Hi, I just started using current WAMP with mySQL 5.0.21, but my software (X-CART) can work only with mySQL 5.0.11 and older. Is it possible to change just mySQL to an older version and leave all the rest? How to do it?.

I'm not to experienced with apache and I don't want to change back to older version of WAMP.
Would appreciate any help.

you can find older copies of WAMP that have older versions of mysql, php, apache etc here:
[sourceforge.net]

Yes, but I would need to go back to version WAMP 1.4.4, which is very uncomfortable to work with. (and php admin too)
Is there any method to change only MySQL in the current WAMP 1.6.3 ?

Well, WAMP is a special customization of Apache, MySQL, and PHP by the developer. Since it is not a standard Apache, MySQL and PHP install, it would take an intimate knowledge of how WAMP sets up and customizes Apache, MySQL and Windows to setup. There is a much easier way to do this though, just use an older version of WAMP that has the version of MySQL you are looking for.

You should download and install WAMP version 1.4.4. It comes with MySQL 4.1.10. The next WAMP release after that is WAMP 1.4.5 which uses MySQL 5.0.15 which will not work with your script.

Download WAMP 1.4.4 here:
[prdownloads.sourceforge.net]
