Upgrading MySQL from 3.23 to 5 and Plesk

[tkATX]

Anyone run into any problems anything i should be aware of before I upgrade MySQL. Ive already backed up all my databases just making sure when i upgrade there wont be any problems.

don't ...

Plesk doesn't seem to be compatible with mysql 5
Don't recommand you to try it unless you want to see interesting errors about sql (in a testing enviroment)

MySQL 4 is supported as of 7.5.3, but I do not believe MySQL 5 is supported.

Is there a particular reason you are wanting to upgrade?

Hi Atomic Rocket Turtle,

Thanks for the reply.

Is there any timeline you have for releasing an rpm for mysql 5?

thanks

Simon

Probably in a few days, it will be in the atomic-bleeding channel along with PHP 5.1 (available now).

Hi Atomic Rocket Turtle,

That is awersome! It will be great to have that running. I wish the guys are plesk would include that with the plesk installation. Your work is great and helps alot of people out.

Thanks

Simon
