MySQL Upgrades on SME 5.x
« on: March 13, 2002, 08:23:48 AM »
Has anyone sucessfully upgraded MySQL on an SME 5.x server?  I tried following Mark Fleeson's HowTo, but could not get it to work on either a 5.0 or 5.1 SME server.  When I try to install the rpm (using -iv --force) I get the following failed dependency errors:

     mysql conflicts with 3.23.36-1
     mysql-server conflicts with mysql=server-3.23.36-1

I get similar errors if I use rpm -Uvh instead.

I have sucessfully upgraded MySQL on a 4.1.2 server, though not the same version of MySQL that I am trying now.  I may setup a 4.1.2 server just to try upgrading with the most recent version of MySQL, but I don't think the version of MySQL is the problem.  

Any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated.
