Cause
Atomic issued broken mysql package to their repositories. During updates installation mysql package gets updated, but required directory /var/lib/mysql-files is not created.
This issue has been fixed by Atomic in 5.5.54-1199 version of mysql-server package. Update the package to the latest version:
# yum update mysql-server
If no packages are marked for update, clean yum cache:
# yum clean all
# yum update mysql-server
