Why am I encountering an issue stating 'You are attempting to install a LOWER MySQL version than the currently installed one' during my installation process

This error occurs when you have a more recent version of MySQL/MariaDB running than the one supported. This situation can arise due to the practice of initially placing new releases of MySQL/MariaDB in the Beta repository before moving them to the Stable repositories. This approach allows for testing before a production release. Consequently, the version of MySQL/MariaDB available in the vendor repositories might be higher than the appropriate version in the Cloudlinux production repositories.

In this scenario, you have two options for proceeding:

Option 1: If the new version of MySQL/MariaDB you require is already present in our beta repository, you can complete the installation of MySQL Governor by executing the following command:

# /usr/share/lve/dbgovernor/mysqlgovernor.py --install-beta

Option 2: If the specific MySQL/MariaDB version you need is not yet available in the beta repository, kindly wait for 1-3 days and revisit the CloudLinux Blog. In some cases, there might be a slight delay due to the preparation of the database release.
