In my opinion, continued use of depreciated software is a practice that should be avoided whenever possible. Inevitably, it causes problems as you are now experiencing. I am somewhat surprised that the older software is not compatible with the newer version of MySQL. Usually, it is the other way around. Have you checked to see if newer versions of the incompatible software exist? I would be willing to wager that they have been updated to accommodate the newer MySQL versions. -- Jerry [email protected] Disclaimer: off-list followups get on-list replies or get ignored.
