Hi, can anybody help? I've compiled 6.5.0 from the tarball, and I've
created my MySql database and user as per the notes here:

http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.cgi?ExistingMySQLInstance

I've also updated my .slimserver.prefs file (which alarmingly seems to
now live in the / folder?). Anyway, when I start slimserver I get the
following in the /tmp/slimserver.log file:

I can manually log in to mysql via

> mysql -uslimserver -pmypass

Any thoughts?

Many thanks,
