How To

UPDATING TO MYSQL 4.0

1. STOP MYSQL

/etc/rc.d/init.d/mysql stop

2. REMOVE OLD RPM

rpm -e --nodeps mysql-client mysql-server
rpm -e mysql-devel
rpm -e mysqlclient9

3. DOWNLOAD MySQL 4.0. FROM WWW.MYSQL.COM
http://www.mysql.com/downloads/mysql-4.0.html
in a fresh directory
Note: this shows 4.0.15 but replace this with the actual version downloaded.
INSTALL NEW RPMS:

rpm -Uhv MySQL-shared-compat-4.0.15-0.i386.rpm
rpm -Uhv MySQL-server-4.0.15-0.i386.rpm
rpm -Uhv MySQL-client-4.0.15-0.i386.rpm
rpm -Uvh MySQL-devel-4.0.15-0.i386.rpm

4. CONFIGURE

chkconfig --levels 2345 mysql on
rm /etc/rc.d/rc7.d/S90mysqld

mv /etc/rc.d/init.d/mysql /etc/rc.d/init.d/mysqld
ln -s /etc/rc.d/init.d/mysqld /etc/rc.d/rc7.d/S90mysqld

/sbin/e-smith/config setprop mysqld LocalNetworkingOnly no (enable remote access)
/sbin/e-smith/expand-template /root/.my.cnf
ln -s /usr/sbin/mysqld /usr/libexec/ (for conf-mysql-password script)

service mysqld restart

OPTIONAL: INNODB SUPPORT (information from Haj)

mkdir /etc/e-smith/templates-custom/etc/my.cnf
cp /etc/e-smith/templates/etc/my.cnf/009innodb /etc/e-smith/templates-custom/etc/my.cnf
pico /etc/e-smith/templates-custom/etc/my.cnf/009innodb

And comment the only line it contains so the file should look like this:

#skip-innodb

Save the file then do:

/sbin/e-smith/expand-template /etc/my.cnf
service mysqld restart
