Can I import my site onto an InterWorx-CP server running a lower version of MySQL than my old hosts box?
No, you will encounter problems with restoring your databases if you do this. Or, to put it simply, “things will break.” For example your old host has MySQL 4.1 and the InterWorx box has 3.3 (the default for CentOS 3.x), it will not work correctly because MySQL 4 has some differences in the table format that 3.x won’t understand. If this is the case you should locate and install updated RPM’s before trying to import your site.
