RE: Upgrading MySQL. Caveats or Cautions anyone?
Hi, I found that the Intel C++ version needed some libraries which weren't on my RH9.0 system (this was when upgrading to 4.1.4g): libcprts.so.5 libcxa.so.5 libunwind.so.5 This seems to have been reported many times e.g. http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=4408 The resolve was to get the libs from: ftp://ftp.mysql.com/pub/mysql/download/icc-8.0-libs.tar.gz MD5 checksum: 0970bbfb9fb076dfe995b3176bf90fad Then extract them and put them somewhere sensible (I chose /usr/local/lib) and then run ldconfig to find them. Without these libs none of the mysql apps would start. I guess 4.1.5g may have packaged the libs with the tarball, I don't know.

Hello: Am currently using Ver 11.18 Distrib 3.23.58 on Linux 2.4.20-20.9. (RH 9.0). I'd like to upgrade to the current version. I would like to know if there are any cautions to observe, or any prepartory steps to take. If I look at the following URL: http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/4.0.html I see some things that confuse me a bit: I see this label: Linux (x86, glibc-2.2, static, gcc) ## Well, I've got glibc-2.3 And I see this label: Linux (x86, glibc-2.3, dynamic, Intel C++ Compiler) ## Well, glibc-2.3 looks good, *but* I don't have ## the Intel C++ Compiler. Just gcc (GCC) 3.2.2 Comments and pointers to docs would be appreciated.

You can ignore both of those if you use the binaries. -Eric On Fri, 17 Sep 2004 18:43:02 -0800, Tim Johnson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hello: > Am currently using Ver 11.18 Distrib 3.23.58 > on Linux 2.4.20-20.9.
