I have a general question with DA version update. If I have the currently DA 1.263 and in the future new DA version release will it cause any problem if I upgrade my Apache to 2 and php to 4.4 and MySQL to current release.

Will I still be able to use the DA automatic update without any manual modify to any scripts?

I like to do a yum update of all the current installed CentOS4 and then update the Apache, PHP and MySQl.

Thanks

Rocky
 
apache 2 will cause some problems (you will need to read tutorials on here to manually update it since apache 1.x is only officially supported)

you can upgrade php to latest 4.x release (upgrading 5 may cause issues, again read tutorials on the forums) and upgrading mysql should be as easy as downloading the new 4.0 rpms (upgrading to 4.1 can cause problems as well, since it is ment for php5).
 
No. DA is a standalone daemon, writted in C/C++ (apparently), and so is not dependant on apache, php or mysql versions.

If you upgrade to apache2, php 4.4, and Mysql 5 (my mysyl reinstall gave me mysql5 when I used the DA script. Its working very well, so I'm not going to think about downgrading) then DA will work without a problem. DA is coded to handle these service's configurations or DA wouldn't supply conversion scripts for them.
