Finding and Installing older versions

Tags:

LAMP

I need to set up a server running MySQL 4.0.18 and PHP 4.3 to duplicate a live server I'll be building a website on. (I know things should be upgraded, but thats not my call) I can't seem to find how to get and install these old versions anywhere. I'm doing a totally new install for this using Debian 4.0

I'm a web developer not an administrator, so sorry if this is a silly question. I've been searching for how to do this for hours, I'm stuck.

Thanks so much for your help!

Finding and Installing older

Submitted by pinniped on Sat, 2007-11-03 16:47.

You can see if the source directories for 'sarge' still exist. You will have to compile from source though, or else install a Debian release that had those versions. It's not a good idea to try to mix releases.

The other possible sources for the code are the project websites, but if I remember correctly, MySQL doesn't really make the source repository available so you have to hope they still have the old source up.
