Dear linux Users

  I use RH EL 3, Every thing is working fine but 

MySql is giving problem while installing.

The Error shown is libmysql.so.10 file required The file is already present on the system.

      In that case you can try adding the directory  ( where

libmysql.so.10 resides ) in /etc/ld.so.conf and run ldconfig .Quite possible that the library path happens to be a non-standard .

      The environ variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH is another option. In any

case, let us know how u fixed this.

Though not a very scientific method, I have seen in such cases deleting the problem package by rpm -e and installing the main package of interest helps. The dependent package is installed by yum as dependency.

This has happened to me quite a few times when loading multimedia packages and updating them from different repositories.

Thanks and regards.
