  Without knowing the error it's hard to advise but, that said, sure - you can update MySQL. I'd dump all databases to .sql just in case and then update the MySQL RPMs.

  Hi Michael, This is a DNSonly server. The exact error is as follow, but really cPanel should know this I expect quite a few DNSonly servers are out there. E Blocker found: The mysql-version value in /var/cpanel/cpanel.config is invalid. Valid values are 5.1 or 5.5. You can change the value here: MySQL Upgrade [20131211.230005] E Blocker found: Newer releases of cPanel & WHM are not compatible with your MySQL version: 5.0. Upgrade your MySQL server to a version greater or equal to 5.1 [20131211.230005] W An attempt to up/downgrade to 11.40.0.26 was blocked. Please review blockers. Thanks anyway.

  Hello :) You can try the following steps: 1. Modify the /var/cpanel/cpanel.config file so that the following line exists: mysql-version=5.1
  Note that you should modify the "mysql-version" entry to 5.1 if an entry for 5.0 already exists. 2. Run the following command: /scripts/check_cpanel_rpms
  It should prompt you to update the MySQL RPMs. Keep in mind that you should backup your existing databases before upgrading to a new version of MySQL. Thank you.
