Hi,

I see that you get all kinds of responses on the zope mailing list =
regarding Zope, mySQL and Windows. Hate to see that ... well  .. to your =
problems:

I run Windows 2000 on my laptop with Zope 2.2.4 and mySQL 3.23.30.=20

I even run the same Zope and mySQL setup on a Compaq server with Windows =
4.0 in a production environment. Not the kind of setup I would prefer, =
but my customer wanted it installed on this server. Anyway: the setup is =
100% stable, and I and my customer is really satisfied with the =
solution.

I had problems getting things working when I compiled the mysql.dll file =
manually. Instead, I downloaded the files as specified in the HOW-TO on =
mySQL in win32 environment.=20

With these files installed I have no problems performing different =
queries, inserts, updates etc in the mySQL database. I have not =
experienced one crash!!

The setup has also been tested (though not thorougly) under Windows 95 =
and Windows 98!

So: try to follow the HOW-TO and download the files specified there. =
Setting up Zope & mySQL on Win32 machines takes no for me at all, and it =
always runs very well!!

Best of luck to you!

Best regards

Petter Enholm
