Hi,

 my MySQL version is  5.0.22. Is there a workaround so mahara will work with that version? I am using LXAdmin on a VPS and it has been suggested to me not to update MySQL.

 Thanks, Dirk

Hi Dirk - I know of no workarounds. There is a bug in MySQL in those previous versions that causes the group pages to crash.

If you're on a VPS, surely you can install your own MySQL? Or even Postgres?

Thanks Nigel.

Scarred of shell but had a drink and got adventurous. Works well now.

 For anyone interested. I ran this:

 yum -y install mysql
