I am considering moving away from MySQL to MariaDB but first I want to know if some people already did this using Directadmin Custombuld 1.x :D
 
Btw, random question is very annoying! Registering and posting took me atleast 10 times to guess and Google :S
 
Topic title might be misleading. I am just wondering if people tried to replace MySQL with MariaDB or Percona. And did it go smoothly without any problems.

BTW REMOVE THE RANDOM QUESTION! ITS DRIVING ME CRAZY JUST CAPTCHA IMAGE WOULD BE ENOUGH GOD DAMN :mad:

No need to shout; we hear you.

Unfortunately it's not enough; As you can see from our stats we're a popular forum, and even now we get spam almost daily. You don't see most of them because our blocking system catches them, but I do, and I delete them from the message base and block the users.

I've upgraded your status to Verified and you won't need to go through these hoops again.

Enjoy the DirectAdmin Forums! :D

Slackware (the first distribution on which I ran webhosting) and Arch Linux are both aimed toward sophisticated linux administrators with specific aims and skillsets. Neither are aimed at shared webhosting users, and neither are supported by DirectAdmin. DirectAdmin is aimed at system administrators who want to be able top offer shared webhosting without having to make every choice and decision and installation.

Big difference.

I've been hosting websites for others since 1995 (no one did before that; the Internet was entirely US Govt operated before that) and there were lots of discussions in the earliest days of whether or not we should automate at all; the concensus ended up to let others make the decisions and automate the work, so we could concentrate on maintaing platforms that could just work.

But to me the biggest issue is the selling point. I can either let my prospects know we use MySQL (which they've all heard of, and which virtually all site platforms list as a requirement, or tell people we're compatible (with all the ambiguity that brings), or lie, and say we use MySQL even if we don't. Of those choices, I chose the former.

I understand your point of view, but you also could understand what others needs ;) I can't believe that cPanel community is much more educated :D
