Re: Upgrading of mysql database
How would I do an inplace upgrade? -Original Message- From: Johan De Meersman To: Machiel Richards Cc: mysql mailing list Subject: Re: Upgrading of mysql database Date: Mon, 22 Nov 2010 15:25:44 +0100 That would work, yes.

Re: Upgrading of mysql database
Replace the software - if you're using packaged versions, they should take care of most anything. If not, there's mysql-upgrade or some script. See the online docs for specifics.

Upgrading of mysql database
Hi All Sorry for all my posts today but this one client is keeping me busy. the version of MySQL installed on the ubuntu server is 5.0.51a-3ubuntu5.8-log as this was the latest one available in the repository. We will need to upgrade this to version 5.1.53. Am I correct in assuming the following steps? 1. setup version 5.1.53 on the machine (different port) 2. shutdown the current database. 3. create backup file 4. restore backup 5. change port to 3306 6. startup new database. 7. disable the old database so that it would not start up during reboot.
