Hi I am having real problems with my server. Basically mysql has gone completely up the wall. I can get it to start. What I want to do is remove any trace of it from my system and reinstall it. I've tried doing it through yum but this doesn't work.
Heres whats it says:
Loading "installonlyn" plugin
Setting up Install Process
Setting up repositories

How can I remove and reinstall mysql and how can I find where my database files are kept?
