xoops 2.5.0 amd mysql

Hi everyone,

It's been a while since I've been here. Things have moved on a lot in 6 months

Anyone installed/upgraded to 2.5.0 on a server running MySQL 4?

I want to upgrade (of course I do!) but want to know what wouldn't work/what I'd miss out on if I did. Would I still have a working site?

I'm still on xoops 2.4.3 but have the packages to get to 2.4.4 and 2.4.5, so assume an upgrade from 2.4.5

All advice gratefully received.

Mamba, if you read this.... Hello I see I still have to the rank of "moderator" You might want to review this

Regards to all

Hiya Michael - knew you'd be first to reply

Yes, I'm back and will try to be as helpful as before but there's some catching up to do otherwise I'll lead others astray!

Happy to moderate but I won't have the time that I used to - logging in when I should be at work if much more difficult than it used to be. Happy to do what I can otherwise if that's okay?

I certainly won't be offended if you redesignate me

Can't believe that my poxy hosts are still on MySQL 4+...... just asking the question now before I take my custom elsewhere

Hope you are well? I'll be clicking the "Donate" button shortly

I am happy to have you back with us!

Do what you can, help where you can - this has been always our motto here

Thanks to version 2.5.0, XOOPS is taking off, so we'll need all the help we can get.

I am working right now on our Module Repository - making sure that all download links are working - I should be done later on today. Then the next step is to update the XOOPS Version, these modules are working on. This will be another challenge....

Reg. MySQL 4, I don't know, I don't think, anybody bothered to test it. It might work, but PHP 5.2+ is more critical.

And thanks for clicking the "Donate" button!

Thanks Michael - will donate next time I have my wallet at desk (prob tomorrow!)

I've asked the question of my hosting company and will wait for their reply before upgrading - there's conflicting info depending upon what I read. Otherwise, I guess I'll have to test with MySQL4+ - might be okay

I'm on PHP 5.2+ so no issues there.

MySQL
Client API version 5.0.45

Is this okay? Different to what is reported by the host's Control Panel

TIA

I really don't know - I guess, you'll need to test it.

But much easier is to get your host to update to MySQL 5+, or switch the host.

Hosting switched (after other issues finally made me kick them into touch!)

Now on:

XOOPS Version XOOPS 2.4.5
PHP Version 5.2.16
mySQL Version 5.1.54-log

Which means:

1. I'm definitely back alive on here
2. I can upgrade to 2.5.0
3. Contribute again (but only from home these days )

Happy bunny
