Edward,

I have used MySQL 4.1 and now 5.0 with that release of CVSNT and the latest. 
(Native and ODBC)

I did have problems initialy but it was a while ago so I may be confusing 
the issues with my ViewCVS experience. I have experienced two problems that 
I can remember with these two instalations hopefully one will apply.

1. Default instalation of MySQL sets the default engine to InnoDB 
(transactional) CVSNT I seem to rememder requires MyISAM (non 
transactional).

2. The newer versions of MySQL uses a new password hashing algorithum which 
I seem to remember old clients can't use so the the MySQL server as a whole 
or the specific database needs to be told to use the old algorithm. Check 
the MySQL FAQ for some thing like OLD_PASSWORD function.

Have you tried executing the SQL line by line with the CLI? What is actual 
error?

Andy.

I am running CVSNT version 2.5.03.2151 and MySQL version 4.1.7. When
trying to setup the auditing to the database it connects fine but errors
on creating the tables in the database due to an error in the SQL
syntax. According to the auditing tutorial, CVSNT has native support for
MySQL but it does not say for what versions? Has anyone see this
problem?
