An unfortunate result of using Plesk is that it only works with certain versions of these things...

If you want an updated version of mysql, use FreePgs instead.

Or you can use the FreePgs system's MySQL server.

Warning : before you try this, remember that it is not guaranteed to always work as expected. If a Plesk user has a badly configured script connecting to the FreePgs MySQL server, all websites on Plesk using this technique may stop being able to connect to that server.

Now that you've been warned, here's the trick :
- Log in to your account at system.freepgs.com and create your databases.
- In your script(s), update the username/password (if necessary) and change the server name to "freepgs.com".

Note that you will need to use the FreePgs system's phpMyAdmin utility, instead of the Plesk database tools.
