How to install MariaDB Entreprise on Centos

1) Configure your Linux Repository

If you're comfortable configuring a Centos 6.x (64bit) Linux server this bit's really easy.

The username and password that you just used to sign-up will also be the credentials you use to access our secure Linux repository.

Login to your server as root and:

Create a repository configuration file under /etc/yum.repos.d/ (example at /etc/rum.repos.d/MariaDB-Manager.repo)

[mariadb-enterprise]
name=mariadb-enterprise
baseurl=http://user:pwd@code.mariadb.com/MariaDB-Manager/R1.0.0/repo/
enabled=1
gpgcheck=false

You may also use CURL in place of the above method (replace user:pwd with your own username and password).

curl --user user:pwd
http://code.mariadb.com/MariaDB-Manager/R1.0.0/MariaDB-Manager.repo
> /etc/yum.repos.d/MariaDB-Manager.repo

Once this repository configuration file is in place, you will need to edit the file and replace 'user:pwd' with your MariaDB username and password. 

Then run:

yum update

If your repository updates without an error you're good to go!

2) Install MariaDB Manager

Now run the command:

yum install MariaDB-Manager

Once MariaDB Manager has installed point your browser at http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:8080/MariaDBManager, or http://my.domain.expample.com:8080/MariaDBManager 

The first time that you access the web interface, you will be asked to provide a username and password for the primary administrator account. You should do this immediately after installation. 

There's even more help in our Getting Started Guide or on the Knowledge Base.
