In this module I have to use mysql
to connect to a remote machine and see the contents of the database. However, I can’t use mysql
because there is only a package named mysql_config
, which does not seem to be useful in my case. Does someone know something about this?
obs. I tried to install mysql, but failed.
Why did you fail? Since it is parrotOS you might want to try mariadb instead. For fundamentals you needs package mariadb-client:
sudo apt install mariadb-client
if you still have issues try to clean whatever mess apt might have left behind while trying to install something by:
sudo apt autoremove
sudo apt clean all
sudo apt update
sudo apt install mariadb-client
Let me know if it helped you!

Thank you very much. The package name for MySQL in Parrot is mariadb
, and I did not know this. So instead of using the command mysql
, I ran mariadb
and it worked.
