Error upgrading from 7.1.3 to 7.5.1, help!!

[DaveNET@]

Hi,

As my thread title suggests, I want to upgrade to 7.5.1, mostly to try out the Qmail reject feature.

I got the following error message after using the Updater utility.

Preparing for packages installation...

php = 4.3.8-sp.rh73.1 is needed by php-xslt-4.3.8-sp.rh73.1

Any ideas what to do next?

Hi,

php = 4.3.8-sp.rh73.1 is needed by php-xslt-4.3.8-sp.rh73.1

You could try to manually remove php-xslt-4.3.8-sp.rh73.1 before:

rpm -e php-xslt-4.3.8-sp.rh73.1

I followed your suggestion and ran the update again. Here's the error I'm getting now.

Hi,

which MySQL packages do you have installed?

rpm -qa | grep -i mysql

Hi David,

I guess the problem is that you are using non-standard MySQL 4 packages for RH 7.3 (afaik RH 7.3 only comes with MySQL 3). Therefore Plesk obviously conflicts with your MySQL packages.

A workaround would be to dump all your databases, reinstall standard mysql 3 rpms, restore all dumped databases, then upgrade Plesk and then upgrade MySQL again ... but I have never tried this

Hope this helps,

Pink

I guess it's time to contact 4PSA. I don't know when I had the non-standard MySQL packages installed.
