Is there a reason my FreeBSD servers are not getting the mysql 4.1.18 update?

[jackie46]

UPCP does not update MySQL to 4.1.18 on FreeBSD. /scripts/mysqlup does not do it either. All my RH boxes have been updated to 4.1.18 but FreeBSD is stuck at MySQL 4.1.10a. Whats the reason?

Anyone use freebsd on these forums?

Hi,

I'm on freebsd. I had to use portupgrade before to upgrade mysql package to latest version from port collection. Make sure your ports collection is up to date by running cvsup.

I would never run cvsup on the Freebsd server running cPanel. I dont think thats the way its supposed to work. Isnt cPanel supposed to be upgrading MySQL via a call to the ports collection? At least thats why it tries to do when you run upcp the problem being it not getting the upgrade for MySQL.

I use portsnap, it's better than cvsup. Portupgrade updated mysql to 4.1.19 for me. I've never really like how cpanel handled updating the ports tree. If you make a call to the ports tree and it's not updated then you won't get the latest version.

cd /usr/ports/databases/mysql41-server
make deinstall
make reinstall

it successfully make my mysql up2dated at the last verstion
at this moment it is 4 1 19
