Thank you for your reply: I thought I had tried using the mysql55 and mysql-server55. Anyway, when I did, it found something, but eventually resulted in this (a sample of the error message):
Transaction Check Error: file /etc/my.cnf from install of mysql55-libs-5.5.25-1.ius.el5.i386 conflicts with file from package mysql-libs-5.5.20-1.el5.remi.i386 file /usr/lib/mysql/libmysqlclient.so.18.0.0 from install of mysql55-libs-5.5.25-1.ius.el5.i386 conflicts with file from package mysql-libs-5.5.20-1.el5.remi.i386 file /usr/share/mysql/czech/errmsg.sys from install of mysql55-libs-5.5.25-1.ius.el5.i386 conflicts with file from package mysql-libs-5.5.20-1.el5.remi.i386 file /usr/share/mysql/danish/errmsg.sys from install of mysql55-libs-5.5.25-1.ius.el5.i386 conflicts with file from package mysql-libs-5.5.20-1.el5.remi.i386 Would the yum-plugin-replace deal with this? Oh, and yes, I made sure that I copied databases and schema before attempting this.

You're looking for mysql55 and mysql55-server packages. There is a package in IUS, yum-plugin-replace, that may assist you in upgrading a package that was named differently like this though I personally haven't tried it. Maybe one of the maintainers of IUS can give you more specific instructions. In any case, since you're likely dealing with an important database, make sure you back up before attempting. -Josh From: ius-community-bounces+jdr=alexanderinteractive....@lists.launchpad.net<mailto:ius-community-bounces+jdr=alexanderinteractive....@lists.launchpad.net> [mailto:ius-community-bounces+jdr=alexanderinteractive....@lists.launchpad.net] On Behalf Of Chris Adams Sent: Thursday, July 19, 2012 2:50 PM To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: [Ius-community] attempting to upgrade mysql-server using ius repo Hello, I just joined this group and have a question. I am trying to update mysql-server 5.5.20 to 5.5.25. I added the ius repos and then issue a command to see what mysql components are available: yum --enablerepo=ius list mysql mysql-server The results are this: mysql.i386 5.5.20-1.el5.remi installed mysql-server.i386 5.5.20-1.el5.remi installed I have gone to the ius website and checked the repos and find 5.5.24 here: http://dl.iuscommunity.org/pub/ius/stable/Redhat/5/x86_64/repoview/applications.databases.group.html What am I missing that will enable me to do a regular yum update using the ius repository so that I can upgrade mysql-server. Many thanks. mysql55-server-5.5.24-1.ius.el5.x86_64<http://dl.iuscommunity.org/pub/ius/stable/Redhat/5/x86_64/mysql55-server-5.5.24-1.ius.el5.x86_64.rpm> Christopher Adams Library Systems Coordinator Oregon State Library [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> 503-378-5031 503-932-1004 (IT support)
