what does this mean in the db for oscommerce stores?

When I save my databases I see this at the top:
-- Server version: 4.1.20
-- PHP Version: 5.0.5

I know my ecommerce stores run MySQL 4.1.20 and 4.3.9 (Zend: 1.3.0) so why does it say php version is 5.0.5? Is this what version plesk uses?

What's the best way to upgrade centos4 to centos5 with mysql and php 5 series and keep plesk at 8.1.1 and will plesk 8.1.1 run on centos 5 as plesk doesn't officially support it but they only support centos 5 with plesk 8.2 which I don't want to update to now?

Thanks!

If you just want php5 and mysql5, you can get that from either my archive (mysql 5.0, php 5.2) or from centosplus (mysql 5.0, php 5.1).

Hi,

I wanted to know what this meant in Plesk when you export a database and my server says I am using the 4.3 version of PHP?

-- Server version: 4.1.20
-- PHP Version: 5.0.5 (I'm guessing this is the Plesk version of PHP they use for the admin ... is this correct?)

I cannot upgrade to any 5.x versions right now until I update all of my ms2.x osCommerce stores to ms2.2rc1 and later when available. This ms2.2rc1 is the only compatibility for PHP5 so am stuck with what I have for now.

When I do upgrade I will upgrade to CentOS 5 and then Plesk 8.2. Any easy way to do this for later on?

You're running mysql 4.1.20, php 4.3, and plesk uses php 5.0

Just in case you hadn't seen, PHP 4.x is going to EOL at the end of the year.

The PHP devs themselves may stop supporting PHP 4, but distributions that carry PHP 4 (like RHEL/CentOS 4) will probably just keep backporting security patches to PHP 4.x. I'm afraid PHP 4 will be around for a while.
