FYI MySQL has its own owner/group access method (you use it when you log
in to the server as user root, as you mention above) however I was
implying the problems might well be Windoze XP permissions... There are
two sorts of users in a Windoze XP platform - Administrator and Limited
- it could well be that as a Limited user you might well have been
trying to access or create a directory owned by an Administrator... Its
just a guess, however as someone else has mentioned in this ng, v5 alpha
on XP doesn't seems buggy...
I think better stick with v4 since its stable and alot of folk have
experience with it on mixed platforms. I come from a LAMP (Linux,
Apache, MySQL and PHP) background however I develope using WAMP
(everything on Windoze XP) and I use v4.1.8 and it works like a charm
(though it never gets under pressure since its only personal use on my
own laptop).
Hope something above helps... best of luck and don't give up...
