[root@localhost ~]#


why don't start if it's installed?



This is my command installation:

rpm -Uvh https://repo.zabbix.com/zabbix/4.5/r...el8.noarch.rpm
dnf clean all
dnf -y install http://mirror.centos.org/centos/8.0....b.1.x86_64.rpm

dnf -y install zabbix-server-mysql zabbix-web-mysql zabbix-apache-conf zabbix-agent

I recommend you avoid "alpha" packages until you're much more experienced managing Zabbix. If you previously installed a bunch of 5.0.0 alpha packages and you now want to try the released 4.5.x packages, you first need to remove all the zabbix-related 5.0.0-0.2alpha1 packages.

I recommend you read the remainder of the section on Installing from packages , since you haven't indicated that you've done any of the necessary post-install setup or configuration.

Hi,

first of all i second the opinion of Tim...

About your problem: you probably did not install any mysql (mariadb) server or client packages.
If you want the database to run on your zabbixserver too, install also the mariadb-server package on it.
