MySQL 5.6

Looking forward to this too.
MariaDB support too would be a great addition.
 
We're currently working hard on getting DA 1.43.0 released.
Custombuild 2.0 is also being worked on.

Most likely, sometime after things settle down a bit, right now we're quite busy.

I'll also add that you might be able to just update with the usual means, eg: update the rpms, and run the mysql_upgrade.

You can give MySQL 5.6 a try with CustomBuild 2.0 now.
 
Hello,

Looking at dev.mysql.com, it appears that they don't offer pre-compiled debian tar.gz files.. on .deb files, which our configuration isn't setup for.
This might be a multi-step fix to get CB to compile a tar.gz.

Assuming you're using custombuild 2.0, can you run the following:
Code:
cd /usr/local/directadmin/custombuild
./build update
./build compile_mysql_binary
which is was just added as an advanced command line option in CB 2.0, on files1.directadmin.com. (not for general use.. just for this case)

Once compiled, let us know what the tar.gz file is named, as the glibc extensions seem to be different with 5.6, eg:
Code:
ls -la mysql*.tar.gz
and then we can add that in to CB to compile automatically, just like FreeBSD does already.

Could you tell me how to upgrade to mysql 5.6.
In options.conf, i should edit version value from 5.5 to 5.6?
thanks

Pay attention to this:

That's it.
 
If you use Query Cache, be careful when you upgrade to MySQL 5.6. It is turned off by default in 5.6. After I first upgraded, I found that my WAIT TIME was way higher than usual and the load average went up at least 3x.
 
I am testing with CB 2.0 RC4

Do you experience InnoDb is much slower in MySQL 5.6 ?
(not sure it is only in 5.6, or happened in 5.5/5.1)

I tried to export and import a blank-new Horde 5 database (~6.3 MiB database, 110 InnoDB tables, 319 records in total),
it takes the following time to complete 3 trial import of InnoDB database (with different my.cnf setting) -

2m9.301s (with my own /etc/my.cnf)
2m7.681s (remarked query cache in /etc/my.cnf , and restarted mysql)
2m5.453s (remove /etc/my.cnf, i.e. everything default, and restarted mysql)

--

If I change the engine from InnoDb to MyISAM (i.e. modified the mysqldump file),
it takes 0m6.110s to complete those 110 MyISAM tables.
