[CentOS] upgrading Mysql 5.0.95
Hi All, I'm getting things ready to upgrade my aging installation of MySQL 5.0.95 on my CentOS 5 LAMP server. With the impending EOL date of 3.31 fast approaching my sense of doom and urgency is increasing. I see that the necessary packages are available in @base and @updates - mysql51 and mysql55 respectively but from all the information I've read on the matter so far I'm left with a few questions I don't yet have answers to.' What I've done so far and thankfully was able recover from: 1. installed and enabled to epel repo - ran yum remove mysql - this command wanted to remove a few things I wanted to keep in place like dovecot and a few php53 packages. I didn't want to have to go back and clean up any messes that would create. So, I used the rpm -e --nodeps command to remove the MySQL packages. - because this was a redhat repo it installed the binaries in a total different place AND tossed all my existing data directories. and yes I spit coffee all over my laptop screen and yes, I did have data dir backups and a dump of MySQL data. HOLY CRAP! 2. removed the epel packages - disabled this repo - for ever at least for now... 3. reinstalled the old MySQL 5.0.95 packages - because I was hyper-ventilating - reset roots password - imported all the databases from the dump and checked my web apps - everything working again. - I did have to recreate the mysql.servers table to be able to flush privileges. I understand that mysql51 is available in @base for the sole purpose of upgrading old MySQL and mysql55 is in updates for getting to 5.5, however here is where things get a little fuzzy for me: Steps for Upgrading (as I understand them): 1. Take a dump of all mysql database using mysqldump --add-drop-database --all-databases 2. Stop mysql services 3. make a backup of data directories: /var/lib/mysql (but its not _supposed_ to remove the data directories.) 3. yum remove mysql mysql-server (again, it will include a few things I don't want removed. so, i'll have to use rpm -e --nodeps and list the packages for removal then issue yum clean all.' 4. yum install mysql51 5. start mysql service 6. run command mysql_upgrade... (here's where things start getting fuzzy) Question #1: is this command to be run from the commandline or should I log into mysql as root user and run the command? Question #2: at this point I will have mysql 5.1 installed and running but to get up to 5.5 am I expected to yum remove 5.1 and then yum install 5.5 from @updates and repeat steps 5 and 6 OR simply run the command yum update mysql51* to catch all already installed mysql51 packages to and then run the mysql_update command to bring data up to date with the current mysql install? THank you for your kind attention... -- Mark ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

I figured that since you mentioned the EOL date of 3.31, you understood that meant no new updates for CentOS 5. No more support for CentOS 5. That means you'd be putting in all this work to migrate mysql on a platform that isn't supported anymore. Why bother updating mysql then?

If I am going to run "rpm -Uvh" then why would I need to remove the current mysql server? If I remove the current mysql, shouldn't I run "rpm -ivh" instead? Thanks for the help so far.

Having gone through this process about 7 months ago: It's not recommended to do a "binary upgrade", that is, to simply install the newer mysql server and attempt to continue using the same database files. Depending on which storage engines you're using, it can fail rather spectacularly. Instead you should: - stop all clients accessing the mysql 4 server - flush tables and run a full mysqldump - shut down the mysql 4 server - make a backup of /var/lib/mysql - completely remove /var/lib/mysql - remove mysql 4 and install 5 (you can do this in one operation with "rpm -Uvh ...") - start up the mysql 5 server and configure root password etc. - reload the dump from the first step - follow the instructions in the online mysql documentation to update grants etc. Also pay careful attention to the changes in timestamp column behavior, default characters sets and collations, etc. There's extensive documentation on the mysql website, but it's not really all in one place and may take some digging. ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
