Hey, I expect that the biggest problem could be the mySQL server, also it's very much depending on the existing * httpd-configuration (loaded modules) * php-configuration if it's modified a lot from the default config that comes with RHEL4.
RHEL comes with SELinux - make sure it works with that (maybe it's turned on already, so it wouldn't be a problem). Also, if you have a very customized TYPO3 that needs special config (e.g. if you have WebDAV with TYPO3 BE User auth and mod_auth_mysql) it's possible that it's not working a lot. For the mysql upgrade, I'd do a backupdump of the v4 server: # mysqldump -u DBuser -p DBname > dbname.sql and then you could feed the DB to the upgraded table or even completely reinstall mysql and then put the dump in like that: # mysql --default-character-set=utf8 -u DBuser -p DBname < dbname.sql Bing Du wrote: > Hi, > > Here is our current configuration: > > Typo3 4.0.6 > RHEL 4 > MySQL 4.x > PHP 4.x > Apache httpd 2.0.52 > > We're going to upgrade the typo3 server to: > > Typo3 4.0.6 (no change) > RHEL 5 > MySQL 5.x (comes with RHEL 5 by default) > PHP 5.x (comes with RHEL 5 by default) > Apache httpd 2.x (comes with RHEL 5 by default) > > Anybody has done this before and would like to share your experience?
