Hi, Nick.

Not that it helps you much - but, no, I don't think that's normal - I
didn't get this when installing on MySQL 5.0.24 (latest stable version),
compiled from source.  You might get compatibility issues if your
version of MySQL is out of date ... what are you running?

I'm sure Mike Williams will be along to help you debug it ...

Completely agree - especially when you're in a network which requires
the use of a proxy to reach the web ...

Bleugh.

Still, once it's up and running it should be easy to maintain, or so I'm
led to believe!

Peter.
