Topic: iRedMail with existing MySQL installation

==== Required information ====
- iRedMail version: 0.8.6
- Store mail accounts in which backend (LDAP/MySQL/PGSQL): MySQL
- Linux/BSD distribution name and version: CentIOS 6.5
- Related log if you're reporting an issue:
====

Trying to install iRedMail with an existing installation of mySQL community ver 5.5. It still tries to install mysql 5.1.

I saw in installation tips page (very old though) that one can change that behavior but those parameters are not available in the config files created in ~/iRedMail-0.8.6/config/.

Any help is appreciated.

I did. It doesn't work for local existing installation.

Installation still fails, trying to install older mysql version.

Show me error log please, so that i can fix it.

Also, show us how you perform this installation, show us each steps you did, the more details the better, so that we can know whether it's caused by your improper steps or our wiki tutorial.
