Hi All,

I just updated the OS/2 port of MySQL to v5.1.35 in line with the latest=20
official release.

If there are still people out there using MySQL v5.0 - and would like to=20
see an update, please let me know.  At this stage, I'm assuming that peop=
le=20
have upgraded to v5.1, so haven't been updating 5.0.

btw I'm also experimenting with giving updates on what I'm doing in=20
relation to OS/2 at http://twitter.com/PaulSmedley

Cheers,

Paul.

This release of MySQL has two known outstanding issues for
Windows:

   * The .msi installer does not detect an existing root password
     on the initial configuration attempt. To work around this,
     install and configure MySQL as normal, but skip any changes to
     security. (There is a checkbox that allows this on the
     security screen of the configuration wizard.) Then check your
     settings:

        + If the old root password and security settings are okay,
          you are done and can proceed to use MySQL.

        + Otherwise, reconfigure with the wizard and make any
          changes on the second configuration attempt. The wizard
          will properly prompt for the existing root password and
          allow changes to be made.

     This issue has been filed as
     Bug#45200: http://bugs.mysql.com/45200 for correction in a
     future release.

   * The Windows configuration wizard allows changes to InnoDB
     settings during a reconfiguration operation. For an upgrade,
     this may cause difficulties. To work around this, use one of
     the following alternatives:

        + Do not change InnoDB settings.

        + Copy files from the old InnoDB location to the new one.

     This issue has been filed as
     Bug#45201: http://bugs.mysql.com/45201 for correction in a
     future release.

Bugs fixed:

   * Important Change: Replication: The transactional behavior of
     STOP SLAVE has changed. Formerly, it took effect immediately,
     even inside a transaction; now, it waits until the current
     replication event group (if any) has finished executing, or
     until the user issues a KILL QUERY or KILL CONNECTION
     statement.

     This was done in order to solve the problem encountered when
     replication was stopped while a nontransactional slave was
     replicating a transaction on the master. (It was impossible to
     roll back a mixed-engines transaction when one of the engines
     was nontransactional, which meant that the slave could not
     safely re-apply any transaction that had been interrupted by
     STOP SLAVE.) (Bug#319: http://bugs.mysql.com/319,
     Bug#38205: http://bugs.mysql.com/38205)
     See also Bug#43217: http://bugs.mysql.com/43217.

   * Partitioning: When a value was equal to a PARTITION ... VALUES
     LESS THAN (value) value other than MAXVALUE, the corresponding
     partition was not pruned.
     (Bug#42944: http://bugs.mysql.com/42944)

   * Replication: Unrelated errors occurring during the execution
     of RESET SLAVE could cause the slave to crash.
     (Bug#44179: http://bugs.mysql.com/44179)

   * Replication: The --slave-skip-errors option had no effect when
     using row-based logging format.
     (Bug#39393: http://bugs.mysql.com/39393)

   * Replication: The following erors were not correctly reported:

        + Failures during slave thread initialization

        + Failures while initializing the relay log position
          (immediately following the starting of the slave thread)

        + Failures while processing queries passed through the
          --init_slave option.

     Information about these types of failures can now be found in
     the output of SHOW SLAVE STATUS.
     (Bug#38197: http://bugs.mysql.com/38197)

   * Replication: Killing the thread executing a DDL statement,
     after it had finished its execution but before it had written
     the binlog event, caused the error code in the binlog event to
     be set (incorrectly) to ER_SERVER_SHUTDOWN or
     ER_QUERY_INTERRUPTED, which caused replication to fail.
     (Bug#37145: http://bugs.mysql.com/37145)

     See also Bug#27571: http://bugs.mysql.com/27571,
     Bug#22725: http://bugs.mysql.com/22725.

   * Replication: Column alises used inside subqueries were ignored
     in the binary log. (Bug#35515: http://bugs.mysql.com/35515)

   * Valgrind warnings for the DECODE(), ENCRYPT(), and
     FIND_IN_SET() functions were corrected.
     (Bug#44358: http://bugs.mysql.com/44358,
     Bug#44365: http://bugs.mysql.com/44365,
     Bug#44367: http://bugs.mysql.com/44367)

   * On Windows, entries for build-vs9.bat and build-vs9_x64.bat
     were missing in win/Makefile.am.
     (Bug#44353: http://bugs.mysql.com/44353)

   * Incomplete cleanup of JOIN_TAB::select during the filesort of
     rows for a GROUP BY clause inside a subquery caused a server
     crash. (Bug#44290: http://bugs.mysql.com/44290)

   * Not all lock types had proper descriptive strings, resulting
     in garbage output from mysqladmin debug.
     (Bug#44164: http://bugs.mysql.com/44164)

   * Use of HANDLER statements with INFORMATION_SCHEMA tables
     caused a server crash. Now HANDLER is prohibited with such
     tables. (Bug#44151: http://bugs.mysql.com/44151)

   * Invoking SHOW TABLE STATUS from within a stored procedure
     could cause a Packets out of order error.
     (Bug#43962: http://bugs.mysql.com/43962)

   * myisamchk could display a negative Max keyfile length value.
     (Bug#43950: http://bugs.mysql.com/43950)

   * On 64-bit systems, a key_buffer_size value larger than 4GB
     could couse MyISAM index corruption.
     (Bug#43932: http://bugs.mysql.com/43932)

   * mysqld_multi incorrectly passed --no-defaults to mysqld_safe.
     (Bug#43876: http://bugs.mysql.com/43876)

   * SHOW VARIABLES did not properly display the value of
     slave_skip_errors. (Bug#43835: http://bugs.mysql.com/43835)

   * On Windows, a server crash occurred for attempts to insert a
     floating-point value into a CHAR column with a maximum length
     less than the converted floating-point value length.
     (Bug#43833: http://bugs.mysql.com/43833)

   * Incorrect initialization of MyISAM table indexes could cause
     incorrect query results.
     (Bug#43737: http://bugs.mysql.com/43737)

   * libmysqld crashed when it was reinitialized.
     (Bug#43706: http://bugs.mysql.com/43706,
     Bug#44091: http://bugs.mysql.com/44091)

   * InnoDB uses random numbers to generate dives into indexes for
     calculating index cardinality. However, under certain
     conditions, the algorithm did not generate random numbers, so
     ANALYZE TABLE did not update cardinality estimates properly. A
     new algorithm has been introduced with better randomization
     properties, together with a system variable,
     innodb_use_legacy_cardinality_algorithm, that controls which
     algorithm to use. The default value of the variable is 1 (ON),
     to use the original algorithm for compatibility with existing
     applications. The variable can be set to 0 (OFF) to use the
     new algorithm with improved randomness.
     (Bug#43660: http://bugs.mysql.com/43660)

   * UNION of floating-point numbers did unnecessary rounding.
     (Bug#43432: http://bugs.mysql.com/43432)

   * ALTER DATABASE ... UPGRADE DATA DIRECTORY NAME failed when the
     database contained views.
     (Bug#43385: http://bugs.mysql.com/43385)

   * Certain statements might open a table and then wait for an
     impending global read lock without noticing whether they hold
     a table being waiting for by the global read lock, causing a
     hang. Affected statements are SELECT ... FOR UPDATE, LOCK
     TABLES ... WRITE, TRUNCATE TABLE, and LOAD DATA INFILE.
     (Bug#43230: http://bugs.mysql.com/43230)

   * Using an XML function such as ExtractValue() more than once in
     a single query could produce erroneous results.
     (Bug#43183: http://bugs.mysql.com/43183)
     See also Bug#43937: http://bugs.mysql.com/43937.

   * Full-text prefix searches could hang the connection and cause
     100% CPU consumption. (Bug#42907: http://bugs.mysql.com/42907)

   * InnoDB had excessive contention for a character set mutex.
     (Bug#42649: http://bugs.mysql.com/42649)

   * Incorrect elevation of warning messages to error messages for
     unsafe statements caused a server crash.
     (Bug#42640: http://bugs.mysql.com/42640)

   * CHECK TABLE suggested use of REPAIR TABLE for corrupt tables
     for storage engines not supported by REPAIR TABLE. Now CHECK
     TABLE suggests that the user dump and reload the table.
     (Bug#42563: http://bugs.mysql.com/42563)

   * Compressing a table with the myisampack utility caused the
     server to produce Valgrind warnings when it opened the table.
     (Bug#41541: http://bugs.mysql.com/41541)

   * For a MyISAM table with DELAY_KEY_WRITE enabled, the index
     file could be corrupted without the table being marked as
     crashed if the server was killed.
     (Bug#41330: http://bugs.mysql.com/41330)

   * Killing an INSERT ... SELECT statement for a MyISAM table
     could cause table corruption if the table had indexes.
     (Bug#40827: http://bugs.mysql.com/40827)

   * A multiple-table DELETE IGNORE statement involving a foreign
     key constraint caused an assertion failure.
     (Bug#40127: http://bugs.mysql.com/40127)

   * Multiple-table UPDATE statements did not properly activate
     triggers. (Bug#39953: http://bugs.mysql.com/39953)

   * The mysql_setpermission operation for removing database
     privileges removed global privileges instead.
     (Bug#39852: http://bugs.mysql.com/39852)

   * A stored routine contain a C-style comment could not be dumped
     and reloaded. (Bug#39559: http://bugs.mysql.com/39559)

   * In an UPDATE or DELETE via a secondary index, InnoDB did not
     store the cursor position. This made InnoDB crash in
     semi-consistent read while attempting to unlock a nonmatching
     record. (Bug#39320: http://bugs.mysql.com/39320)

   * The functions listed in Section 11.13.4.2.3, "Creating
     Geometry Values Using MySQL-Specific Functions," previously
     accepted WKB arguments and returned WKB values. They now
     accept WKB or geometry arguments and return geometry values.
     The functions listed in Section 11.13.4.2.2, "Creating
     Geometry Values Using WKB Functions," previously accepted WKB
     arguments and returned geometry values. They now accept WKB or
     geometry arguments and return geometry values.
     (Bug#38990: http://bugs.mysql.com/38990)

   * On WIndows, running the server with myisam_use_mmap enabled
     caused MyISAM table corruption.
     (Bug#38848: http://bugs.mysql.com/38848)

   * CHECK TABLE did not properly check whether MyISAM tables
     created by servers from MySQL 4.0 or older needed to be
     upgraded. This could cause problems upgrading to MySQL 5.1 or
     higher. (Bug#37631: http://bugs.mysql.com/37631)

   * An UPDATE statement that updated a column using the same
     DES_ENCRYPT() value for each row actually updated different
     rows with different values.
     (Bug#35087: http://bugs.mysql.com/35087)

   * For shared-memory connections, the read and write methods did
     not properly handle asynchronous close events, which could
     lead to the client locking up waiting for a server response.
     For example, a call to mysql_real_query() would block forever
     on the client side if the executed statement was aborted on
     the server side. Thanks to Armin Sch=F6ffmann for the bug report
     and patch. (Bug#33899: http://bugs.mysql.com/33899)

   * CHECKSUM TABLE was not killable with KILL QUERY.
     (Bug#33146: http://bugs.mysql.com/33146)

   * myisamchk and myisampack were not being linked with the
     library that enabled support for * filename pattern expansion.
     (Bug#29248: http://bugs.mysql.com/29248)

   * For InnoDB tables that have their own .ibd tablespace file, a
     superfluous ibuf cursor restoration fails! message could be
     written to the error log. This warning has been suppressed.
     (Bug#27276: http://bugs.mysql.com/27276)

   * COMMIT did not delete savepoints if there were no changes in
     the transaction. (Bug#26288: http://bugs.mysql.com/26288)

   * Several memory allocation functions were not being checked for
     out-of-memory return values.
     (Bug#25058: http://bugs.mysql.com/25058)
