Migrating WordPress DB to MySQL 5

My web hosting provider (ICDSoft) can finally shut down my MySQL4 databases without feeling guilty. ;-)

Oh, in case someone out there is using ICDSoft and WordPress connected to MySQL4…ICDSoft provides a migration page to have your databases converted to MySQL5.  Then all you need to do is update your wp-config.php to use the new database AND make sure to use ‘localhost:/tmp/mysql5.sock’ as ‘DB_HOST’.

What’s cooking right now?  Not much…I started dabbling with digital video…and I just got a Canon HF-10 AVCHD camcorder.  Review coming soon.

Update: Wow. I did not realize that my site was down for about 3 weeks! My five readers must have been in panic…
