Hi. I've happily been running MySQL 4.1 on my CentOS 4.1 x86_64 server. But I need to upgrade to MySQL 5. Any recommendations on how to accomplish this without too much pain? I guess I'll need to get RPMs from the MySQL website.
These RPMS are available in the centosplus repository. Make sure you take a mysqldump of your existing DB first before the upgrade as a precaution, but it should be a smooth transition.
yum --enablerepo centosplus install mysql (and mysql-server or whatever else you want) should be all you need.
