Its a more updated, secure and reliable MySQL version to work with WHMCS, correct? Thanks 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WHMCS Chris Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 Hello, I would almost always recommend running the latest version of any software as long as it's published as a STABLE release. So short answer, yes - run MySQL 5.5. Regards, 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But in my case there is just one problem: i have already installed WHMCS on my server running MySQL 5.1 two days ago. So my question to you is if i now can safely update on my server, the MySQL from 5.1 to 5.5 without causing any problems to WHMCS.. or will making this update will bring problems to the actual WHMCS installation? Thanks 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WHMCS Chris Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 Hello, If you check MySQL's documentation, they state that users should have no problem with their databases when upgrading in minor versions. As any time you're making an update to a major software, you should backup the data that is involved in the update, ie: MySQL Databases. However you should be fine. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks you will have no problems upgrading while still running WHMCS. If you have root access and a root WHM it is a simple click Home » Software » MySQL Upgrade then chose MySQL 5.5 and click next and follow instructions 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
