That means i'm running GCC/G++ VERSION 3.0.1 Could someone please be kind to explain IN DUMB SPEAK for a newbie like me, EXACTLY what i should do to install mysql++ ? Should i install it as ROOT? or just the normal account i normally use [user == pure]? I have mysql running already... mysql 1950 0.0 1.4 27064 4576 ? S Nov01 0:00 /usr/sbin/mysqld --basedir=/ --datadir=/var/lib/mysq....... so, could someone please explain what to do exactly please. ie. 1.log in as user 'pure' into shell 2. download <file> into pure root home directory [from where?] 3. download patch 4. rpm -vhi <downloaded file> 5. run patch 6. do this 7. do that 8. headbutt monitor 9. goto 6. etc.. etc.. i do appologise if this sounds very lame, but i'm fed up with trying to figure this stuff out by myself and i'm running out of time. Thank you dearly in-advance to any support i receive.
