beeswax Posted February 27, 2007 Posted February 27, 2007 I've just got to the point of installing Moodle v.1.7 on our web server, when under the environment tab it says that I need v.4.1.16 of MySQL rathere than the earlier used in Apache2Triad. The other warning/advice I get is that the default character be set to Unicode - I don't look for this in MySQL do I? It's in the Moodle settings?
Geoff Posted February 27, 2007 Posted February 27, 2007 converting your database to unicode is optional when doing a Moodle upgrade to 1.7
beeswax Posted February 27, 2007 Author Posted February 27, 2007 this is a fresh install of 1.7. I think the two are connected, but I can't figure out how
Geoff Posted February 27, 2007 Posted February 27, 2007 It depends if your version of mysql has unicode support compiled in. In fact I'm unsure if it's even supported under Windows.
Guest Posted February 27, 2007 Posted February 27, 2007 I think this will help with regards to upgrading MySQL. Worked for me. http://apache2triad.net/forums/viewtopic.php?t=4805&highlight=upgrade+mysql
beeswax Posted February 27, 2007 Author Posted February 27, 2007 just seen this post myself. what's troubling me is that I'm not too sure how to stop all the services running so that I can copy all the files over. I thought I'd stopped them all but when I come to copy files over I get an error message saying such and such file is in use and can't be moved.
Guest Posted February 27, 2007 Posted February 27, 2007 Log onto the apache2triad web admin and stop apache and mysql from there.
beeswax Posted February 27, 2007 Author Posted February 27, 2007 got my head round it now. thanks to all for your help
