MySQL 5.0.36

The RPMs for RedHat/CentOs are still on .27. But there have been several source releases as the above. I don't think it's recommended to do a source compile with DirectAdmin, but you can try it.
 
Scropic,

How was MySQL installed on your system? You should be able to install it using the same package/ports system that installed it originally. I'm not too FreeBSD conversant, so I can't be more specific.

Actually for those who have webmin installed on their server along side DA (I've been running this setup flawlessly since 2004) downloading the RPM's and simply telling webmin to install them works great. It's simple without any fuss or mess.
 
I am update now MySQL up to v.5.0.37 via PORTS on FreeBSD.:p
Need make little change in DA confing.
 
For FreeBSD:

# fetch http://dev.mysql.com/get/Downloads/....tar.gz/from/ftp://mirror.hostfuss.com/mysql/
# tar xvzf mysql-5.0.37.tar.gz
# cd mysql-5.0.37
# ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/mysql --with-extra-charsets=all --enable-thread-safe-client --enable-local-infile --enable-assembler --with-named-z-libs=not-used --disable-shared --enable-static
# make
# ./scripts/make_binary_distribution
# cp *.tar.gz /usr/local/
# cd ..
# rm -rf mysql-5.0.37*
# cd /usr/local/
# ls -l | grep mysql-5.0.37

Look at the filename of your MySQL archive, i.e. "mysql-5.0.37-freebsd6.0-i386.tar.gz" or "mysql-5.0.37-freebsd6.2-i386.tar.gz".

# tar xvzf filename.tar.gz
# chown -R root:mysql dir-name

(i.e. "mysql-5.0.37-freebsd6.2-i386")

# cd dir-name
# rm -rf data
# ln -s /home/mysql data
# cd ..
# rm mysql
# ln -s dir-name mysql
# /usr/local/etc/rc.d/mysqld stop
# /usr/local/etc/rc.d/mysqld start
# mysql -V

Now you should see something like this:

mysql Ver 14.12 Distrib 5.0.37, for unknown-freebsd6.2 (i386) using EditLine wrapper
