Upgrading MySQL isn't too bad if it's your own server. Your 6.5 threads will run under MySQL 4 with no problems whatsoever, just not MySQL 5.
Yes, I have a full dedicated server with GoDaddy.
I can pay them to do it. But it shouldn't be that hard to upgrade I guess. I just wanted to make sure that the upgrade wouldn't interfere with the other boards. Well, other than the time I have to close them to do the upgrade.
I'm sure there is an upgrade tutorial on the mysql site?
Just to confirm; you "guarantee" no problems with mysql 4.0 and threads 6.5.2 right?
