Full root SSH access is included with all our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Linux VPS hosting<\/a> plans. Before you continue with the instructions below, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/blog\/connect-to-your-linux-vps-via-ssh\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">connect to your server via SSH<\/a> and make sure your system software is up to date.<\/p>\n<pre>yum update<\/pre>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2-Install-MariaDB-on-CentOS-7\"><\/span>2.

To install MariaDB on your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/centos-hosting.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">CentOS 7 VPS<\/a>, run the following command:<\/p>\n<pre>yum install mariadb-server<\/pre>\n<p>The installer will ask you to confirm the MariaDB installation. Just type <code>y<\/code> and press <code>Enter<\/code>.<\/p>\n<p>The installation will take a few seconds depending on the connection speed and server performance.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3-Manage-MariaDB-on-CentOS-7\"><\/span>3. Manage MariaDB on CentOS 7<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Once the installation is completed it is good to know how you can manage the MariaDB service. To start the MariaDB service, run the following command on the terminal:<\/p>\n<pre>systemctl start mariadb<\/pre>\n<p>To stop the MariaDB service, you can use the following command:<\/p>\n<pre>systemctl stop mariadb<\/pre>\n<p>To restart the service, you can run the following command:<\/p>\n<pre>systemctl restart mariadb<\/pre>\n<p>To check the status of the MariaDB service, run the following command:<\/p>\n<pre>systemctl status mariadb<\/pre>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4-Enable-MariaDB-on-system-boot\"><\/span>4.

Secure MariaDB on CentOS 7<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Once you install the MariaDB database server on your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/centos-hosting.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">CentOs 7 VPS<\/a>, it is recommended to harden the security of the service. A good starting point is to run the security hardening script, shipped with the MariaDB service. To run the script, you can use the following command:<\/p>\n<pre>mysql_secure_installation<\/pre>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-28706\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Install-MariaDB-CentOs-7.jpg\" alt=\"Install MariaDB CentOs 7\" width=\"120\" height=\"85\" \/> The MariaDB security script will address few security concerns that comes by default with the MariaDB installation as well as will allow you to set up a root password for the MariaDB service. This root password is different than the root password you are using for connecting to the server via SSH. You will use this password to connect to the MariaDB server as root so you can manage the MariaDB users, databases, privileges and more.<\/p>\n<p>To connect to the MariaDB server as root through the command line, you can use the following command:<\/p>\n<pre>mysql -u root -p<\/pre>\n<p>Then, type the MariaDB root password which you have set during the initial MariaDB service security hardening.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-28703\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Install-MariaDB-on-CentOS-7.jpg\" alt=\"Install MariaDB on CentOS 7\" width=\"180\" height=\"60\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Install-MariaDB-on-CentOS-7.jpg 180w, https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Install-MariaDB-on-CentOS-7-150x50.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 180px) 100vw, 180px\" \/> Of course, you don\u2019t have to install MariaDB on CentOS 7, if you use one of our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/mariadb-hosting.html\">MariaDB VPS Hosting<\/a> services, in which case you can simply ask our expert Linux admins to install MariaDB on CentOS 7 for you.
