Which mysql server package should I install? - mysql

I posted this question on serverfault but have not received an answer. Maybe someone here can answer this:
I just switched hosts and now have the task of reinstalling everything. I'm on CentOS now and I need to install mysql but have no idea which package to install. I can't seem to find any info on the differences either. Would anyone know? Yum is not an option as it wants to install 5.0.77 and this is too old. The machine is 64 bit.

5.0 is not supported anymore (unless you have a contract). 5.1 is the only GA-version with support, the only option you have for a free MySQL-database with support.

How can I upgrade TLS verion to 1.2 on MySQL

I have the MySQL version 5.7.26 that is using the TLS versions TLSv1.1. I had seen this when I had executed the command SHOW GLOBAL VARIABLES LIKE 'tls_version';. And I would like to upgrade to version TLSv1.2. Unfortunately I can't find a good tutorial site guiding me step by step on how to make this change. Can someone help me out. Thank you
P.S. I am running the server on Mac OS Catalina.
Most probably the openssl library on your system does not support tls 1.2 yet.
You can try
brew upgrade openssl

Is there a way to safely downgrade from MariaDB to MySQL?

I am running cPanel/WHM with MariaDB, it seems that at least according to their sayings is not possible with their built in system to downgrade this automaticly. What about other ways to do it? Does someone have experience with such downgrades, if so please advice. Running Centos 7.

MySQL5.6 stuck on the process " attempting to start service "

I got a community server version of MySQL5.6 for windows7 32 bit.
and also downloaded windows installer for the same windows version.
Everything was prepared correctly.
I saw on a blog giving me a step-by-step manual for installing MySQL 5.6 on winodws7 32bit.
I did the instruction accordingly and it always stops processing in the phrase of starting service. I completely don't know what the problem is.
I googled it for like three hours and got nothing relevant to this problem.
It never processes any further without any kind of alerts, no matter how much I wait.
Please help me out.
My OS
Windows7 Ultimate K 32bit, Service Pack1
TURN OFF WINDOWS FIREWALL COMPLETELY BEFORE INSTALLING
This was one of the only threads I could find on this issue and the current answers did not cut the mustard for me.
MySQL 5.6.21, both x86 and x64, did not want to get past "Starting Server" and would give me the "MySQL install taking longer than expected" message.
I tried all of the registry cleaner, folder deletions, etc to no avail.
I am running Windows 7 x64 and I finally decided to check the event viewer to find this:
0x80070422 turns out to be some unspecified firewall error and boom, it struck me like lightning.
I hope this post helps future visitors!
Have you installed other version of MySQL before? I have experienced this case ,but I installed MySQL5.5 and uninstalled it. I solved it by clearing regedit and deleting the folder of MySQL in the directory(C:\ProgramData.This directory is hidden by default in Windows.),then reinstalled it.
Follow this link http://tadeparti.com/pages/?page_id=808.
And do remember to delete everything under the C:\program files\mysql folder, including the odbc stuff if you have.

This is a decent tutorial for Debian, and since Ubuntu is a debian-based distro it should be pretty close: http://thegioinguonmo.com/database-server/mysql/how-to-set-up-a-load-balanced-mysql-cluster-with-mysql-5-1.html
