Thank you both for the quick replies — I understand better now, and thank you for clarifying my misinterpretation of the issue. This makes perfect sense.
I’ll work on upgrading to MariaDB 10 … it does look reasonably straightforward. Thanks for the offer @smartvox, I’ll be sure to reach out if needed!
Much appreciated!
Hi Paul,
I’m on a CentOS7 machine with MariaDB 5.5.68 as well. According to the MariaDB developers, that version DOES support IPv6 — they say MariaDB has supported IPv6 since v5.5.
Would it be possible for Shield to allow MariaDB v5.5 and up, even if MySQL requires v5.6 and higher? It would appear that, at least in this case, MariaDB includes the appropriate support at the lower version number.
Or am I misinterpreting something on the dev site vs. what Shield requires?
Thanks!
