Re: Can I use CLIENT variable storage with MySQL 5?
Unless things have changed with mySQL you have to hand-create the tables. You'll also have to manually fire up the drivers and dsn as was described earlier. I just went to my server and read out my table stru via SQLYog. Here it is. Note the myISAM table type. Note also the lack of a primary key in the cglobal table. These tables were brought in from a mySQL 4.x installation, and before that they were generated by CF automatically in another platform and then imported into mySQL. CREATE TABLE `cdata` ( `cfid` varchar(64) NOT NULL default '', `app` varchar(64) NOT NULL, `data` longtext NOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY (`cfid`,`app`) ) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8 CREATE TABLE `cglobal` ( `cfid` varchar(64) NOT NULL default '', `data` longtext NOT NULL, `lvisit` timestamp NOT NULL default CURRENT_TIMESTAMP on update CURRENT_TIMESTAMP, KEY `cfid` (`cfid`,`lvisit`) ) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8 -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] Janitor, The Robertson Team mysecretbase.com ~| Create robust enterprise, web RIAs.

Re: Can I use CLIENT variable storage with MySQL 5?
With Client variables, I believe you have to first have your datasource set up and working. THEN you go into the CFAdministrator and set up the Client vars. It's a while since i set up Client vars, but if i recall correctly, it has to check the datasource when you 'submit' after changing the details of the client vars. One of hte options at that time is to let it create its own CFDATA and CFGLOBAL tables, and I'd recommend letting it do it. Then you know for sure its all going to work. But i dont believe client vars use any tricky sql at all, so it should work on any database that is avlid datasource for CF. It only does SQLinserts, deletes and selects.

Re: Can I use CLIENT variable storage with MySQL 5?
Not sure it will help but this the SQL to create the tables for MS SQL. Note the table names are CDATA and CGLOBAL (not cFdata and cFglobal): CREATE TABLE [dbo].[CDATA] ( [cfid] [char] (64) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NULL , [app] [char] (64) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NULL , [data] [text] COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NULL ) ON [PRIMARY] TEXTIMAGE_ON [PRIMARY] CREATE TABLE [dbo].[CGLOBAL] ( [cfid] [char] (64) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NULL , [data] [text] COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NULL , [lvisit] [datetime] NULL ) ON [PRIMARY] TEXTIMAGE_ON [PRIMARY] - Original Message - From: Jonathan Block [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: CF-Talk cf-talk@houseoffusion.com Sent: Monday, March 12, 2007 1:24 AM Subject: Can I use CLIENT variable storage with MySQL 5?
