Responsible Person, We have been asked by a client, to use your products in our intergration efforts. Your MySQL 3.23.49a [Stable version?] for Sun Solaris x86, version, 5.8, is offered without the installation file ./scripts/mysql_install_db. The ./scripts/mysql_install_db, that comes with it, is EMPTY! Your MySQL-MAX 3.23.49a, although it gets a little further along in the installation phase [in that a deamon start-up], only some of the commands are execuatble/executing. This is not a normal [nor acceptable] situation in the UNIX world, when commands in the same directory are not all executable [No PATH problems here]. None of the following commands seem to work: mysql, mysqladmin, BINDER/(anything), just to name a few. The instructions were followed to the dot [as we have previously done with REDHat Linux 7.2, of the above mentioned]. We have also come to find, that your JDBC [mm.mysql.jdbc-1.2c.tar.gz] driver currently has a problem in being recognised in the FORTE developement environment. Please know, that we are not at all new to the communal-developement environment. However, whenevr anything is posted to be working, it should be exactly that. Ommission errors of the magnitude we have found, are pure 'Microsoftish' in nature, and should have no place anywhere, integrity not withstanding. Besides our practice of believing, that sometimes bad things happen to good people/things, perhaps by us bringing these faults to your attention that some good will come of this. In the meatime, I await a prompt response. As for our client, depending upon your promptness, they may not cancel the current licensing agreement with you.
