I've attempted to upgrade to MySQL 3.23 to 4.0. MySQL 4.0 server is
working great, buy I couldn't get MySQL 4.0 client to install
properly. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Here are the steps
I followed:
1. Downloaded the server, client, and "Dynamic client libraries
(including 3.23.x libraries)" rpms.
2. rpm -Uvh --nodeps MySQL-server-4.0.20-0.i386.rpm
This worked great, and MySQL 4.0 server is running fine.
3. rpm -Uvh MySQL-shared-compat-4.0.20-0.i386.rpm
After this, I received the following errors:
Installing all prepared tables
040801 22:24:53 Warning: Asked for 196608 thread stack, but got

040801 22:24:53 /usr/sbin/mysqld: Shutdown Complete
1 out of 1 hunk FAILED -- saving rejects to file
/usr/bin/safe_mysqld.rej
I didn't know what to do after this, so I went ahead and tried to
install the client.
4. rpm -Uvh MySQL-client-4.0.20-0.i386.rpm

This is my first Linux install, so I will need detailed instructions
on how to fix this. Any help would really be appreciated. Thanks.
