There are surely plenty of cases where people have run MySQL successfully in 64-bit mode, on similar hardware and software configuration as his, without problems. --Pete -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Critical mysql bug = remotely changing from PURE64 to 32-bit debian.. possible?
Is it possible to go from a Sarge Pure64 installation to a 32-bit debian installation remotely? (I have KVM over IP access if that helps in the process any.. but no CD-ROM on that server) If its possible could someone please tell me the steps to do it or point me to a url that covers it? Thanks! See below for why I think I need to switch to 32 bit - The reason I want to drop down to 32bit is because of the following critical MySQL bug/problem referenced below. This server is going to be a mission critical production mysql database, so we don't want to take any chances. @ http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=8555 See post... *[11 Mar 11:19pm] Michel Buijsman* We're now running in 32 bit mode on the amd64, and that seems to work fine. One of the servers is now running as a replication slave with live data and it's actually replicating which is more than I got when running a 64 bit OS. I've done some head-to-head speed tests (2 identical servers, one with a 64 bit install and one with a regular 32 bit debian, both running mysql 4.1.10 with identical configs) and the 32 bit version is about 10% slower.

Re: Critical mysql bug = remotely changing from PURE64 to 32-bit debian.. possible?
Hello, is this bug reproducible only if the highly experimental gcc-3.4/gcc-4.0 branch is used, as stated in the quoted mysql-bts bugs, or does this happen using a standard debian-pure64 (gcc-3.3 based) installation too? A quote from mysql bug #3483: I've tried 4.0.23, 4.1.9, 4.1.10 on two dual opterons with 8 gig ram running Debian 3.1 pure64 gcc3.4. Tried kernels 2.6.11-rc1-mm1 and 2.6.11-rc2. the gcc-3.4 (now gcc-4.0) branch is based on an unreleased, experimental compiler version (http://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-4.0/). The code is likely to break and _not intended for production_. Again: if you want to run a production system with 64bit userland, pick debian-pure64, and not the experimental gcc-3.4/gcc-4.0 based branch.

Kind regards Frederik Schueler I haven't tried running it yet myself, but I am just on the Debian-Pure64 branch. I did see the notices that gcc-3.4 is experimental. I first came across the notice of this bug at Joe Stumps page: http://www.joestump.net/193251484/running-apache-mysql-php-on-debian-amd64.html Not sure what version he was running, but he put a comment in on the bug too. So it might be fine in Pure64 mode then? Thanks -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
