Applicable to:

  • Plesk for Linux

 

This article provides instructions for upgrading MySQL 5.5 to 5.6/5.7 and MariaDB 5.5 to 10.0/10.1/10.2 on Linux.

To find out your Linux distribution, run:

# plesk version | grep "OS version"

Or:

# cat /etc/*-release

 

Warnings:
Direct upgrade from MySQL 5.1 to MySQL 5.6/5.7 will break tables structure. The instructions for upgrading MySQL from 5.1 to 5.5 on Linux are available here: How to upgrade MySQL from 5.1 to 5.5 on Linux

It is strongly recommended to create a server snapshot (full backup) before upgrading. Perform MySQL upgrade at your own risk.

Before starting a MySQL upgrade, stop the WatchDog service if it is used on a server. Check its status with the service watchdog status command.

Notes:
MySQL will not be upgraded on CentOS/RHEL-based operating systems if it was installed from the Webtatic Yum repository:
# rpm -qa | grep -i mysql
mysql55w-server-5.5.57-1.w6.x86_64

MariaDB 10.3 is not currently supported. Support for this version will be added in the upcoming release Plesk Onyx 17.9. For details, visit this KB article.

 

To start an upgrade of MySQL/MariaDB, connect to a server via SSH as root/superuser and follow the instructions for your operating system:

 

Plesk on CentOS 7

 

By default, CentOS 7 is shipped with MariaDB 5.5. MariaDB 10.x version is a drop-in replacement for MySQL 5.5-5.7.

  1. For security reasons, create a database dump of all databases with the following command:

    # MYSQL_PWD=`cat /etc/psa/.psa.shadow` mysqldump -u admin --all-databases --routines --triggers > /tmp/all-databases.sql

  2. Stop MariaDB:

    # service mariadb stop

  3. Remove additional packages like mariadb-bench:

    # rpm -e --nodeps mariadb-bench

  4. For security reasons, copy the database directory in a separate folder:

    # cp -a /var/lib/mysql/ /var/lib/mysql_backup

  5. Check if the mysql-server package is already installed:

    # rpm -q --whatprovides mysql-server

    If it is installed and the command above gives output, remove using the following command:

    # rpm -e --nodeps `rpm -q --whatprovides mysql-server`

  6. Configure MariaDB repository: open the Setting MariaDB repositories page, select your OS distro, release and a desired MariaDB version. Once done, the configuration that should be added to the /etc/yum.repos.d/MariaDB.repo file will appear.

    Here is an example for MariaDB 10.2:

    6.1. Open/create the MariaDB.repo file in any text editor. In this example, we are using the vi editor:

    # vi /etc/yum.repos.d/MariaDB.repo

    6.2. Add the content below to the file:

    CONFIG_TEXT: [mariadb]
    name = MariaDB
    baseurl = http://yum.mariadb.org/10.2/centos7-amd64
    gpgkey=https://yum.mariadb.org/RPM-GPG-KEY-MariaDB
    gpgcheck=1

    6.3. Save the changes and close the file.

  7. Start an upgrade of MariaDB:

    # yum install MariaDB-client MariaDB-server

  8. Once the upgrade is finished, start MariaDB:

    # service mariadb start

    OR

    # service mysql start

  9. Upgrade MySQL databases:

    # MYSQL_PWD=`cat /etc/psa/.psa.shadow` mysql_upgrade -uadmin

  10. Restart mysql service:

    # service mariadb restart

    OR

    # service mysql restart

  11. Execute this command to update the package version inside Plesk:

    # plesk sbin packagemng -sdf

    Note: After an upgrade to 10.2 version, there may appear 'mysql' init script. It can be removed.

    # rm /etc/init.d/mysql
    # systemctl daemon-reload

 

Plesk on CentOS 6

  1. For security reasons, create a database dump of all databases with the following command:

    # MYSQL_PWD=`cat /etc/psa/.psa.shadow` mysqldump -u admin --all-databases --routines --triggers > /tmp/all-databases.sql

    If the command fails with "Cannot load from mysql.proc. The table is probably corrupted", apply the solution from this KB article.

  2. Stop MySQL server:

    # service mysqld stop

  3. For security reasons, create a backup of all existing databases:

    # cp -a /var/lib/mysql /var/lib/mysql_backup

  4. Disable Atomic repository, if it is enabled:

    # vi /etc/yum.repos.d/atomic.repo
    enabled = 0

  5. Check for MySQL repo files left from previous installation.

    # ls -l /etc/yum.repos.d/mysql*

    If any found, remove them:

    # rm -rf /etc/yum.repos.d/mysql-community-source.repo

  6. Install the MySQL-community repository:

    # yum install https://dev.mysql.com/get/mysql80-community-release-el6-1.noarch.rpm

  7. Configure MariaDB repository:

    7.1. Open the mysql-community.repo file in a text editor. In this example, we are using the vi editor:

    # vi /etc/yum.repos.d/mysql-community.repo

    7.2. Select a MySQL version. In this example, we are upgrading MySQL to 5.7:

    Warning: Disable MySQL 8.0 repository, as this release is not supported by Plesk yet. If it is not disabled, yum will install the latest version which will cause major issues.

    CONFIG_TEXT: [mysql56-community]
    enabled=0
    ...
    [mysql57-community]
    enabled=1
    ...
    [mysql80-community]
    enabled=0

    7.3. Save the changes and close the file.

  8. Install MySQL packages:

    # yum update mysql

    If update of mysql package ends with Nothing to do message, make sure that mysql* packages are not added to excludes in yum.conf file and remove it if it is in the list:

    # cat /etc/yum.conf | grep exclude
    exclude=php-common php-cli php mysql* httpd* mod_ssl*

  9. Type y if this message appears:

    CONFIG_TEXT: warning: rpmts_HdrFromFdno: Header V3 DSA/SHA1 Signature, key ID 5072e1f5: NOKEY
    Retrieving key from file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-mysql
    Importing GPG key 0x5072E1F5:
    Userid : MySQL Release Engineering <mysql-build@oss.oracle.com>
    Package: mysql57-community-release-el6-7.noarch (@/mysql57-community-release-el6-7.noarch)
    From : /etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-mysql
    Is this ok [y/N]:

  10. Start MySQL server:

    # service mysqld start

    If the service does not start, check the following article: MySQL fails to start: mysql.user table is damaged.

  11. Upgrade MySQL databases:

    # MYSQL_PWD=`cat /etc/psa/.psa.shadow` mysql_upgrade -uadmin

  12. Restart mysql service:

    # service mysqld restart

 

Plesk on CloudLinux

  1. Create a backup of all databases with the following command:

    # MYSQL_PWD=`cat /etc/psa/.psa.shadow` mysqldump -u admin --all-databases --routines --triggers > /tmp/all-databases.sql

  2. Stop the MySQL service:

    # service mysqld stop

  3. Copy a databases directory in a separate folder like this (for backup purposes also):

    # cp -a /var/lib/mysql/ /var/lib/mysql_backup

  4. Start the MySQL service:

    # service mysqld start

  5. Select MariaDB version to install:

    Note: The following command does not work if governor-mysql package is not installed. In such case, install it:
    # yum install governor-mysql

    # /usr/share/lve/dbgovernor/mysqlgovernor.py --mysql-version=mariadbXX

    Note: 'mariadbXX' should be substituted with one of the following:
    mariadb100 for MariaDB v10.0
    mariadb101 for MariaDB v10.1
    mariadb102 for MariaDB v10.2

  6. Install selected previously MariaDB engine:

    # /usr/share/lve/dbgovernor/mysqlgovernor.py --install

    Warning: CloudLinux does not recommend to downgrade from MySQL v5.6, MariaDB 10.x

  7. Execute this command to update the package version inside Plesk:

    # plesk bin service_node --update local

 

Plesk on Debian 8 & 9

Debian 8 & 9 are basically shipped with MariaDB. MariaDB 10.x version is a drop-in replacement for MySQL 5.5/5.6/5.7

Backup all existing databases using the KB article How to backup/restore a Plesk database dump and follow instructions on MariaDB site to update it:

 

Example

Install MariaDB:

# curl -sS https://downloads.mariadb.com/MariaDB/mariadb_repo_setup | sudo bash -s -- --mariadb-server-version=mariadb-10.2

# apt install mariadb-server-10.2

If the installation fails with unmet dependencies:

CONFIG_TEXT: dpkg: mariadb-server-10.1: dependency problems, but removing anyway as you requested:
plesk-mysql-server depends on virtual-mysql-server | mysql-server; however:
Package virtual-mysql-server is not installed.
Package mariadb-server-10.1 which provides virtual-mysql-server is to be removed.
Package mariadb-server-10.2 which provides virtual-mysql-server is not installed.
Package mysql-server is not installed.
<...>
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
mariadb-server-10.2 : Depends: mariadb-client-10.2 (>= 10.2.19+maria~stretch) but it is not going to be installed
Depends: mariadb-server-core-10.2 (>= 10.2.19+maria~stretch) but it is not going to be installed

Run the command below to correct them:

# apt --fix-broken install

If the command above fails with the following error:

CONFIG_TEXT: [...] 
Preparing to unpack .../mariadb-server-10.0_10.0.32-0+deb8u1_amd64.deb ...

Check this article: Plesk Update failed: There is a MySQL server running, but we failed in our attempts to stop it.

Check MySQL version:

# mysql -V
mysql Ver 15.1 Distrib 10.2.19-MariaDB, for debian-linux-gnu (x86_64) using readline 5.2

Execute this command to update package version inside Plesk:

# plesk bin service_node --update local

 

Plesk on Ubuntu 18.04

 

Ubuntu 18.04 is shipped with MariaDB 10.1. MariaDB 10.x version is a drop-in replacement for MySQL 5.5-5.7. In order to upgrade MariaDB 10.1 to MariaDB 10.2, follow this steps:

  1. Create a backup of all databases with the following command:

    # MYSQL_PWD=`cat /etc/psa/.psa.shadow` mysqldump -u admin --all-databases --routines --triggers > /tmp/all-databases.sql

  2. Stop the MariaDB service:

    # service mariadb stop

  3. Install repositories from downloads.mariadb.org, for example qq:

    Warning: Check the file "/etc/apt/sources.list" and the files inside directory "/etc/apt/sources.list.d/" and disable (comment with # at the beginning of the line) all MySQL repositories (e.g. MySQL 8 repository) to avoid installation of wrong MySQL versions by mistake.

    # apt-get install software-properties-common
    # apt-key adv --recv-keys --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80 0xF1656F24C74CD1D8
    # add-apt-repository 'deb [arch=amd64,arm64,ppc64el] http://mirror.truenetwork.ru/mariadb/repo/10.2/ubuntu bionic main'

  4. Create a backup of all MySQL data:

    # cp -a /var/lib/mysql/ /var/lib/mysql_backup

  5. Start an upgrade with the following command. Leave all fields empty when asked for a root user password:

    # apt-get install mariadb-server

  6. Start the MariaDB service:

    # service mariadb start

  7. Upgrade MySQL databases:

    # MYSQL_PWD=`cat /etc/psa/.psa.shadow` mysql_upgrade -uadmin

  8. Restart mysql service:

    # service mariadb restart

  9. Execute this command to update the package version inside Plesk:

    # plesk bin service_node --update local

 

Plesk on Ubuntu 14.04

 

Ubuntu 14.04 is shipped with MySQL 5.5 by default.

  1. Create a full server backup and a server's disk snapshot.

  2. Create a backup of /etc/mysql/my.cnf:

    # cp /etc/mysql/my.cnf{,_original}

  3. Add the MySQL APT Repository:

    Warning: Check the file "/etc/apt/sources.list" and the files inside directory "/etc/apt/sources.list.d/" and disable (comment with # at the beginning of the line) all MySQL repositories (e.g. MySQL 8 repository) to avoid installation of a wrong MySQL version by mistake.

    • Go to the download page for the MySQL APT repository at http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/repo/apt/.

    • Select and download a release package for your platform:

      # wget https://dev.mysql.com/get/mysql-apt-config_0.8.11-1_all.deb

    • Install the downloaded release package:

      # dpkg -i mysql-apt-config_0.8.11-1_all.deb

      Warning: During an installation of the MySQL package, you will be asked to choose the versions of the MySQL server and other components that you want to install. If you are not sure which version to choose, do not change the options selected by default. You can also choose none if you do not want a particular component to be installed. After making choices for all components, choose Apply to finish the configuration and installation of the release package.

    • Update package information from the MySQL APT repository:

      # apt-get update

  4. Upgrade MySQL:

    # apt-get install mysql-server

    To avoid issues Agree when prompted to update /etc/mysql/my.cnf.

  5. Make sure that mysql-community-libs-compat package is installed. Install if it is missing.

  6. Upgrade MySQL databases:

    # MYSQL_PWD=`cat /etc/psa/.psa.shadow` mysql_upgrade -uadmin

  7. Restart MySQL server

    # service mysql restart

  8. In Plesk go to Tools & Settings > Server Components and click Refresh.

    Can you please make  sure that the step "mysql_upgrade" is added after upgrading / starting MySQL on the CentOS 7 instructions? 

    This checks and fixes any system tables

    Thank You

    Hello @Cogeco Peer 1 Frontline,

    I have reviewed the article, "mysql_upgrade" is already added to be executed after upgrading Database server and starting it.

    Hello @Ivan, glad to hear that the instruction has helped. However, MariaDB 10.2 and 10.3 are not yet officially supported by Plesk.

    We followed the instructions provided on here and upgraded MariaDB 10.1 to MariaDB 10.2 on Ubuntu 18.04.1 running Plesk 17.8.11 #19 where MariaDB 10.2 is now officially supported. It worked first time, perfectly, with no issues.

    Hello Ivan!

    I have Plesk Onyx Version 17.8.11 Update #19 on a CentOS Linux 7.5.1804 (Core) with a MySQL (Maria DB I belief) ver.5.5.60. on a dedicated server.

    I have a script that requires MySQL ver. 5.6, and error flags with [No MySQL available] when I tried to install it just to see.

    The script developer tells me to move to a server with Cpanel, and that is out of the question, as I have used Plesk since version 7 or 8 I believe. I cannot get a refund either, as this is not a script failure, and I'm not going to write off $800 either, and there's no other script with what I need anyway.

    I have currently 2 servers with Plesk licenses, and I can experiment with one not so important.
    However, my time is on a tremendous squeeze, so I would like to start out with something that works without trying to experiment with version after version.

    Should I try to install the latest MariaDB 10.3, or is it possible to install a MySQL 5.6 as required, and a better option. I would appreciate your opinion. Thank you kindly!

    I am running the latest version of Plesk Onyx for Linux 17.8.11 with CentOS 7.5.1804 and I want to Upgrade the MySQL Server from 5.5 to 5.7.

    For software specific reasons, I do not want to Upgrade to MariaDB 10.X. Does anyone know if the instructions above for CentOS 6 will work for CentOS 7.5?

    Hi @Bruno Schrotter!

    As MariaDB is a replacement for MySQL, upgrade it to MariaDB 10.1 (that is equal to MySQL 5.6). Just follow the instructions for CentOS 7, it should work as expected.

    Hi @Kevin Hudson!

    Instructions for CentOS 6 will not work as CentOS 6 has MySQL by default.

    What you need to do in order to achieve your goal is to replace MariaDB with MySQL 5.5 and then upgrade MySQL 5.5 to MySQL 5.7. Replacement might have some issues with compatibility.

    I was not able to find the repo for MySQL 5.5 for CentOS 7, however if you find one, something like this should do the trick for you:

    1. Stop MariaDB:

    # service mariadb stop

    2. Remove it:

    # rpm -e --nodeps mariadb-server

    3. Add your custom repo with mysql 5.5.

    4. Install packages from this repo:

    # yum install mysql-server mysql-community-server

    5. Then, start the service, run mysql_upgrade:

    # service mysqld start
    # mysql_upgrade -uadmin -p`cat /etc/psa/.psa.shadow`

    6. Refresh server components:

    # plesk sbin packagemng -sdf

    Note that you might want to install packages manually on step 4 in case you will not be able to find the repo on step 3. 

     

    Please, keep in mind that this instructions were not tested and I suggest to create a snapshot of the server as well as the backup of MySQL databases before doing so.

    Hello there.

    Nice article, I upgraded my MySQL server from  5.5 to 5.7 on Ubuntu 14.04 successfully.

    When restarting my server I ran through the following warning: MySQL 5.7 No directory, logging in with HOME=/ 

    My solution (for the time being) is/was to change home directory of mysql

    # service mysql stop
    # usermod -d /var/lib/mysql/ mysql
    # service mysql start

    This fixed my issues on the latest Plesk 17.8 --- was migrating from Ubuntu 18. Used CloudLinux, it caused a lot of issues. So don't do CloudLinux first -- YOU WILL run into issues... MIGRATE YOUR ACCOUNTS FIRST, then add your extensions like CloudLinux and Litespeed.

    hi, I tried to update the MySQL version by following the guide but the operation stopped at point 8. 

    MYSQL_PWD=`cat /etc/psa/.psa.shadow` mysql_upgrade -uadmin

    and I receive the error:

    # MYSQL_PWD=`cat /etc/psa/.psa.shadow` mysql_upgrade -uadmin
    Version check failed. Got the following error when calling the 'mysql' command line client
    ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'admin'@'localhost' (using password: YES)
    FATAL ERROR: Upgrade failed

     

    thanks

    Hi @Domenico,

    The command should be working well in case there is no other issue involved here. Try checking this in the following manner:

    1. Check whether or not you can access MySQL with any of the following commands:

    # MYSQL_PWD=`cat /etc/psa/.psa.shadow` mysql -uadmin psa

    OR 

    # plesk db

    OR 

    # mysql psa -uadmin -p`cat /etc/psa/.psa.shadow`

    2. I also would recommend checking whether or not you have /root/.my.cnf file and removing it if any.

    but when I launch point 10 it comes out like this:

    # plesk sbin packagemng -sdf
    -bash: plesk: command not found

    Naturally I can not access plesk

    in /root/.my.cnf I do not have this file

    Check if any Plesk-related packages were removed during the upgrade of MariaDB (in /var/log/yum.log they should be marked as "erased").
    If there were, run the autoinstaller and reinstall them:

    # wget https://autoinstall.plesk.com/plesk-installer
    # chmod +x plesk-installer
    # ./plesk-installer

    Hello @Domenico,

    From the provided logs I see that Plesk is not able to establish a connection with MariaDB.

    Initial troubleshooting steps are the same as provided by @Alexander:

    1. Check whether or not you can access MySQL with any of the following commands:

    # MYSQL_PWD=`cat /etc/psa/.psa.shadow` mysql -uadmin psa

    OR 

    # plesk db

    OR 

    # mysql psa -uadmin -p`cat /etc/psa/.psa.shadow`

    2. I also would recommend checking whether or not you have /root/.my.cnf file and removing it if any.

     

    As the issue is rather complicated and there is Plesk downtime, I would suggest submitting a request for Plesk Support.

    hello Ivan, thanks for the reply

    if you activate the commands indicated by you, this happens:

    # MYSQL_PWD=`cat /etc/psa/.psa.shadow` mysql -uadmin psa
    ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'admin'@'localhost' (using password: YES)
    # plesk db
    -bash: plesk: command not found
    # mysql psa -uadmin -p`cat /etc/psa/.psa.shadow`
    ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'admin'@'localhost' (using password: YES)

    in root/ I do not have the file /.my.cnf
    I see a file named .mysql_history

    I tried to make a request to the support, but it tells me that my license was sold by a retailer and I can not go on, my dealer does not help me because I did not buy this

    @Domenico,

    Hello,

    In such case, it is still possible to get support from Plesk directly. Please check the article How to get support directly from Plesk?

    Plesk support subscription will allow you to submit a request if you decide to continue with MySQL upgrade.

    Hi,

    two little things. First, the repo/mirror "mirror.host.ag" in capital city of Bulgaria, Sofia, provided in the tutorial is not accessable since last week. I had to choose another one, because I got the following error [HUB] Plesk Update Manager (PUM) fails: pum is called with arguments.

    Second is a question. Is it possible to upgrade from 10.2 to 10.3 or do you recommend to wait a while? Because on the mirrors site shows MariaDB 10.3 release for Ubuntu 18.04 LTS as "stable".

    Lots of greets

    Hey there Markus,

    1. Looks like not only in Bulgaria the repo http://mirror.host.ag/ is unavailable. We've already replaced it with a different one - http://mirror.truenetwork.ru.
    Thanks for bringing this to our attention.

    2. MariaDB 10.3 is not yet supported by Plesk. Support for this version will be added in the upcoming major release. It is now reflected in the article as well.

    You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
    You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

    Hello @Alejandro Stendelis,

    Try to clean up the list of the mirrors.

    1. Install yum utils:
    # yum install yum-utils

    2. Run the following command:
    # yum clean all

    If the issue still persists, please submit the ticket and we investigate the issue:
    How to submit a request to Plesk support?
