MySQL Enterprise thingy

It's been a weird thing when you install MySQL server especially the one that is 'enterprise' version is not working with your PHP. That is the problem that my friend and I facing today. Since PHP require php-mysql extension to connect to MySQL server but php-mysql is only work with mysql-server from the Repos (Redhat/Centos).

1) Remove default mysql-server/php-mysql
2) Install MySQL Enterprise
3) Dependencies conflict occur + headache + install php-mysql

shell> yum install php-mysql
Loaded plugins: rhnplugin, security

  --> mysql conflicts with MySQL-server-advanced-gpl
Error: mysql conflicts with MySQL-server-advanced-gpl
 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
 You could try running: package-cleanup --problems
                        package-cleanup --dupes
                        rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

Googling around really takes my time.. but fortunately found one that might help me from the error that I bold above. I assume after installing mysql-client-enterprise(not a real name) should have libmysqlclient that php-mysql looking for..but I'm totally wrong. The libmysqlclient reside in one of the file that I download from the mysql enterprise but in mysql-share-compat-enterprise (not really complete name)

1) Install mysql-server-enterprise
2) Install mysql-client-enterprise
3) Install mysql-share-compat-enterprise


That should save your time and your penny! :)
