Upgrading MySQL on Panther Server

I need to upgrade MySQL on my server running Panther Server (not client) (10.3.9) to at least 4.1 if not 5. Is there are way to get it to install and connect with the web services including the default PHP installation? I've Googled this in every way possible, but I can't find an answer. Your help is desperately needed. Thanks.

Are you looking to just install a newer version of MySQL, or are you looking up upgrade - that is, do you have existing databases that you want to upgrade, or are you just starting out.
Either way your starting point will be the MySQL download page where you can get installers for various versions of Mac OS X.
Upgrading/migrating instructions for converting your existing databases can be found at this page.

  • Upgrade from Panther Server with Raid1

    Trying to upgrade from Panther Server with software Raid1. Upgrade fails with "Could not prepare disk". I'm guessing it has to do with the RAID1? I need to upgrade and not do a clean install.
    Could I upgrade to tiger server first?

    Wow, Panther server. Ah the memories... Anyway, what you are running into is an issue with the actual Apple RAID software versions. If you run this command:
    diskutil checkRaid
    You should see in the result:
    Apple RAID version: 1
    That is your problem. Tiger and Leopard will only install on Apple RAID version 2 which was introduced in Tiger. But, all is not lost. Apple has provided a method to upgrade the RAID version without a break and a recreation. Again, using diskutil, run this command to see your options:
    diskutil convertRaid
    You will get:
    Convert a 1.x RAID set (Mac OS 10.3 Panther or earlier) to a 2.x RAID set.
    The filesystem must be mounted and resizeable (i.e. Journaled HFS+).
    Ownership of the affected disk is required.
    Example: diskutil convertRAID /Volumes/RAID
    If the name of the volume is Data, then diskutil convertRaid /Volumes/Data should provide the fix you need.
    Boot from your Leopard install media and then before attempting to install, open the Terminal and use the command above. Provided you formated as HFS+ journaled you will be fine.
    *Make sure you have a backup!*
    Oh, and if this fails, then run a diskutil list and hope that you did not install the OS 9 firewire drivers. If you did, then nuking and paving is likely your only option. In that case, I would suggest a clone, then a Raid break, then a creation of a new RAID set, then a restore, then an upgrade.
    Again, make sure you back everything up. Be ready to revert back to your clone. Stop all services before upgrading. Export all users and groups. Just be safe. Panther to Leopard can be a tricky upgrade. If you are using MySQL, do a dump before attempting.
    Hope this helps. Backup first. Backup many places.

    The MySQL client that the error refers to isn't the version
    of MySQL,
    but the MySQL library bundled with PHP. It sounds as though
    your hosting
    company has upgraded to MySQL 4.1 or higher, but is still
    using PHP 4.
    > I'm not sure how to edit the connection string to make

    You can't. It's the way that the user account passwords are
    stored in
    MySQL. You need to get the hosting company to upgrade to PHP
    5 or to
    reset the passwords in MySQL using the OLD_PASSWORD()
    function. This
    needs to be done by someone with top-level administrative
    privileges on
    the database.

  • Upgrade MySQL in Snow Leopard Server

    Hi all. This is my first post.
    I have a Mac Mini Server with Mac OS X Server 10.6.8 (aka. Snow Leopard Server)
    wanted to update the native MySQL. I followed these instructions
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4006
    Now I know that it is parallel installation of MySQL.
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/15535136#15535136
    Finally,I installed MySQL 5.5.15 from MySQL.com (x86 dmg file)
    Now I have three MySQL servers in the system. Runs only the oldest (native 5.0.92)
    I want to:
    1) Remove unnecessary MySQL servers.
    2) I would like to MySQL service could be run in the Server Admin.app. If this is not possible to run the “MySQL Preference Pane” in System Preferences.
    If this is not possible then I would be able to run in "MySQL Preference Pane" in System Preferences.
    Working with AS is probably possible.http://www.jamesbantz.com/2010/08/08/upgrading-mysql-on-mac-os-x-10-6-snow-leopa rd-server/#more-172 (See step 6)
    Now I have a “little problem” with the distinction which files belong which MySQL.
    Please help

    Welcome to the forums.
    The cited Apple directions in HT4006 are for adding headers and client components for Mac OS X Server for MySQL, and not particularly for upgrading MySQL on Mac OS X Server.  (That may well cause problems.)
    How good are your pre-installation backups?  I'd roll those in, and undo the HT4006 changes, and (if you're not going to scratch this whole upgrade) follow what Mr Bantz describes in his posting.
    Irrespective of the particular path followed here, you do also still get to "own" all of these changes, including the on-going maintenance and upgrades, which means that you own any security problems, the inevitable software upgrades and updates, and whatever other fixes might be needed.
    Alternatively, consider moving to Mac OS X Server Lion (10.7), as it does not contain MySQL, so you can load whatever MySQL you want and (so long as you keep it from getting tangled with PostgreSQL) you're good to go.
    I would not generally expect to be able to use Server Admin or the other tools to use or manage your local MySQL.  The Server Admin tools are not set up for these sorts of changes and have a history of getting tangled when the underlying servers are changed.   If you do manage this goal and do have Server Admin working and whether following Mr Bantz's directions or via some other means, then your changes still might not survive any particular future Mac OS X Server upgrade, or Server Tools upgrade.  (Which means you'll have to debug and rework the changes, or find somebody that has figured out what broken and follow those instructions.)
    If you discover you have the need for these sorts of upgrades often, I'd suggest loading and using Linux or one of the BSDs.  Installing newer versions of stuff means more work and sometimes far more work, and tends to un-do what Apple provides, and tends to cause problems like you've encountered here.  In all seriousness, Linux or BSD is the platform you'll want, if you find yourself tweaking; they're set up for exactly this sort of tweaking.  Mac OS X and Mac OS X Server aims at a different market.

  • Upgrading MySQL 4.0 to MySQL 5.0

    Has anyone upgrading MySQL 4.0 to MySQL 5.0 On Mac OS X Server 10.3.9? If so any problems? I know leopard comes with MySQL 5.0 but I just want to upgrade my Panther Server to MySQL 5.0. Any help, links would be appreciated.

    I went ahead and installed the 5.0.18 standard upgrade for 10.3
    all I did was turn off 4.0.24 before I installed.
    I started it up but noticed the main account didn't work.
    They needed to be upgraded,
    so that's what I did by connecting to mysql:
    UPDATE mysql.user SET Password = OLD_PASSWORD('newpassword')
    WHERE Host = 'localhost' AND User = 'usernamehere';
    FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
    That got it working for me.
    I tried to connect with my phpmyadmin and import my old users and tables.
    Tables went fine but users also needed to get their passwords updated.
    I didn't know the password for all the accounts, so I stopped mysql and started my old version.
    It worked fine.
    I also upgraded php to 5.0.4 using the package from entropy.
    It was no problems at all. It run fine.

       Was this ever answered? I am confronted with the same issue and am finding need for concise instructions on how to complete the upgrades. Could SAP have made this aspect any more difficult??

  • Advice pls on Panther server

    We have need of a Carbon application that runs on Panther but not on Tiger. Although all our client desktops have been upgraded to Tiger (certainly the Intel CPUs are), that means that people aren't able to run this app on their local machines.
    But I still have a server running Panther Server. I would like to install this, and let people do a "remote login", such that they can run the application remotely, but use it on their local machines. I considered doing Remote Desktop, but that isn't exactly what I need - it will allow the local user control of the same GUI. I'm looking for the OSX equivalent of rsh - such that the binary runs on the Panther machine, but the input and output GUI runs on the local machine. Is there such a solution? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

    If it's a Cocoa app, there's nothing native that will do this. It is supported by X11 apps, but not Cocoa.
    There's one other possibility - OSXVNC uses some combination of VNC and Fast User Switching to give multiple users a separate GUI login on the VNC server.
    I've never used it myself, but the description sounds like it might let you do what you want.

  • Panther server, move from single drive to RAID 1

    Hello,
    I am trying to find out if this can be done on a system (Xserve G3) with Panther server running on it. I know this is old, but right now the school will not upgrade the server.
    It has the original 60GB hard drive and is running out of space. I would like to replace it with two 500GB HD's using software RAID.
    In Panther, can you clone or CCC the OS and move it to a RAID1 from a single drive, or do we need to install and configure a new installation on the RAID set?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Mike

    There were major changes in Disk format from 10.3 Panther to 10.4 Tiger, especially in RAID drives. I believe the 10.4 Server Installer converts your Boot RAID (if applicable) but does not deal with your data-only RAID drives. In the case you are proposing, the upgrade from 10.3 to 10.4 may require you to copy your data-only RAID drives yet again.
    My older SCSI RAID drives which ran fine in 10.3 were not recognized as having a valid Driver (of any description) in 10.4. The old drives could not be mounted, and therefore could not be "promoted" to 10.4 RAID Drives. Luckily, RAID tools in 10.4 Tiger are much improved.
    Using only one additional full-size drive, I was able to move the array to a spare Mac, install 10.3 to get them recognized, then Network-mount and copy them onto a single-member RAID array in 10.4 Server. Creating a single member of a Mirrored Array required some fancy command-line work in 10.4 Server.
    The bottom line: If you can upgrade to 10.4 Server first, it will be much less work (and much less risk).

  • Can see, but can't print to network printer in Panther Server

    I'm running Panther Server 10.3.9 in a vLAN with 16 OS 9 clients. They all
    print to 2 Xerox Phaser 6200 and 6250 network printers. I am unable to print
    to either one from a G4 running Server 10.3.9. I have limited desk space so a USB-attached printer, while
    more convenient, is impractical. When I run Classic from the Server, I can print to the Phasers.
    *> that means that OS X is seeing the printers. When you print in Classic, what*
    *> happens is that the Classic drivers (LaserWriter 8) hands off the print jobs*
    *> to the appropriate OS X drivers, which do the actual printing.*
    Although I'm using OS X Server, I don't have Print Services turned on. I never could get the OS 9 clients to print the way I wanted and I didn't want to have a single point of failure for 16 clients if the Fileserver (Panther Server) went down. So they print to the Phaser themselves using, as you said, Laserwriter 8.
    I can connect to administer them both with a browser.
    *> this definitely means that you can see the printers.*
    Yes. Everytime. I can reset them and anything else I want to do administering them with a browser (Safari).
    I have all the drivers I should need (new re-installs), but print jobs stop every time.
    *> Does this mean that the drivers are installed and are visible in Print & Fax?*
    Yes. I have both a 6200 and a 6250. Both drivers are visible.
    Is there a log file or some way I can see why these jobs fail?]
    *> There are logs, some of which are visible in CUPS using the browser.*
    >
    *> What error messages are you getting?*
    What is CUPS? I've heard of it, but don't know what it is or does. I think when I had ServerAdmin running a lot, there were CUPS files that were taking up hard drive space and I had to periodically delete them in Terminal.
    I'm not getting ANY error messages. It's like the print job just evaporates before it gets to the printer. There are never print jobs showing in the list under the Print Queue.
    FWIW, I can see the Phaser 6250 (but not the 6200) under Rendezvous printers.
    I've tried AppleTalk, IP printing, and Rendezvous. I can always see the printer, but can never print.
    AAAARRRRGGGGGHHHHH!
    Do you have any pearls of wisdom?
    Thanks
    mrcrna

    I was having the same problem, and basically it comes down to Epson not having driver support for networking. The solution, install better drivers!
    Go to: http://gimp-print.sourceforge.net/MacOSX.php and download the latest version of the drivers. Once you've installed them go to Print & Fax in System Preferences, delete the last print setup (the little minus sign), add the new one but importantly from the driver menu select the Gutenprint driver. That should solve the problem, certainly worked for me!

  • Upgrade from Windows Home Server 2011

    Even though Windows Server 2012 Essentials is being mentioned as a replacement for Windows Home Server 2011, there doesn't seem to be any documentation or mention of can you upgrade from Windows Home Server 2011 to Windows Server 2012 Essentials?
    Will this work with the beta download and will we then be able to upgrade this version to the RC and/or release version?
    As you may guess I have a Windows Home Server 2011 and am interested in looking at Windows Server 2012 Essentials to see what it offers me. The storage spaces sounds exactly what I want to replace the drive extender on the previous home server version. The
    problem is that I don't mind sacrificing my present server box by installing the beta but it would be nice if it actually retained what settings it could via an upgrade option, which I could then have a chance of using with a proper release version.
     

    Just clarifying about the 'upgrade path' and 32b vs 64b.
    Yes, no in-place upgrade. However, one could theorise about some form of 'migration' being possible, where the list of users, the content of your shares, the current backups, would be 'moved' from old box to new.
    I was in fact pretty sure no such process existed. (Wouldn't it be neat though? AND in future _at least theoretically_ possible, using processes similar to SBS AD migration.)
    From this perspective putting the new box onto the network is similar to replacing WHSv1 with WHS11, in that nothing is carried over. No gain, but no lesser. Working on currently available information.
    The later comment about the work laptop is, TTBOMK, a resounding 'NO'. When attempting to join a member of another AD the 'connect' process stated 'You must 1st remove the PC from the other AD'. I haven't tested this extensively but believe that PC's _capable_
    of operating in an AD (Pro, vs Home, versions) will be made members of the WS12E AD. It is only PC's that do not have 'domain join' capability that are left in workgroup mode.
    TTBOMK, AFAICS, so far, etc...

  • Mac os x wiki server can't authenticate user password from active directory recently after we upgraded to windows 2008 server.

    after upgraded to windows 2008 server, our  mac os x wiki server can't authenticate user password anymore. How can I re-bind the wiki server to the AD again? thanks in advance.

    Solved it by deleting the user and creating a new one with the same userID.
    Maybe it occured because I marked the "user has to change password after first login" box when resetting the password but didn't yet allow him to do so in the webpages menu?!?

  • Can't get SMTP working with SSL on Panther Server

    mail client is mail.app
    mail server on panther server (ie the default one)
    all works fine without SSL
    if i turn on the SSL option for IMAP in mail.app, it works
    but if I turn on the SSL option for SMTP, it doesn't.
    Mail.app tells me that "Starting TLS failed on SMTP server"
    the server SMTP log tells me "Lost connection after STARTTLS"
    Means nothing to me.
    What do I do / hit / press / delete / click / copy / edit?
    I'm guessing that TLS here is not the Times Literary Supplement, right?
    Thanks for help and stuff
    G5 1.6GHz    

    In Server Admin, make sure you set SMTP to 'use' not to 'require'
    Otherwise other servers won't be able to send mail to you.
    You still need to authenticate with whatever your server requires.
    In Outgoing Mail Server 'Server Settings':
    Port should be default of 25 unless you decide to setup an alternate port (a very good idea, but save that for later)
    Set Authentication to whatever your server requires (same as when not using ssl)

  • How can I share a Tiger server's User database to a Panther server?

    I need some help to set this up. Keep in mind I do not have a DNS server.
    I have a Tiger server with Xserve and an older Panther server, both on the same local network. I have a whole bunch of users setup on the Tiger server. The Panther server does not have any users setup on it. I do not want to have to type in all the users all over again in the Panther server. What I'd like to be able to do is somehow share and syncronize the user database on the Tiger server with the Panther server.
    I looked into the Open Directory settings but I do not understand what to do. How do I configure the Tiger and Panther servers respectively so the Panther server can sync with the Tiger server's users database. Is this possible? It seems like it with Open Directory, one being the Open Directory Master and the other being the Open Directory Replica? But I just don't understand how to set this up. Also the Panther OD settings seem quite different than Tiger's in Open Directory.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Hi
    It may be best to set up your 10.4 Server as an Open Directory Master first and then use Directory Access on your 10.3 Server to connect to the Tiger Server so as it can use the same User Database. This should be possible. OD Master/Replica relationships are not possible if the OS versions are different, even if the Master was 10.4.11 and the Replica was 10.4.10. You have no chance when its 10.4 and 10.3.
    http://images.apple.com/server/macosx/docs/OpenDirectory_Adminv10.5.pdf
    The link is for 10.5 but the basics are the same. This is a recent post that describes how to set up an OD Master:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1377046&tstart=0
    I'm guessing that your 10.4 Server is Standalone and is serving simple file services only (AFP and possibly SMB/Windows). If this is the case (and I can't see how it can't be) then your users will be in the local NetInfo node. This will be the default node that is presented to you in WorkGroup Manager. You always get a warning that your are working in an invisible node (if you have not disabled this) when working in the Server's local node. Don't worry there is nothing wrong with the warning. WorkGroup Manager on Panther (10.3) Server works the same way.
    You could if you wanted to simply export the Users and Groups from WGM in 10.4 and import them into WGM on 10.3. This should save you having to key them all in again. If the prospect of configuring internal DNS Services and all that goes with it seems to much for you then this is probably the simplest option. How do you do this? Launch WGM (its the same for both versions), select the Server Menu and select Export after first selecting desired users. Do the same for Groups. Use the same procedure in reverse. The Users and Groups files are not very big and can easily be transferred using a memory stick etc.
    There are differences between the two versions which are mostly to do with Server Admin. In 10.4 Server there are more services. One of the Services will be Open Directory. In 10.4 Open Directory will only show a green light by the side of the service if it is in any role other than Standalone. Server Admin on 10.3 Server will always show the green light by the side of the Open Directory Service. This does not mean that it is an OD Master, you have to click on Settings and inspect the Role to see what it actually is.
    You should be able to connect to a 10.3 Server with 10.4's Admin tools but don't be tempted to use Server Admin to configure/change anything on the 10.3 Server. You should not be able to go the other way 10.3 > 10.4 using the same tools.
    Internal DNS Services are a requirement for LDAP Services (and pretty much everything else) on Servers generally, although for simple file services not absolutely necessary. Internal DNS Services do not have to be configured on the Server itself just as long as they are configured on another server, for example, on the same network. If these are the only two servers on the network then you will have to configure DNS Services on either one or both of them depending on what you want.
    Not available on your 10.3 Server but is on your 10.4 Server are Access Control Lists (ACLs). This is a permissions model that is in addition to the standard POSIX permissions. Think carefully about how you provide permissions to your network clients if there is a mix of client OS, 10.3, 10.4 etc.
    Hope this helps, Tony
