Plesk 12 requires Mariadb as a dependence

Ernest_Luk

New Pleskian
I've upgraded Plesk from 11.0 to 12.0.18. from CentOS 6.5 to CentOS 7.0. I've installed MySQL 5.6 on the CentOS 7. Plesk failed to run after upgraded to CentOS 7. So, I reinstalled Plesk 12.0.18 using plesk-installer.

However, the error message says,

Package 1:mariadb-server-5.5.37-1.el7_0.x86_64 is obsoleted by mysql-community-server-5.6.21-2.el6.x86_64 which is already installed
Exception: Failed to solve dependencies:
pp12.0.18-bootstrapper-12.0.18-cos7.build1200140821.14.x86_64 requires mariadb-server >= 5.0.60
plesk-core-12.0.18-cos7.build1200140811.16.x86_64 requires mariadb-server >= 5.0.60
ERROR: The Yum utility failed to install the required packages.

Why the Plesk looking for Mariadb on CentOS 7? It works on Cent 6.5 without asking for Mariadb. I want to use MySQL instead of Mariabdb. How can I ignore the use of Mariadb?

Thanks.
 
Check that you have enabled mariadb repository with

# yum repolist enabled | grep mariadb

and disable it if enabled.
 
MariaDB is default SQL server on CentOS7 instead of MySQL. It looks like that there is mix of different packages now on this server. I suggest you reinstalling clean OS and Plesk and restore backup of old server. And we do not support distupgrade from old OS version to new. It is mentioned in Release Notes.
