Working fine with emulation (compiling and more) on last debian sarge.
You just need to use old password method in mysql config

I can understand people running on windows will want a working emulation like other on linux BUT i don't think it was more easy to run linux version, perhaps just linux user are more skilled in computer and it was more easy to make it run ? (i'm not skilled !!! :p ).
I'm not a dev, i'm not a database builder, i have make server on windows (first) and linux (now) but when i ask something since 1 year i'm rarely "flamed" ?
I just try to understand myself, read the forum, and ask when i don't understand.
If ear someone say "read the docs" or "use search function" is a flame, of course flame is every day :( But i think flame is more expressive and more impolite.
Now i'm trying to help and sometimes when i'm tired, i'm flame (like you say) some questions... i'm trying to change my manner, but sometimes I crack... like many people who helping in eqemu...
Ref: Mysql4.X vs Mysql 5.0
That's very important ? we can find easy mysql 4.X version, Mysql 5.0 is very better ? and why it is ? for user or devs ? Anyone can explain difference ?
I think if it was just a dev issue, devs must be choose mysql version, no ? |
For me, compiling the source was much easier under Linux than under windows - I tried two different versions of MS VS, last one was 2005 proffesional - and the first thing i would get were the Microsoft version errors - then there were other errors, errors with the zlib files, and with the SQL lib files. I was manually moving files into the MSVC bin directory and eliminating errors, but eventually there were a few that stayed. One was the MS version errors.
When I tried Linux, I just had to install the c++ libs, it compiled on the first try. The executables ran fine, but I ran into another problem which was (believe it or not), couldn't find login server.
I will try again one of these days, maybe you can help me.
