MySQL 4.0.5 (beta) - 4.1 Migration Gotchas

am 11.01.2005 18:44:21 von James Frankman

We are evaluating migrating our production server from MySQL 4.0.5 to =
version 4.1.=20

For those who have already gone through this exercise, I am looking for =
documentation, as well as your own personal opinion on how smooth/bumpy =
the migration was, as well as any "gotchas" not necessarily mentioned in =
the official documentation. I am aware of a password issue when =
migrating over from 4.0 to 4.1, are there any other issues I should be =
aware of?=20

Any feedback is appreciated.

If you take a look at the old posts you'll find some information about
migration, some of the issues I've found were:

1) The famous password problem, easily solved by running the correct
script located at the "scripts" folder of your 4.1 installation.
2) The syntax of the mysqlimport command changed (at least I noticed
that my statement worked before and for the new version I must put the
--local option for it to work)
3) I've found that the option "default-storage-engine=MyISAM" prevents
the server from running, dunno why, so I removed it from the ini file.

It worked just fine for me after this little problems.

Best regards,
