First of all, always CC serusers. Other users may have (or may get) the same problems. libmysqlclient is most likely your problem. Version 10 is ,mysql 3.23, while version 14 is 4.x. The libraries are quite different and a crash is only natural. You need to install either the 3.23 version of mysql OR the 3.x compatibility libraries for version 4.x. You will find them at http://dev.mysql.com/ or maybe throug hyour distribution. g-) Damian Bundred wrote: > Hi, > you seem to know alot about SER, and i was wondering if you could > help, and point out anywhere that i've gone wrong, or made false > assumptions.
