I'm running vBulletin 3.6.4 on Windows web servers running PHP 4.3.10. I'm going to upgrade to a 64-bit Linux DB box running MySQL 5.0.41. Are there any compatibility issues with this? I know PHP 4.3.10 is an old version, I'm going to upgrade it soon after I upgrade the DB box, but I want to make sure that for the time being after I move, 4.3.10 will be compatible and run correctly.

Thanks,
Sean

There shouldn't be any compatibility issues that I can think of off the top of my head. What version of MySQL are you using now?

Hi Wayne,

We're currently on MySQL 4.1.15-standard. Our hosting provider wondered whether the MySQL libraries being in a different location for MySQL 5.0.14 would cause issues, so we might have to recompile. I didn't think so, but of course I wanted to check before I attempted the move.

You might have to recompile PHP but I have seen people running MYSQL 5 on 4.0.X client libraries successfully.
