I just did this a couple of weeks ago myself, with your same situation (where 3.23 was installed along with the usual server stuff w/ FC2). The online doc at www.mysql.com (select Developer Zone, then Documentation) has a section that describes where all of the files are for various types of installations. 2.1.5 Installation layouts I used these tables to find all the old mysql stuff and just deleted them all. Then I installed 4 via RPMs and it's been working like a champ since. I wrote up my experiences here: http://www.hentzenwerke.com/wp/mysql_installation.htm Feedback on the whitepaper would be appreciated if it works for you (or doesn't.) -- Whil Moving to Linux: Freedom, Choice, Security, Opportunity http://www.hentzenwerke.com -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
