MySQL 4.1 breaking plesk updater

[Eriky]

I installed MySQL 4.1 from the official MySQL packages. Now plesk updater keeps telling me there is an update for the base packages. When I start the upgrade, it wants to install old mysql 3.xx packages. How can I fix this situation. Why is MySQL 4.1 not supported? I also tried MySQL 4.1 packages from art but they didn't help much.

I'd like to add that I have version 7.5.4
Also, I'm looking for a place to download plesk rpm's myself. I want to upgrade the upgrader with and rpm to see if that helps..

Try using my archive, I support mysql 4.1 on PSA 7.5

I removed the MySQL packages and used yours. The updater works again now (thanks!) but I still keep having a problem I had with your previous MySQL packages too.

When I do service mysql stop
it is unable to stop the server. Any idea what might cause this?[

I successfully did a MySQL41 upgrade using the following steps.

1) from the root console I used ./psa_installer.......
to uprade my plesk from 7.5.2 to 7.5.4
2) issue # rpm -Uvh MySQL-server-4.1.14-0.i386.rpm
3) service mysqld restart
4) service psa start
5) mysql -u username -p

mysql> select version();

6) /usr/bin/mysql_fix_privilege_tables --user= --password='cat /etc/psa/.psa.shadow'

7) /etc/init.d/mysqld restart

I hope this helps
