#REDIRECT [[Toolpack_prerequisite_Fedora_Core12_2-5|This page has moved]]
 
== Toolpack Prerequisites ==
 
=== Toolpack Basic packages ===
 
The software listed below is required by the host machines.
 
  yum install gcc zlib-devel
 
=== Toolpack System Database ===
 
The Toolpack system database is used by the main host and requires mySQL database server. The
system database packages are as follows:
 
yum install mysql-server mysql-devel
 
1. Start and enable mysql.
 
/sbin/chkconfig mysqld on
/sbin/service mysqld start
 
2. Setup initial database root password (replace ''[RootPassword]'' by a password of your choice). ''[YourHostName]'' corresponds to the machine's hostname.
 
/usr/bin/mysqladmin -u root password ''[RootPassword]''
/usr/bin/mysqladmin -u root -p''[RootPassword]'' -h ''[YourHostName]'' password ''[RootPassword]''
 
'''IMPORTANT''': Please read the [http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1-maria/en/default-privileges.html 'Securing the Initial MySQL Accounts'] article to learn how to manage users and privileges.
 
3. Install the database.
 
mysql_install_db
 
4. Log onto mysql, create a tbdb user. The ''[DatabaseUsername]'' and ''[DatabasePassword]'' will need to be supplied to the toolpack installer.
If you cannot log in it is possible that the host name is not configured properly, use an IP Address instead.
 
mysql -u root -p''[RootPassword]''
CREATE USER '[DatabaseUsername]'@'%' IDENTIFIED BY '[DatabasePassword]';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO '[DatabaseUsername]'@'%';
CREATE USER '[DatabaseUsername]'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY '[DatabasePassword]';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO '[DatabaseUsername]'@'localhost';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
exit
 
ex.
 
mysql -u root -p''[RootPassword]''
CREATE USER 'tbdb'@'%' IDENTIFIED BY 'tbdbpw';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'tbdb'@'%';
CREATE USER 'tbdb'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'tbdbpw';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'tbdb'@'localhost';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
exit
 
To verify if the user is created:
 
mysql -u root
SELECT * FROM mysql.user;
exit
 
5.Install odbc driver and driver manager
 
yum install unixODBC mysql-connector-odbc
 
6. Configure mysql to support database replication (Will not interfere if your system do not use it).
 
vim /etc/my.cnf
 
Add 2 new variable in the mysql config file
 
Add log-bin and server-id. The value of server-id needs to be unique on each host( do not use 0 ).
 
Make sure it is in the [mysqld] section
 
log-bin
server-id=''[UniqueId]''
 
Example:
 
[root@FEDORACORE12 tblab]# cat /etc/my.cnf
[mysqld]
datadir=/var/lib/mysql
socket=/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock
user=mysql
log-bin
server-id=1
# Default to using old password format for compatibility with mysql 3.x
# clients (those using the mysqlclient10 compatibility package).
old_passwords=1
[mysqld_safe]
log-error=/var/log/mysqld.log
pid-file=/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.pid
[root@FEDORACORE12 tblab]#
 
Restart the mysql service
 
/sbin/service mysqld restart
