Correct MySQL Version
If cPanel is displaying the wrong version of MySQL, you'll need to access the filesystem for that particular user and remove/rename a file or two.
-
If cPanel is displaying the wrong version of MySQL, you'll need to:
cd /home/cpanelusername/.cpanel/datastore
Once in the directory, you should see a file that's named something along the lines of:
usr_sbin_mysqld_.
-
Just in case something blows up, go ahead and rename the file:
mv -v _usr_sbin_mysqld_--version _usr_sbin_mysqld_--version.bad
-
Once that's done, log in to cPanel for that particular customer and the file will get re-created with the correct info
