hii S.K.R
that is resolved , thanks for all your help, the problem was earlier when i installed mysql 4 we had 3.23 on it and the new installation didnot modify the existing my.ini now i just deleted the my.ini and did a fresh install of mysql 4 and it worked , i made no changes to the my.ini created by the new mysql
so u were right in ur first mail it requires absolutely no changes ..... thanks again for all ur help
