Okay, don't cut my head off. MySQL is new for me, but I'm not new to databases.
I have a MySQL DB for development running on WinNT (3.23.51-max-nt). I'm migrating the database for development to Mac OS X MySQL 4.0.12. I've read both the "Upgrading From v3.23 to v4.0" (Section 2.5.2) and "Upgrading to Another Architecture" (Section 2.5.6) in the user manual. I have also run on the NT box the following commands: c:\> mkdir \dump c:\> mysqldump --opt --tab=\dump mydbname c:\> mydir \dump\mysql c:\> mysqldump --opt --tab=\dump\mysql mysql Okay .sql and .txt dumps in hand... Sec 2.5.2 talks about running 'mysql_fix_privilege_tables' I also see I have to update the scripts for some deprecated variables Do I run 'mysql_fix_privilege_tables' *before* or *after* I import the databases per section 2.5.6? I also understand from section 2.5.6 I don't have to worry about the ISAM files because this is a arch migration and the files are arch-dependent. Is this a correct understanding? Thanks in advance for the help!
