I thought sqlite was choking on the amount of mp3s I was asking it to read in, so mysql was the alternative. It turns out that might not be the problem, since mysql hasn't been able to do it either since the 2nd beta, and the final merely disappears about 30 secs after it begins re-building the collection, no matter whether I use mysql or sqlite. The main problem for me now, with respect to mysql, is that I can't tell whether it's actually running or not. The service is running, according to MCC, but webmin is not seeing mysql as active, nor startable via "mysql start". I think I might need to research mysql a bit further.
