I need to upgrade mysql 5.0 to mysql 5.1.
Do i need to carry out anymore steps then these.
I will log into the server and do
rpm -Uvh MySQL-server-community-5.1.63-1.rhel5.x86_64
the earlier version of mysql was installed using yum install .
Is this the correct approach ?
After installing do i need to upgrade the indvidual database themselves if so how ?
