sites More sharing options...
