Could someone please tell me what the latest version of MySQL is? I want to update my one because it's keeps on getting bugs! Thanks.

Latest stable release: 4.1.xLatest Test and Deve Release: 5.0.x~Viz

Thanks vizskywalker. Do you know though whether the 5.0.x is safe and reliable though?

[vizskywalker 0]

MySQL advises against using 5.0.x unless you plan to help in the developement process, adn they recommend that standard users stick to 4.1.x, which is what I do. Upgrading to 5.0.x when it goes stable should be very easy.~Viz

Thanks for the advice vizskywalker. I thing I'll stick with 4.x because I'm sure there can't be much difference in 5.x, can there?

Not really, it's a couple more functions and a couple of functions made more efficient. It's definitley worth it to wait for a stable version.~Viz

mysql version used by Xisto is a stable one, but is not the most recent stable version, why is that so?used version = 4.0most stable recent version = 4.1I don't remember if 4.0 supports foreign keys, can anyone remind me of that please?

Three reasons why Xisto isn't running the most recent stable build:1) we just haven't updated yet2) Some scripts written for 4.0 may not work in 4.1, which would cause people to need to rewrite their scripts3) 5.0 is about to release (soon), so why upgrade now?And I beleive 4.0 does indeed support foreign keys.~Viz
