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.
