Which mysql edition should I install for my CentOS server?

The开发者_运维技巧re are different mysql install packages for differential platforms. http://www.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/#downloads

I'm using CentOS, which install package should I download?

The Generic Linux or Rethat/Oracle Enterprise Linux?

PS: I cannot install it with yum because of some irregular Transation error.

Thanks.

You can safely use the Red Hat & Oracle Enterprise Linux version on CentOS. I've always used those Rpm without any problems. CentOS aims to be 100% binary compatible with RedHat.

I would go with the Redhat version. CentOS uses RedHat source code.
