Would You Use More "HowTO's" From Shared Media?

Looking Forward To Them!

HowTO's are Good, Now how about RPM's!

They are OK, I'd offer a suggestion though...

Upgrade couldn't have gone smoother!  
Thanks for the HowTo.  It worked perfectly.
Thanks again.
Tristan

I really wish I could express the same sentiment.
I can't, though.
The upgade went smoothly (Howto followed to the letter), but in my case the result was 'package mysql is not installed' when I rpm -q mysql.
Whatever happened ??


Try rpm -q MySQL (that is what you installed - you removed mysql...)

Dear PicsOne,

I did the same as you and installed  the latest package and run into the same error.

How did you downgrade the package ?

I used the command "rpm -e --nodeps MySQL-server-4.1.11-0"


And I get the following message:"error reading information on service mysql: No such file or directory
error: execution of %preun scriptlet from MySQL-server-4.1.11-0 failed, exit status 1"

Any help would be highly appreciated.

Thank You!
Mike

Has anyone tried this to upgrade from 3.23.56 to 4.0.24 ?

I see that the latest version of MySQL is 4.0.24 - has anyone used this How-To to upgrade to 4.0.24?

I'll be using MySQL primarily with PHP (version 4.1.2).

Given the comments previously made in this thread, might it be better to install 4.0.20 ?

Thanks in advance.

Not sure about anyone else, but I was having problems with mysql retstarting on boot after running this update and using the script, I found that the link;
ln -s /etc/rc.d/init.d/mysqld /etc/rc.d/rc7.d/S90mysqld
was creating a link to a non-existent script. It should have been pointing to /etc/rc.d/init.d/mysql

I changed this and it retstarts fine.

Whew, this one saved my butt. I followed instructions for an older sme version, and my sme version wouldn't work with that HowTo.

this one worked like a charm.

Haven't tried the reboot yet

Hi

I got an error trying to upgrade to either 4.1.14-0.i386.rpm or
4.0.26-0.i386.rpm

it need 'coreutils', whatever that may be

Quote
[root@brussels mysql]# rpm -Uvh MySQL-*.rpm
error: failed dependencies:
        coreutils is needed by MySQL-server-4.1.14-0
[root@brussels mysql]#


Any suggestions?

Description of coreutils
Code: [Select]
These are the GNU core utilities.  This package is the combination of
the old GNU fileutils, sh-utils, and textutils packages.


If I am not mistaken all these 3 paclages are installed by default so you can install MySQL with --nodeps option.

Good luck.

SME 6.0.1 upgrade to MySQL 4.1?
« Reply #22 on: October 19, 2005, 07:08:16 PM »
A supplier has written an application that requires MySQL 4.1.  Has anyone done a sucessful upgrade to that version on SME 6.0.1.  ATM, I'm running 4.0.22-0

Many thanks, David

Check upgrade script at my homepage

Very many thanks for this.  
The script is failing to find the rpm MySQL-shared-compat-4.1.14-0.i386.rpm on the mirror.trouble-free.net, and I can't see it there either. I don't find it on Google either.
Has this rpm been renamed since you last upgraded the script?

Thanks again
David

You're correct! MySQL-shared-compat-4.1.13 is the latest released RPM providing shared libraries for 3.23.x, 4.0.x and 4.1.x

Anyway, I've modified the script to download files from my own server and hopefully that'll slove the issue. Good luck...

That seems to have fixed the error.  MySQL version 4.1.14 now installed on SME6.0.1
Very many thanks.  David.
