Hello! This is Shimeji from the System Solutions Department.
He has been transferred to the SRE team since December, and is doing his best despite the confusion.

As the title suggests, you would like to install an older version of MySQL, but the repository may not be provided on the official website.
In such a case, please install it by following the steps below.
(The example below installs MySQL5.7.)

Download RPM Bundle file from official website

Download the RPM Bundle file of your desired version from the download page.
MySQL download page

1	`wget https://dev.mysql.com/get/Downloads/MySQL-5.7/mysql-5.7.24-1.el7.x86_64.rpm-bundle.tar`

Extracting files

Once the download is complete, unzip it.

1	`tar -xvf mysql-5.7.24-1.el7.x86_64.rpm-bundle.tar`

local installation

Locally install the RPM package you downloaded locally.
→ Please locally install the following using yum.
・mysql-community-server
・mysql-community-client
・mysql-community-common
・mysql-community-devel
・mysql-community-libs
・mysql-community-libs-compat

yum localinstall mysql-community-server-5.7.24-1.el7.x86_64.rpm mysql-community-client-5.7.24-1.el7.x86_64.rpm mysql-community-common-5.7.24-1.el7. x86_64.rpm mysql-community-devel-5.7.24-1.el7.x86_64.rpm mysql-community-libs-5.7.24-1.el7.x86_64.rpm mysql-community-libs-compat-5.7.24-1 .el7.x86_64.rpm

confirmation

Installation completed!

[root@localhost src]# mysql --version mysql Ver 14.14 Distrib 5.7.24, for Linux (x86_64) using EditLine wrapper
