Upgrading MySQL in cPanel

Recommended Posts

Hello, I want to install a new application on my unix x86_64 (virtual) server. The server has MySQL Version 5.5.49 but the application requires MySQL 5.6 or upwards.  I want to update MySQL on my server. I have seen an article where it says: Replace the MySQL version from 5.4.9 with 5.6 in /var/cpanel/cpanel.config file

#vi /var/cpanel/cpanel.configand then, change -------"mysql-version=5.4.9" to "mysql-version=5.6".

Neither the directory /var/cpanel/cpanel.config nor the file cpanel.config exist on my server. (Also there is no directory \usr.) Do I have to create these manually? If so what do I enter in the .config file? Is there an easier way of upgrading? There are no buttons on my server for upgrading MySql easily as there is for PHP.
