I would like to do a full upgrade of all the software associated with DirectAdmin. How do I do this? What steps need to be taken?
 
Manage the OS software (not the hosting stack) with your OS distribution's package manager, and manage the hosting stack with custombuild (search these forums for more information). Manage DirectAdmin updates from the control panel.

cd /usr/local/directadmin/custombuild
./build clean
./build update
./build all d
 
You dont use ./build all d its only needed if you want to reinstall the software. If you want to just upgrade then use ./build update_versions after a ./build update
 
nervous about upgrading...

One of my productions DA servers is a 32-bit CentOS 5.0 server running MySql version 5.0
"mysql Ver 14.12 Distrib 5.0.67, for pc-linux-gnu (i686) using readline 5.1"

I am nervous about upgrading to MySQL 5.5, any recommendations? Advice?
 
Ive heard that 5.5 work great but i didnt upgrade for dont get problem to customers.

For now i would suggest to migrate to 5.1

if the server is brand new and/or empty (or user wouldnt complain about mysql issue for deprecated function) so yes, you should update to 5.5 aswell.

Regards
