MySQL and MSDE

Is there any reason that these wouldn't run side by side on the same server?

I have to install and intranet on a local network for a client, and there current software uses MSDE.

Their new intranet uses PHP and MySQL.

Can they run side by side?

They should indeed work together. I have no experience with MSDE, but I'm running MySQL in two different versions aswell as the MSSql daemon on the same box and I guess that the later would classify as something similiar to MSDE.

As they don't share the space (ie. use the same physical place on the drive) and you verify that the ports used are different, I personally see no issues.

But for later reference, please be sure to let us know what happens. :wink:
