Install Percona Server for MySQL 8.0 using downloaded DEB packages¶
Download the packages of the desired series for your architecture from the Percona downloads page. The easiest way is to download the bundle, which contains all the packages. The following example downloads Percona Server for MySQL 8.0.13-3 release packages for Debian 9.0 (stretch):
$ wget https://www.percona.com/downloads/Percona-Server-8.0/Percona-Server-8.0.13-3/binary/debian/stretch/x86_64/percona-server-8.0.13-3-r63dafaf-stretch-x86_64-bundle.tar
It would help if you then unpacked the bundle to get the packages:
$ tar xvf percona-server-8.0.13-3-r63dafaf-stretch-x86_64-bundle.tar
After you unpack the bundle, you should see the following packages:
$ ls .deb
Now, you can install Percona Server for MySQL using dpkg. Run this command as root or use the sudo command:
$ sudo dpkg -i .deb
This will install all the packages from the bundle. Another option is to
download/specify only the packages you need for running Percona Server for MySQL
installation (libperconaserverclient21_8.0.13-3-1.stretch_amd64.deb,
percona-server-client_8.0.13-3-1.stretch_amd64.deb,
percona-server-common_8.0.13-3-1.stretch_amd64.deb, and
percona-server-server_8.0.13-3-1.stretch_amd64.deb. Optionally, you can install
percona-server-tokudb_8.0.13-3-1.stretch_amd64.deb if you want the TokuDB
storage engine).
Note
Percona Server for MySQL 8.0 comes with the TokuDB storage engine. You can find more information on how to install and enable the TokuDB storage in the TokuDB Installation guide.
Starting with Percona Server for MySQL 8.0.28-19 (2022-05-12), the TokuDB storage engine is no longer supported. We have removed the storage engine from the installation packages and disabled the storage engine in our binary builds. For more information, see the TokuDB Introduction.
Warning
When installing packages manually like this, you’ll need to resolve all the dependencies and install missing packages yourself. The following packages will need to be installed before you can manually install Percona Server: mysql-common, libjemalloc1, libaio1, and libmecab2.
