There are 5.0 and 5.1 rpms for 10.0 in the buildservice:
http://software.opensuse.org/search?q=mysql&baseproject=SUSE%3ASL-10.0 ,
if you're lucky, it'll work on 9.3 too. If not, you can take the src.rpm
and rebuild.

But it should then shutdown and start normally, doesn't it?
/var/run/mysql/.protected is just a trick to be able to run
mysql_upgrade from the init script without knowing the mysql root password.

Yeah, it's not _that_ bug issue as long as your data is there, but still
the fact that mysqld sometimes doesn't restart after the sec. update
scares me. But I weren't able to reproduce it yet.

Hi,

the 'duplicate column' errors come from mysql_fix_privilege_tables.sql
and are in fact harmless (see https://bugzilla.novell.com/228248 , fixed
in 10.3). However, it seems that the init script thinks that something
failed during the upgrade :-(. Could you try

  # touch /var/lib/mysql/.run-mysql_upgrade
  # rcmysql restart

? Also please file a bugreport and assign it to [EMAIL PROTECTED] I'm
going to try it myself.

And what's the problem? 'rpm -Uvh mysql-5.0.*.rpm mysql-client-5.0.*.rpm
libmysqlclient15-5.0.*.rpm' will give you a working mysql5 setup. And
it'll keep the 4.x libs for apps linked against it (php).

If you have the possibility to test your app in a testing environment,
then this is definitely the recommended way. rpm -Uvh should work as
well btw, or adding the repo to yast (if you want to update all packages).

I can't answer the first question. As for buildservice, there used to be
rpms of 5.1 beta version in the same repository, but I removed them, as
it caused problems when building other packages. I'm going to resurrect
them however (after 10.3 or so). So the answer to the second question is
"soon after the official release" ;)

They appeared recently because the SLES9 builds were broken previously:

- fixed build for older distributions in the buildservice

This has nothing to do with SP4.

Getting the php5-mysql extension working with the new mysql lib is
another story (btw, I removed mysql-beta yesterday, so it's just a
question of time until the packages are ready). Let's first focus on the
mysql_upgrade failure reported in the original mail.

Please do *not* mix different versions. Use only the 5.0.41 packages

OK, then I'll simply delete the mysql-beta package (it's not quite
maintained anyway ;)) and perhaps put it somewhere else later. I never
liked the idea of projects grouping several unrelated (and sometimes
conflisting) packages like server:database...

Not sure whether this is the cause of Patrick's problem, we'll see.

Not good. Did you update all the packages, inc. the client library and
the client programs (run rpm -qa '*mysql*'; rpm -q --changelog 
| head)? The client programs are in mysql-client.rpm, the library used
to be in mysql-shared.rpm, now it's in libmysqlclient15.rpm. The current
and 10.1 version of the library *should* be compatible, but if you mixed
them, then it *could* be the reason.

Anyway, on Factory x86_64 it works fine...

Which sapi (apache2 / fastcgi)? If you use the apache2 module

it has privileges of the wwwrun user.

If you mean bug 236680, then please reopen it if you think the fix needs

I know what you mean, but such statement could be misleading: 10.0, inc.
the php4-4.4.0 package, _is_ still supported by security updates (but of

Yes it's a mirror, in fact software.o.o just redirects downloads to one
of the mirrors. BTW Cristian is one of the packagers of server:php

Some modules were merged (like php5-mysqli is now part of php5-mysql),

[opensuse] unofficial php4 rpms for 10.2 and 10.1 available

For now Factory is used instead of 10.2, I'll change it as soon as 10.2

Please keep in mind that php4 is more or less discontinued upstream, so
relying on it is not sustainable... I'll drop these packages when 10.0

Uh, pardon?

We _do_ ship php4 with SUSE Linux 10.0, which is going be supported for
about a year from now on. If you want even longer support, look at
sles9. What we don't support is running an obsolete php version on the
newest SUSE Linux / OpenSUSE version, but I offer to provide unofficial
builds via the Build Service (see my mail above). Despite of this, you
call us "idiots".

Thank you! :-/

The sad part of the story is that people who are able to "compile it
themselves" don't seem to need php4, and people who need it aren't
willing to do the packaging :(

So, given that this is not the first request, I can repack the 10.0 php4
for 10.1 and 10.2 in the buildservice next week, but do not expect too
much support for it (that is: I can continue adding security fixes from
10.0, but bugreports without attached patch will have very very low
priority). Upstream doesn't care much about php4 either.
