Topic: Urgent: MySQL v.5.0.92 to v.5.5.17

Hello Remi,

I've installed remi repo on my server (Centos 5.7)
I've currently MySQL v.5.0.92 and I want to upgrade it to v5.5.17

I type this;

yum --disablerepo=* --enablerepo=remi,remi-test list mysql mysql-server

Result

Try with --noplugins option

Huum... don't really understand...

Perhaps an issue/conflict with MySQL-server RPM from Oracle.
Could you try removing this package ?

Re: Urgent: MySQL v.5.0.92 to v.5.5.17

u meant, I should remove current mysql?

yes, remove MySQL-server

If I remove it without upgrade, I'll lose everything in database...

Re: Urgent: MySQL v.5.0.92 to v.5.5.17

Removing an application (RPM) never affect the data.

Of course, you need to backup your database, which is a "must" before a upgrade.
