Hi, I'm just looking at 4.1.2-alpha for the first time and immediately ran into a problem. The IF NOT EXISTS part of CREATE DATABASE doesn't seem to be working -- it causes an error if the database does already exist, just as you would get without the IF NOT EXISTS bit: ===== C:\mysql\bin>mysql -u root Welcome to the MySQL monitor. Commands end with ; or \g. Your MySQL connection id is 1 to server version: 4.1.2-alpha-nt-max Type 'help;' or '\h' for help. Type '\c' to clear the buffer. mysql> create database if not exists foo; Query OK, 1 row affected (0.00 sec) mysql> create database if not exists foo; ERROR 1006 (HY000): Can't create database 'foo' (errno: 17) ===== The above SQL commands worked fine in 4.0.18. Has this been deliberately changed (I couldn't see anything different in the manual), or is it broken? - Steve ------------------------------------------------ Radan Computational Ltd.
