Basic support for RHEL 7 #51

Closed ricciocri closed 10 years ago

ricciocri commented 10 years ago

RHEL 7 uses mariadb, so I just changed some defaults in the params manifest to add a basic support. Tested on RHEL 7

I think they should go to a mariadb module... it could be quite confusing to installa aan manage mariadb in a mysql module...

ricciocri commented 10 years ago

I undersatnd the point, MariaDB it's a fork of mysql and for its licensing (mainly) and otehr reasons some distro switched from mysql to it.

This includes RHEL 7 and so either this module will never be compatible with it and one must include the mariadb module, or we use mysql name as the functionality, implemented in the case of RHEL 7 by mariadb.

Your choice of course :)

Best regards

The general idea is that if we want to provide mysql support for rhel7 we should add to the module the dependencies to install it there (for example a yum repo). For mariadb on rhel7 use/patch this... https://github.com/alvagante/puppet-mariadb Thank you anyway ;-)
