I am tring to install mysql 5.0 on redhat linux3.

In this server mysql 3 is already installed and hence while I install mysql 5 it gives the following error.

How I can install mysql 5 with out affect previous installation?

bash-2.05b# rpm -i MySQL-server-community-5.0.41-0.rhel3.i386.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:

Do not install by RPM. Use binary tarball releases from mysql.com. Just extract in a directory of your choosing and set up a my.cnf file in the directory to override the bind port (change to something other than 3306) and other needed configuration.

For details, please read the mysql reference manual.

I'm just curious of why you want 3.23 still hanging around anyway - regardless of whether or not you have your own separate version. That version's got to be 4 or 5 years old by now - isn't it time to upgrade?
