Hi,
I am trying to install this in the background, using scr ipts. Is there a way to install it non-interactively? This includes answering upgrade questions like should I keep my previous my.cnf and /etc/init.d/mysql

Thanks,
Udi

@Doonie

I’m using Ubuntu 9 and the DEBs worked without any issues. Since MySQL 5.1.39 + XtraDB was already installed, after adding the repo, it didn’t need to update any packages so I cannot confirm that the repository works but I’m pretty sure it would if it’s basically the same as the .DEBs.

Nice work with the repo, all I’m missing now is one for Ubuntu and you got me hooked
Keep up the amazing work and optimizations that makes a difference to our work.

Oh thank you very much for the apt repo!

I do have one issue I have run into with 5.1.39 + XtraDB, and I am not sure if it’s just an issue with 5.1.39 ( need to test it against the vanilla release) but, I have noticed that neither PBXT nor SphinxSE seem to work as pluggable modules in 5.1.39 + XtraDB? If I build from 5.1.39 the plugins and try to install them, MySQL crashes in horrible ways.

I mention this prior to logging a real bug because I wanted to test more extensively first to make sure it’s not PEBCAK but thought I’d check to see about this? On an aside, are there any plans to add these in? PBXT is still an RC, but having the SphinxSE engine as a plugin already in the distribution would be pretty awesome.

Hi Dimitri,

The last change made in a branch release-8 is dated by 30/09, so if you took sources from Launchpad, they should be up to date. I updated the source and RPMs for rhel4,5 on the website as well.

Hi Aleksandr,

source files are dated by 23/sep – were there any changes applied since this date or it’s ok? (I mean – if I compiled my binaries last week from XtraDB-8 source tree – are they still valid or I have to reload and recompile them again?)..

Thank you!

Rgds,
