Hi All Sorry for all my posts today but this one client is keeping me busy.
the version of MySQL installed on the ubuntu server is 5.0.51a-3ubuntu5.8-log as this was the latest one available in the repository. We will need to upgrade this to version 5.1.53. Am I correct in assuming the following steps? 1. setup version 5.1.53 on the machine (different port) 2. shutdown the current database. 3. create backup file 4. restore backup 5. change port to 3306 6. startup new database. 7. disable the old database so that it would not start up during reboot.
