Hi MYSQL users,
Just started playing with mysql apache php and other tricky stuff and have a
few question to get me going after many years.
Was wondering what the best GUI based administration tool is used today, I
lasted used phpMyAdmin, is this still used or are there better applications
available?
If you don't have remote access to the port MySQL is running on,
phpMyAdmin is still very good. However, when ever I can, I use the
mysql GUI tools, MySQL Query Browser and MySQLAdmin. They are both
written by MySQL and are on the site for download.

Looking for some basic documentation on MYSQL could someone recommend
something online or maybe a book??
MySQL maintains a manual for each of the major version online in several
formats, including HTML and PDF, I prefer the US - Letter size PDF
file. It is over 1,700 pages of information. Most anything you need to
know about it can be found in there.

I have an old system that will probably need upgrading.
Apache 1.3
Mysql 3.22.32
Tomcat 3.1.1
Red Hat 8
Would you recommend upgrading this system or starting from scratch?
Well if you want to go all the way to MySQL 5, you will need to do
several upgrades. I would just start over with a modern Linux
Distribution that has MySQL 4.1 Apache 2 and I think PHP 5. It will
take far less effort than upgrading what you have now.
