is mysqlsb compatible with MySQL 5.0?

My web server told me it isn't, which is why they are sticking with
MySQL 4.0 for now, but I'm obsessed with using the latest versions, so I
just want to be sure. According to the mysqldb download page at
sourceforge, it is compatible with 5.0

Thanks.

Yes! It does.

Assuming that you are not terribly bandwidth constrained, isn't it
easier for you to try it
yourself on your own machine than wait for other people to assure you,
given that both are free and pretty much run on any platform?

Yeah, actually I went ahead and installed them both to try it out, but
Norton Internet Security is causing huge problems with the MySQL setup.
Even when I disable it, it won't let me get past the configuration steps. :(

Ah! An overzealous firewall! My sympathies :-). I am using the free
Kerio personal firewall on Windows.

Actually, I'm a little confused now. I turned off Norton completely (as
far as I can tell), restarted, and the configuration wizard of MySQL
still fails at the "Start service" step. I just don't get it.

As a result, I am currently in the market for a different (and free)
firewall program, so I will check out that one you mentioned. :)

One question may be: which version of Python are they running; which
version of MySQLdb; etc.


They just upgraded everything to the latest version (Python, mysqldb,
mod_python), but they said they are waiting to upgrade MySQL because of
the incompatibility .

WinXP? What error do you get from the wizard? (You are running in an
Admin privilege I presume).


Yes, WinXP and admin.

At first, when Norton was running, I got a 1045 error message saying to
allow TCP port 3306. I tried creating a rule to do this, but it didn't
seem to work.

Then I turned off Norton completely and it still stopped at the same
step, but this time said: "The service could not be stopped. Error: 0"

All I want to do is use MySQL so I can follow along with Baseball Hacks. :(

How do I do that?

You might (since it sounds like this is a first attempt) need to
uninstall everything -- and make sure you delete the mysql database (in
case you have a garbaged root login)


Ugh, if this is the case, is there more to uninstall than just using the
Add/Remove programs? Where do I delete the database?

I have a Mysql database hosted on a remote server. Previously, I could always connect to those databases using the 3.51 ODBC connector and linking the tables in Access. The benefit of this is that I can view the data from my desktop, export it to spreadsheets if necessary and print labels. I guess because of a Mysql upgrade by my host, the 3.51 connector stopped working (the password hash problem), so I upgraded to the 5.* ODBC...
