we have to update our mySQL system because our installed verstion (5.2.6) is too old to install Composer. I need it to run with phpSpreadsheet.

The problem is that the php code was never updated to mysqli or something equivalent. It's still "old" mysql.

And at the moment we haven't enough manpower to update the code.

Up to which version runs mysql?

Security is not a reason because it's an internal database application only!

Thanks! Markus

    Security is always a reason. Even (especially ?) if it's internal to an enterprise. – Cid Jan 28 '19 at 15:09
