Percona XtraDB Cluster with MySQL is Not Supported by Amazon Linux 2023

Hi,

I attempted to deploy Percona XtraDB Cluster (versions 8.0.36, 8.0.37, and 8.0.41) on Amazon Linux 2023. Unfortunately, the operating system appears to be unsupported for this installation, even though it is listed as supported in the official Percona support policy (https://www.percona.com/services/policies/percona-software-support-lifecycle#mysql).

We followed the installation steps provided in the official documentation (Install Percona XtraDB Cluster-based variant - Percona Distribution for MySQL), but encountered the following error:

Can anyone assist in resolving this issue or suggest a viable workaround?

Hello @kirankumar,
Make sure you are using the latest percona-release package, because AL 2023 is indeed supported.

# rpm -qa | grep percona-release
percona-release-1.0-30.noarch

# grep 2023 /usr/bin/percona-release
      if [[ ${OS_VER} == 2023 ]]; then
      if [[ ${OS_VER} == 2023 ]]; then
    if [[ ${OS_VER} == 2023 ]]; then
      sed -i 's/$releasever/2023/g' /etc/yum.repos.d/percona*.repo

Hello @matthewb,

Thanks for the response.

I followed the commands below to install, but encountered an error during the execution of the second command. Am I doing anything wrong?

Additionally, is there any way I can specifically install version PXC 8.0.37 on Amazon Linux 2023?

  1. sudo yum install https://repo.percona.com/yum/percona-release-latest.noarch.rpm
  2. sudo percona-release setup pxc-80
  3. sudo yum install percona-xtradb-cluster
