I'm not sure what I might be missing here, but I'm seeking advice on resolving an issue I'm having with backups using MySQL Administrator 1.0.20 on a MySQL 4.0.20 DB...

It appears to me that with Administrator 1.0.20 all the "backup execution method" options that would appear to be appropriate for my use with my InnoDB tables result in the invocation of the backup starting with "START TRANSACTION WITH CONSISTENT SNAPSHOT". The MySQL docs state that this functionality didn't come about until MySQL 4.1.8. As a result, my backup don't run.

Here are my thoughts on avenues I might pursue:

Is this a bug or is this intended behavior (and running a version of MySQL prior to 4.1.8 is my problem problem)?

Are there backup options in MySQL Administrator that I can use to accomplish a backup comparable to those I got before MySQL Administrator 1.0.20? (I'm currently attempting to use "Online with binlog pos" and "Complete backup".)

Where can I download older versions of MySQL Administrator (they all worked fine for me prior to 1.0.20)?

Thank you for your time and any advice would be appreciated.
