Hi,

I wonder if someone can help with this question that stumps me every upgrade.

The manual page for upgrading lists the MySQL requirement as MySQL version 'or equivalent MariaDB' (e.g. MySQL 5.5.8+ (or equivalent MariaDB) for 1.36.2).

From our wiki's version page, I can see that our hosting provider has 10.2.36-MariaDB installed, and I assume this is sufficient for meeting the requirement for upgrading to 1.36.2.

However, is there anywhere where I can check which MariaDB version is equivalent to which MySQL version (apologies if this a daft question coming from a non-tech person)?

You can have look at https://mariadb.com/kb/en/mariadb-vs-mysql-features/ to see the roughly equivalent mariadb versions to mysql versions. The version you have available is probably OK even though it is a rather old version.

Many thanks,

Sven
