I don't think Slimserver 6.5 is MySQL 5 ready yet, and I believe that there are outstanding bugs filed on this. If I remember correctly, there is a problem with one of the data definitions that Slimserver uses. Try installing MySQL 4.1 and using that version. It works just fine for me. --

thanks - switching to MYSQL 4.1 fixed the issue. The other problem that I have been having that for the last few days the builds that I have downloaded, keep crashing, part way through the scan (6.5b1), - this always occurs around 350-400 albums - any ideas - should I revert back to 6.2... --

I've certainly had that happen before. And it nearly aways comes down to bad metatags in my audio files. You might try using some of the debug flags (e.g. --d_scan) and see if you can spot an offending file. Then try removing that file from your library and scanning again. -- gharris999
