https://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?thread_id=794733&forum _id=72909 The bugs the user is facing look rather like MySQL than phpMyAdmin ones. I concur with that. I don't have a WindowsXP machine to try stuff on, only Linux.
I am running almost the same configuration as the described one (The only difference is that I am using the latest CVS versions of php (v4.4.0-dev) and phpMyAdmin) and I cannot reproduce any of the problems described. I'm running the following on linux: MySQL 4.0.8-gamma (custom compile) PHP 4.3.0 Apache 2.0.43 PMA 2.4.0-dev
And it all works quite fine.
- With version 4.0.0-alpha, MySQL allows secure connections via SSL. Supporting those secure connections is on the very top of my TODO list. As far as I know, php itself does support it since v4.3.0. This should only be the matter of adding 'MYSQL_CLIENT_SSL' to the client flags in the mysql_connect call. It might be worth adding a configuration option for 'MYSQL_CLIENT_COMPRESS' or 'MYSQL_CLIENT_IGNORE_SPACE' as well.
- With MySQL 4.0.2-alpha, a new privilege system was introduced. My new server_privileges.php3 script already supports the main part of this system (It just ignores the SSL part for now). I'm advising anyone who is using MySQL >= 4.0.2-alpha not to edit existing privilege configurations with users_details.php3. If they do edit existing privilege configurations on such a configuration with users_details.php3, what will happen? Is there data loss here?
As a user reported, MySQL 4.1 introduces some major changes that seem to confuse phpMyAdmin at the moment. I'll work on this as soon as MySQL 4.1.0 is released. Could you post a link to that stuff about the user, and also any pointers to what has changed?
To sum it up: - MySQL 4.0: We do not yet support all features, but wo shouldn't destroy anything either. What about that permissions in my question above?
By the way, 4.0.8-gamma is a rather buggy release. MySQL has already released 4.0.9-gamma. I haven't had any trouble with 4.0.8 on linux, and the changelog between 4.0.8 and 4.0.9 is very small.
