MySQL version
-
I'm going to convert my H2 database to a MySql database. I have read all the posts I can find and am confident I can manage the conversion but I didn't find anything about what version of MySQL to use and I want to make sure I use a version of MySql that has been tested.
What is the recommended version of MySQL should I be installing?
I'm running Mango version 3.7.4.
-
Since Mango 3.7.0 we are using a JSON type column so as per the release notes:
* IMPORTANT the User data column in the database is of type JSON for MySQL which is only supported in version 5.7.8 and above
-
The statement above implies Mango 3.7.x is compatible with MySQL v8.x. Is it possible to get verification this is the case?
-
@cmusselm I have not explicitly tested v8.x but I have no reason to think it would not work.
-
Awesome, thank you!

FYI, I did upgrade the MySQL DB to 8.x over a week ago and all is running well; no issues.
