MySQL 4.x and MySQL 5 both on same server

[jeephp]

Hi there,

We are developing web based applications for our clients. We have needed to upgrade the server so that we can run MySQL 4.x and MySQL 5 both on same server.

We need direction so that we can run MySQL 4.x and MySQL5 together on same server, so some sites would be work in MySQL 4.x and some of them will work in MySQL 5

Expecting support to achieve this.

Thanks !!

I imagine your setup is for testing purposes, though? MySQL 5 is completely backwards-compatible with 4.1, so you should be able to run any 4.1 compatible application on 5.
