Hi,
With Hamish's help, I've got as far as logging into the WMT Database
over ssh; it appears that my keys didn't match.
I'm now back to trying to access the database using the MySQL Client in
a shell. Originally, I was getting a problem owing to a mismatch
between the Version on the server (5.1.56) and the version provided by
Ubuntu 23.04 (8.033). I uninstalled the package mysql-client-8.0, and
downloaded MySQL-client-5.1.56-1.glibc23.x86_64.rpm from the MySQL
website, (there is no deb available). I then used alien to convert the
rpm to a deb format and installed it.
However, when I tried to run this, I got:
terry@OptiPlex:~/Useful$ mysql -u <username> -p -h 192.168.0.25 mysql:
error while loading shared libraries: libncursesw.so.5: cannot open
shared object file: No such file or directory
Clearly there is an incompatibility here with the kernel. Does this mean
I cannot use it on this machine without (perhaps) running everything in
a VM?
