Plesk and MySQL 5

··110 words·1 min·

One of the questions I receive the most is: “What version of Plesk works with MySQL 5?” The minimum version of Plesk for MySQL 5 is 8.1.0. If you install MySQL 5 on a version prior to 8.1.0, you may be able to access then panel in the other 8.x versions, but your upgrades will fail miserably.

In case you’re curious about a slightly older system, full MySQL 4 support was available in Plesk 7.5.3. However, MySQL 4 is supported on some distributions as far back as 7.1:

Fedora Core 2

Mandrake 10

SuSE 9.0

FreeBSD 5.2.1
