Same as me! :'(

I spend more than 5 hours, do random things to make this work but it didn't
I want to make this work on Centos 7. For now I have to fallback to Centos 6 because of this

If anyone found solution for this please reply in this topic, thanks

I have tried but I get errors saying to check my password in the config files.
The password is the same one it generated on install.
This is on a fresh install as well.
Is there something I am missing?
service mysqld stop
cd /var/lib
mv mysql YOUR_NEW_LOCATION_PATH
ln -s YOUR_NEW_LOCATION_PATH mysql
chown -R mysql:mysql YOUR_NEW_LOCATION_PATH
service mysqld start
