Hello,
I gave the follow commands to make the binary form in cygwin: autoconf configure.in ./configure and the messages were: loading cache ... bla bla bla checking build system type... i686-pc-cygwin configure: 724: Syntax error: word unexpected (expecting ")") Maybe the cause is the linefeeds conversion from UNIX to DOS. I need help to be able to compile MySQL 5.0 source tree. Sincerely Yours, Iulian Information System Officer/Economist Falticeni, jud. Suceava Romania, Europe
