MySQL, Apache, and PHP Update?

Hello,

I'm new to Plesk, and am having some trouble updating my server. Recently, on vBulletin I was informed that I should upgrade mysql to 4.0.23, upgrade php to 4.3.10, and upgrade apache to 2.0.53. However, I don't know where to find these RPMs for Plesk 7.5.2 (with Red Hat Enterprise 3).

If anyone could point me in the right direction, I would greatly appreciate it.

Thank you for all your time and energy!

Sincerely,
Andrew Tatum

This is how I have it set up :)

1) Edit /etc/sysconfig/rhn/sources by typing

Code: Select all

vi /etc/sysconfig/rhn/sources
then hitting i and copying and pasting the following:
2) Add:

Code: Select all

# Atomic RPMS
yum atomic http://3es.atomicrocketturtle.com/atomic/art/3ES/
and

Code: Select all

# SW-Soft PSA 7.5.x RPMS
yum atomic-psa75 http://3es.atomicrocketturtle.com/atomic/psa75/3ES/
to the bottom
3) hit ESC and SHIFT + : then type wq and press enter (this saves and exits vi)
4) after that type up2date yum. This installs yum so that you can keep up2date redhat official packages seperate from the art packages.
5) After rum is finished installing edit /etc/yum.conf by doing the same as above for VI (vi /etc/yum.conf)
6) add

Code: Select all

[atomic]
name=Atomic Rocket Turtle - $releasever - Atomic PSA-Compatible RPMS
baseurl=http://3es.atomicrocketturtle.com/atomic/art/$releasever/
baseurl=http://archive.atomicrocketturtle.com/atomic/art/$releasever/
baseurl=http://www.atomicrocketturtle.com/atomic/art/$releasever/
and

Code: Select all

[psa-7.5]
name=Atomic Rocket Turtle - $releasever - SW-Soft PSA 7.5 RPMS
baseurl=http://3es.atomicrocketturtle.com/atomic/psa-7.5/$releasever/
baseurl=http://archive.atomicrocketturtle.com/atomic/psa-7.5/$releasever/
baseurl=http://www.atomicrocketturtle.com/atomic/psa-7.5/$releasever/
7) Exit and save the same way as above

8) type yum upgrade php
9) yum upgrade mysql

and there you go you should be done. If I have confused you let me know. You can use any editor to edit the files you which vi is just what I use.

Well apache is tricky on Plesk. I have not figured out how to upgrade apache on plesk without breaking anything. Can't seem to find someone to do that.

There are no art files to upgrade plesk so you have to compile it from source.

up2date httpd will get you the latest redhat apache version which will include security fixes... not sure about bug fixes...

If I figure it out I will let you know.

I think I was the one on vbulletin to tell you to upgrade all these things and didnt realize you were on Plesk. In that case php and mysql should be good enough for now as that is what i have upgraded.

I also have eaccelrator installed

Alright, I got all of that done. But now eaccelerator isn't working... any thoughts?

No Problem :)

Have you gotten one of eva2000's my.cnf configurations from vbulletin.com yet?

Yep... just gotta it and will implement it tonight.

Thanks again for your help...

PS: Tried to update Apache, but the latest version on yum or whatever was the one I currently have :cry:

I forgot to tell you to remove your entries that you added into your up2date configuration file so you dont get the art files when you run up2date and you just get them when you run yum :)

-bash not found

Why do I get this message when typing "up2date yum"

-bash: up2date: command not found

If you're on a VPS, they remove all the updaters (yum, up2date, etc). Talk to your hoster (or demand) ask them to take care of it. If they aren't letting you update your box, then they need to take responsibility for it.

Thanks for the reply and sorry for my late one...

I tried serveral time upgrading and it seem to work at the end, but I couldn't get the:

old_passwords=1
skip-bdb

to solve the problem. Is here any specific procedure regarding vp servers?

My BIG problem is that I've emailed them serveral time, but there is no response for my requests :(

Maybe I'am asking stupid, but is there any general rules for hosters wich they should follow?
