Upgrading mysql

php4us · 08-15-2005, 01:42 AM

Hi,

I'm using Mandrake 10, I think. I'd like to upgrade mysql to it's latest stable version. Is there a way to do this on Mandrake? Somethink like Debian's apt-get command? Or even something easy to do if not easier than that? Or can you point me to a guide to do this?

Thanks for the help.

urpmi should do you fine, although i assume apt-get for rpm will work on mandrake too.

Thanks. Actually, I've been trying to make urmpi work. Been reading alot about it now. I think my current problem right now is updating it. What update server should I use?

I'm looking at updating to MySQL 4.1. Unfortunately, official update servers such as ftp://raven.cslab.vt.edu/pub/linux/m...icial/updates/ does have an update for mysql but only on the latest 4.0 release -- not 4.1. I believe Mandrake 10.2 has MySQL4.1 already installed. How can I update my 10.0 to the latest MySQL 4.1 using urpmi?
