Is this on one line or two (I'm assuming two and it looks like two thanks
to mail client line wrapping)?

IT's on a single line

ok, cool.


Did you ./configure --with-mysql or not?

I installed via Debian binaries.  I did this before my system didn't work 
because of a configuration problem and I had this all working.  This time 
around I can't figure out the problem.  And of course I forgot to write down 
how I fixed this the first time.
 
ok, well in this case it could be that the binary you have does not have mysql 
support compiled into it. I think your easiest way out of this (especially if 
you intend to stick with the Debian binaries for upgrading) is to use unified 
output and then use barnyard to process and send to MySQL.
