@Federico,

It seems you’re encountering a package conflict issue between the mariadb-server-utils package version 10.5.22-1.fc38.x86_64 and the community-mysql-server package, which is version 8.0.32-1.fc38.x86_64 in your Fedora system.

To fix the package conflict error between mariadb-server-utils and community-mysql-server, you’ll need to make a decision on which database server you want to use (MariaDB or MySQL) and resolve the conflict accordingly.

If you want to keep MariaDB and remove MySQL (community-mysql-server), you can run the following command:

sudo dnf remove community-mysql-server

If you want to keep MySQL and remove MariaDB (mariadb-server-utils), you can run:

sudo dnf remove mariadb-server-utils

After removing the unwanted database server, you can then update or install the chosen one. For example, if you decided to use MariaDB, you can update it with:

sudo dnf update mariadb-server-utils

If you decided to use MySQL, you can update it with:

sudo dnf update community-mysql-server

Finally, verify that the chosen database server is installed and running as expected.

sudo systemctl status mariadb    # for MariaDB
OR
sudo systemctl status mysqld     # for MySQL

Remember to back up any important data before making these changes, as altering your database server could affect your system’s functionality.

The article does NOT indicate the use case when MaríaDB has been installed, nor what to do to uninstall it.

Nice easy solution, Ravi! Thank you!

@Andre,

You need to allow user to access the database on MySQL with these commands.

CREATE USER 'golden'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON * . * TO 'golden'@'localhost';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
