You need to find and install the packages that provide the missing libraries. You can use yum whatprovides to accomplish this:

yum whatprovides */glibc.so.6
yum whatprovides */libmysqlclient.so.16
yum whatprovides */libsasl2.so.3

If the above commands find any packages, then install them. If not, then you will have to investigate where to find them. Mind you, that can be very challenging
