In order to determine which MySQL version you're running you can type the following command: mysql -V

Sample results:

# mysql -V
mysql Ver 14.7 Distrib 4.1.11, for pc-linux-gnu (i386)

# mysql -V
mysql Ver 14.12 Distrib 5.0.32, for pc-linux-gnu (i486) using readline 5.2

Now, if you want to query for the version number while beign logged in (PHP script for example), just go with: SELECT VERSION(); .

I believe this is only working since MySQL 4 though.

Matt from WordPress was holding a casual WordPress meetup in Paris today. I thought I should drop by and say hello... Meet the legend, you know! ;)

(Do you realize WordPress and b2evolution actually both spun off the b2 blog software at the same time?)

It was nice chatting with Matt as well as Tony (Sphere), Xavier (NetVibes), StuFF mc (Pomcast) and the others.

(maybe I should go out more often? ... or sleep more, judging by the picture! :roll:)
