Package: libdbd-mysql Version: 0.7.1-3 Severity: grave When running applications built with libdbi0 (0.7.2-1), the pgsql (libdbd-pgsql) and sqlite (libdbd-sqlite) drivers work ok. The mysql driver (this package) is able to connect to databases, but any attempt to retrieve stored data fails with an error code indicating a data type mismatch between the SQL column and the retrieval function. As an example, you cannot retrieve a 4 byte integer from a MySQL column of type INT using the dbi_result_get_long() function.
Attempting to insert data into existing tables causes the app to segfault. Building libdbi and libdbi-drivers from CVS source cures both problems. Other relevant versions: mysql-server-4.1: 4.1.11-3 libmysqlclient14: 4.1.11-3 Debian 3.0 testing Linux version 2.4.26-1-k7 ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) (gcc version 3.3.3 (Debian 20040401)) libc6-2.3.2.ds1-21 I suggest rebuilding the package using recent versions of libmysqlclient. regards, Markus -- Markus Hoenicka [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Spam-protected email: replace the quadrupeds with "mhoenicka") http://www.mhoenicka.de -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
