We've been using MySQL 3.23 in OSX on our production servers for about 6 months now. The system was in development for over a year prior to that.
We have a legacy application in RealBASIC (it's not my fault!) that uses ODBC to issue numerous REPLACE queries to the database on an hourly basis that sometimes results in a corrupted table. I'm not sure why though. We're replacing this with PHP code currently and that has not caused any corruption on our development server, so we're hopeful that whatever the problem is, it is related to the RealBASIC app or ODBC. Aside from that one problem, it runs wonderfully. We've got the main database running on a G4 867MHz with 1.12GB RAM, and we've got a replica running on an older 500MHz G4 that we use to backup the database. - Gabriel Rob Newman wrote: >Hi there, > >If you could please answer this question impartially as I know a lot of you >use UNIX, Linux and Win machines... > >I am building a website with mySQL and Cold Fusion, and was wondering if >there were any 'issues' with running it from a Mac OSX web server.
