Upgrading mysql from 4.1.22 to 5.0 - mysql

I'm trying to upgrade our company's 4.1.22 version of MySQL to 5.
I'm using
sudo yum --enablerepo=centosplus upgrade mysql*
but keep getting an error of conflicted files with the 4.1 version.
Does that mean there really isn't any other way than uninstalling 4.1 and installing 5.0? I have read that using the yum upgrade command should work however...
Thanks in advance!

You need to uninstall MySQL 4.1.22 and fresh install MySQL 5. We recently migrated from MySQL 5.0 to 5.5 which required similar steps.

How to uninstall MySQL 5.7 installed through MacPorts?

Using this MacPorts guide, I installed MySQL 5.7 on my Mac.
I want to uninstall it now but I can't find any documentation specific to removing just the MySQL server I installed through MacPorts.
I found this guide and others similar to it on how to completely remove MySQL on a Mac, and followed every single step listed.
However, when I issue the command, sudo port load mysql57-server, I can still load the MySQL server.
So how can I completely remove MySQL 5.7 installed through MacPorts?
Turns out, it's really simple - sudo port uninstall mysql57-server.
That removed MySQL 5.7 installed through MacPorts.

How do I update MySQL installed with Homebrew on a Mac

I've installed MySQL on a Mac via brew.
I do constant brew updates but MySQL keeps telling me it has a new version.
Does brew update not update MySQL?
If so then how should I do it? Manually?
No, brew update only updates Homebrew itself including retrieving the latest list of formulas/packages available.
Once you have ran brew update you can then upgrade all formulas/packages using:
brew upgrade
To upgrade a particular package you can use the brew upgrade command like:
brew upgrade mysql
Before running an upgrade you may want to know what can be or is going to be upgraded using the command:
brew outdated
NOTE always remember to read the post install/upgrade notes that are output. Some packages require manual steps post install/upgrade like major database version upgrades often require data upgrade/migration procedures to be run.

Try MySQL Sandbox. You can use it to install from MySQL binary distributions, and install multiple versions side by side.
