trying to upgrade mysql from 5.1 to 5.5 on debian
Our web server has Debian, and mysql 5.1. I wanted to upgrade it to 5.5, so I downloaded the mysql-5.5.28-debian6.0-i686.deb file. I backed up the 5.1 installation and uninstalled it with:
Code:
apt-get remove mysql-server-5.1 Code:
dpkg -i mysql-5.5.28-debian6.0-i686.deb Code:
/opt/mysql/server-5.5 Please help, thanks! |

Alternately you could upgrade to Debian Wheezy, which includes MySQL 5.5 and is only a couple of months away from achieving the "Stable" designation as Squeeze's lifecycle begins to wind down.

I was able to get 5.5.28 installed. Another guy copied the instructions that Ovais Tariq created on your link and added a few key things that helped me be able to get it to work:
