Topic: RHEL4: Can I upgrade to php 5 and keep MySQL 4.1???

I'm using RHEL4ES (up2date) and I like to install and run PHP 5.3 from your repo, but can I keep my old MySQL 4.1.22 running and without any issue?
The point is I can't update MySQL because I'm running Sun1ASP and this app requires version 4 from MySQL.

Thank you!
Pablo

Re: RHEL4: Can I upgrade to php 5 and keep MySQL 4.1???

Yes, it's possible (but probably a bad idea, as MySQL 4 is not maintained upstream)

You need to install compat-mysql51 (from remi-test) before updating PHP. This provides the client library required by php-mysql.

Laptop:  Fedora 38 + rpmfusion + remi (SCL only)
x86_64 builder: Fedora 39 + rpmfusion + remi-test
aarch64 builder: RHEL 9 with EPEL
Hosting Server: CentOS 8 Stream with EPEL, rpmfusion, remi
