Database server requirements mismatch on documentation #453

Closed RomBrz closed 4 months ago

RomBrz commented 5 months ago

Hi, i'm reading the documentation for OCS and i found some informations mismatched about database requirements:

One page says that should be MySQL 4.1.0 or higher, BUT not work with 5.5 and upper.

"MySQL or MariaDB version 4.1.0 or higher with InnoDB engine active. Mysql version upper than 5.5 are not supported but may work." https://wiki.ocsinventory-ng.org/01.Prerequisites/Libraries-version/

Another page says that should be MySQL 5.4 or higher.

Database server currently can only be MySQL 5.4 or higher. https://wiki.ocsinventory-ng.org/03.Basic-documentation/Deploying-database-server/

I have an old 2.9 standalone server (app + database), and i want to make a new installation of OCS server 2.11 (no migration) using container + remote database, and have right now a MySQL 5.7 already installed and available to use. By link 1 i cannot use it, by link 2 i could.

Thanks!

Hi,

The documentation will have a rework soon as some info are a bit outdated.

We recommend Mysql 8.0+ and Mariabd 10.3+ in order to be compatible and have the latest security fixes.
