You can use mysqld_multi to run different versions of MySQL on the same Server. You can run 4.0.x, 4.1.x and 5.0.x and manage these with mysqld_multi.

But, from what i've read, it appears that this is for running multiple instances of the same server version on one box. Same binary anyway. I say this because all the examples show as varying are the socket, port, pid-file, datadir, language, and user. The [mysqld_multi] directive for my.cnf points mysqld at a particular mysqld_safe, which would imply that all the instances would use the same server. So am i correct in thinking that i wont be able to use mysqld_multi for running two different server versions? This shouldn't be a problem, I dont think i'll need it. Just wanted to check if im missing something. thanks sean peters [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
