MySQL 4 is reaching end of life. It should be standard maintenance to upgrade all servers to MySQL 5

thank you

The change of MySQL4 to the fifth version may affect functionality of the databases, the software that is already installed and work with MySQL 4 on the servers and may be incompatible with MySQL 5; it may also affect some of the scripts. There may be some binary data and encryption format incompatibilities between MySQL 4 and MySQL 5. We can avoid most of such cases if we dump all databases of the server and restore dumps in compatible mode, but there is no 100% guarantee that some databases will not be damaged. In case of upgrade to a newer version, there will be 6- 8 MySQL databases downtime during the upgrade.

We cannot upgrade a component that is not just a software piece, but a data storage device.
If you would like to have MySQL 5 you need to upgrade your account and it will be transferred to the server that supports MySQL 5
