Hi taipva,

no, you can't do this with the Plesk autoinstaller.

MySQL is well documented and you should follow the official documentation at :

https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.6/en/upgrading.html
and
https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/upgrading.html​

Please note, that

Upgrading more than one release level is supported, but only if you upgrade one release level at a time. For example, upgrade from 5.1 to 5.5, and then to 5.6. Follow the upgrade instructions for each release, in succession.

Direct upgrades that skip a release level (for example, upgrading directly from MySQL 5.1 to 5.6) are not recommended or supported.​

In place upgrade of mysql is not an easy task for beginner. If you have option for clean install it will be much easier for you. I have explaind it here, hope it helps.

Hello,
I plan to build new server and experimenting with plesk 12.5 on CentOS7.1 with MarisDB 10.

So what I did is:
1. Install clean Centos 7.1 (Core)
2. yum update
3. add Mariadb 10 repo to the repo list

vim /etc/yum.repos.d/MariaDB10.repo

# MariaDB 10.0 CentOS repository list - created 2015-10-12 20:25 UTC
# http://mariadb.org/mariadb/repositories/
[mariadb]
name = MariaDB
baseurl = http://yum.mariadb.org/10.0/centos7-amd64
gpgkey=https://yum.mariadb.org/RPM-GPG-KEY-MariaDB
gpgcheck=1

sudo rpm --import https://yum.mariadb.org/RPM-GPG-KEY-MariaDB

4. Install Plesk
wget autoinstall.plesk.com/plesk-installer
chmod +x plesk-installer
./plesk-installer

Now automatically Plesk 12.5 installed MariaDB10 and everything seems to work fine, except in Plesk Add remove component page, it shows that there is no MySQL installed and when I try to install it says it's already installed.

Is it somesort of a bug?
