Rocky 8 - MariaDB Available Packages

Rocky Linux Help & Support

Hi,

On our Rocky 8 servers we can only see 1 version of Maria DB in yum, yet the repo appears to contain several other versions. I would appreciate some assistance on why this would happen?

The repo our server is configured to contact is: Index of /pub/rocky/8/AppStream/x86_64/os/Packages/m/

You can see the various versions of MariaDB here.

Also within the repodata files: http://dl.rockylinux.org/pub/rocky/8/AppStream/x86_64/os/repodata/7783a5c4831ebcc17012187827811beb66a7630e01b40e7f8c45588019684112-primary.xml.gz

There is reference to the various mariaDB versions.

But when I run any yum commands I am only able to find the 10.3.39 version?

That is because they are modules. 10.3 is the default.

You would need to run dnf module enable mariadb:10.11 if you want a different version, for example.
