Re: upgrading from 4.1.8 to 4.1.9

[Robert L Cochran]

I'm using Fedora Core 3 and just did an upgrade from 4.1.7 to 4.1.9, 
using Linux AMD64 rpms from the MySQL web site. It looks like everything 
went well. For me, the hard part was backing up my databases with 
mysqldump -- see my comments under the thread "MySQL upgrading" on this 
list.

I shut down the MySQL server using 'mysqladmin shutdown', then upgraded 
the client package, followed by the server, followed by the shared and 
devel packages. Then I re-built PHP 5.0.3 to take in the new MySQL 
client stuff. It all seems to work well. Of course, your mileage may 
vary. (I'd like to use RHEL some day myself.)

It's using rpms from the MySQL site, and the new ones will be from 
there as well.

Assuming I shut down MySQL and any apps that use it, is it as simple 
as upgrading the rpms? Will the apps be affected by the change?
