I've been using Apache, MySQL and PHP under Win2k for a while to learn PHP. At the moment, I'm running PHP 4.2.2, MySQL 3.23.39 and Apache 2.0.40.
During the holidays, I've read about a security hole in MySQL and therefore plans to upgrade to 3.23.54a. At the same time, I want to install PHP 4.3.0 and Apache 2.0.43.
But when I started to look for upgrading instructions for each software package, I find nothing.
Therefore, I would like to know how to perform an upgrade of each package?
Should the MySQL and Apache deamons be stopped first?
Should I install into my current directories?
Will my config files be overwritten?
Does it matter which of the three I upgrade first?
What more should I keep in mind?
If questions like these are considered off topic, please let me know.
Best regards,
Anders
