MySQL 5.7 downgrade to 5.5

TarasS

Basic Pleskian
I've tried to downgrade MySQL 5.7 to 5.5.
I do not have backup of Plesk users and databases for MySQL 5.5.
I can't restore psa database from backups made for MySQL 5.7 because of errors.

Can I reinstall Plesk 12 with empty database to use it on installed MySQL server 5.5?
 
Yes, it is possible. I did it.

Lessons I've learned:
1. Make backups.
2. Verify your backups are good.
3. Stay calm even if everything seems to be broken for ever.
4. Ask questions if you can't find answers by yourself.
