Ken,
Thank you for your very helpful notes. We took your advice and
updated to FreeBSD 4.3 and the last version of MYSQL. We are still
experiencing problems with MYSQL, though. We installed it fresh, with
no freeBSD tweaks. I was not able to locate the email you referred to
regarding FreeBSD installs. If you have any pointers on tweaking a
freeBSD install, it would be very helpful.
Regards,
Michael Caplan

Hi Michael,
As another FreeBSD user that has posted many times on FreeBSD
topics realted to MySQL it only took me a few minutes to find
resolutions, the problem is that some of the thread topics are
related and the answers were posted in a different thread from the
ones that orginally started a question. I think the search engine
could be improved!
Freebsd 4.2 does have a number of bugs related to threads and the
compiler for threaded programs . (Search 'freebsd compiler threads)
first topic on second page) I would recommend an upgrade to 4.3 and an
upgrade to a more recent MySQL is also highly recommended (3.23.39 or
.40 when it comes outs).
Upgrade your ports collection and install from ports or find my
previous posts or e-mail me direclty and I will send you some
compilation instructions as the manual seems to be outdated in
relation to compiling freebsd.
Best of luck, hope this helps
Ken
