RE: [cobalt-users] MySQL upgrade from RPM

I recently went through this with no problem.  Dump your db's just in case,
uninstall the RPM, then install the PKG.  All your db's should still be in
place.

Subject: [cobalt-users] MySQL upgrade from RPM


I have an install of MySQL 3.22.32-1 from RPM.  This was prior to
pkg.nl.cobalt.com offering pkg.

Well now I am ready to uprade to 3.23.37-1 package on the site.  I am just
wondering if anyone has been through an upgrade from RPM to package.

Will I lose my Data?  I have backed it up, but who knows...

Is this a big deal our should I just uninstall the RPM and install the
package?

Server is RAQ3

Thanks,
Scott
