    my cpanel-based vps is running mysql v5.0.91-community.

    my web host guys say the upgrade to v5.1.x is 1-way, can’t go back.

    i see no reason not to upgrade.

    what are your thoughts here regarding mysql and revo?

    i have the latest versions of php and apache.

      Correct, the upgrade is one way so if you find a script(s) are incompatible there is no going back. In regards to upgrading, what reason do you have to upgrade? If it ain’t broke don’t fix it. (best in country/ red neck accent)

      I’ve yet to upgrade any of my servers, but don’t foresee many if any problems.

            Awesome, thanks for reporting back that everything works! Did you notice any increase/decrease in memory usage? Also did you have any issues with prior MODx installs?
