Factsheet
It looks like mysql-community-server-5.7.9-1.el7.x86_64.rpm includes the following additional features (list may not included all) that are not available in the mysql-community-server-minimal-5.7.9-1.el7.x86_64.rpm:
- innochecksum
myisam_ftdump
myisamlog — Display MyISAM Log File Contents
myisampack — Generate Compressed, Read-Only MyISAM Tables
mysql_plugin — Configure MySQL Server Plugins
mysql_secure_installation — Improve MySQL Installation Security
mysqld_pre_systemd
mysqldumpslow — Summarize Slow Query Log Files
perror — Explain Error Codes
resolve_stack_dump — Resolve Numeric Stack Trace Dump to Symbols
resolveip — Resolve Host name to IP Address or Vice Versa
I think debugging option is also limited in the mysql-community-server-minimal-5.7.9-1.el7.x86_64.rpm version.
The minimal package was designed for use by the official docker images for MySQL. It cuts out some of the non-essential pieces of MySQL, but is otherwise the same product.
I'm using AWS to host an RDS DB on the MySQL Community engine, using version 8.x. Are there any disadvantages in moving from MySQL Community to something like MariaDB? It's to my understanding that MariaDB offers more functionality, it's a super of MySQL Community (so it very similar to move over to), and it's just more efficient. I don't care about any enterprise or corporate support, if I would somehow have that in comparison to using something like MariaDB. When I look into it, it sounds like I just made in inferior chose when I chose the engine
Both will install into same final setup. the web-community is online installer, you need to download to connect to the online server and installations files come from online while the community installer is an offline installer with full features. web-installer (online, need internet connection to complete the installation), community-installer(offline, full).
The difference between MySQL Community (mysql-8.0.18-winx64) and MySQL Installer (mysql-installer-community-8.0.18.0.msi) is that the MySQL Installer has
- MySQL Server
- MySQL Connectors
- MySQL Workbench and sample models
- MySQL for Excel
- MySQL for Visual Studio, Etc..
And MySQL Community only includes the MySQL Server. Hope this helps anyone who is still looking for an answer.
Hi all,
I have an old MacBook Air 2017, Monterey 12.7, and I want to install the MySQL community server to work on some personal projects. The only versions I see are for macOS 13, would this still work?
Hello guys, the server does not install no matter what. Idk what to do, I have installed all versions of visual c++ (15,17,19), deleted everything, and installed everything from the beginning, tried different versions of servers to install, and so far the only version 5.1.45 did install. But I wanted the newest version. Is there anything that I am missing? Thank you!

Use Linux :)
If you don't have a specific reason for using MySql, I would suggest trying MariaDB. It's a drop-in replacement for MySql and works very well, often better, and will likely have different install/system requirements than Oracle's version. Also, make sure that you install either database as an administrative user.
Also, unless you have a specific requirement for the latest version of MySql, I wouldn't sweat using an older version. Especially if this is for educational purposes or a hobby project. Although you should strive for version 5.5 as a minimum.
