Hi, Im running Linux 7.0 with mysql 3.23.35 installed via rpm. I have 
some very strange problems where web forms submitted to my php insert 
page seems to trigger an insert but only the new row's id gets inserted 
and nothing else. I have tried everything to reproduce the error from my 
side ( over a normal dial-up), yet when some users use the form, this 
happens.
So, only thing I havn't done is to re-install/upgrade the mysql on my 
system.
Now, I want to make sure that*if* something goes wrong during the actual 
upgrade of the mysql, that I can quickly revert to the old server and 
tables, so basically I'd like to install the new version of mysql to run 
parallel with the old one and then to just "switch" between them and 
once everything is fine, I can simply shut down the old server for good.
Is there someone on this list that can help me to do this. I *MUST* do 
it this way ( or some other clever way) as there are critical stuff 
running on the server. I can probably afford some downtime late Sunday 
night...

But only if absolutely no other way that a reboot...
Thanks
