Issue/Introduction:

Error during installation of UIM, util.IAAbortInstallerUtils:abortInstall:23 [main].

Cause:

MySQL v5.6 and 5.7 are supported for Linux-MySQL installs but not v5.1.

Environment:

- UIM 8.x (any version)
- CentOS 6
- MySQL 5.1

Resolution:

- Upgrade MySQL from 5.1 to 5.7
- Rerun the installation

The link referenced below is a guide for use with CentOS 6 running a default MySQL v5.1 database. In this case, the customer did not have to follow the section about backing up any databases and restoring prior settings.
