Have you upgraded MySQL yet? 4.0 => 4.1

If so, what procedure did you use?

From cpanel.net I see this procedure.


Quote:
1. Create a backup of your current databases. I did this by backing up the /var/lib/mysql folder into a tar archive. Its advisable to stop MySQL first, to files in use can be read and databases cannot be changed whilst you upgrade.

Do this using: tar -czf archivename.tar.gz /var/lib/mysql

2. Go to WHM > Tweak Settings and tick MySQL 4.1. Click ok, wait 30sec and click the link as instructed. When thats completed open /etc/my.cnf with pico/nano and insert old-passwords under the mysqld tag. e.g.:

[mysqld]
old-passwords

Then Save, exit and restart MySQL.

3. Recompile apache either with Apache Update in WHM or Easyapache, both do practically the same thing.

4. Reinstall/update perl:

wget http://layer2.cpanel.net/perl587installer.tar.gz
tar zxf perl587installer.tar.gz
cd perl587installer
./install

Once Perl completes, also run /scripts/fixquotas to ensure that everything is set properly, and thats it!
