Transferring Servers + MySQL version

[woostar]

Hi there,

I'm planning on moving servers soon (cpanel to cpanel). Does it matter that I'm planning on going back to MySQL version 5.0.77 (on the new server) rather than 5.0.91 that I'm on now? Will the DB's transition ok?

Sorry if this is in the wrong place (a few forums fitted the subject).

Regards,
W.

Hey,

There won't be much difference's b/w the mysql versions 5.0.77 & 5.0.91. If you migrate an account from the server with Mysql 5 to mysql 4 may cause some issue.

Is there a reason you are going back to an older MySQL version on the new machine? I'm just curious as typically you would want to run the latest version that cPanel itself provides for MySQL 5.0, which is currently MySQL 5.0.92 on all tiers other than 11.28.83-STABLE_51164, which is on 5.0.91.

Thanks for the replies

Hi Tristan. I need to go back to 5.0.77 because I forgot turn off the MySQL upgrade in WHM which gave me 5.0.91 and messed up a custom written sphinx daemon (that was designed for 5.0.77).
