No package available when installing packages on CentOS 6.6

Question

I wanted to install mysql-server on CentOS 6.6 (64bit). When I run yum install mysql-server, I get the following error:

root@ip-50-62[/home/syn]# yum install mysql-server
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror
Setting up Install Process
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile

 * rpmforge: mirror.hmc.edu
 * updates: p3plmirror02.prod.phx3.secureserver.net
No package mysql-server available.
Error: Nothing to do

How do I install it?

Solution

Solved the problem myself. File /etc/yum.com had mysql* excluded. I removed mysql* for some period of time & installed it. I got installed like a charm. Now putting back the mysql* in exclude.

Hope that helps someone!

What is /etc/yum.com means ? It is /etc/yum.conf right ?
