Hello. I'm part of a group working on porting to Java certain functions previously performed through perl scripts on our MySQL database, and would appreciate any help with an error that has brought our development to a standstill.

Running a test connect program, we are experiencing the following:

Connected to jdbc:mysql://localhost/slash?autoReconnect=true&useUnicode=false Driver Mark Matthews' MySQL Driver Version 1.1g

caught an SQLExeption java.sql.SQLException: Error during query: ISO8859_1 at java/lang/Throwable.<init>(30) at java/lang/Exception.<init>(21) at java/sql/SQLException.<init>(21) at java/sql/SQLException.<init>(28) at org/gjt/mm/mysql/Connection.execSQL(801) at org/gjt/mm/mysql/Connection.execSQL(733) at org/gjt/mm/mysql/Statement.executeQuery(155) at Connect.main(50)

I've traced the error as far as line 489 of MysqlIO.java, where it goes off into Java IO land (as far as I can tell), and I feel like at this point it must be an OS problem of some kind. But the 8859-1 code page is happily loaded into the kernel and we have no other problems with character sets in any other applications.

Can anyone offer any insight or suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Eric
