Spam Karma 2 SQL errors

An update to my previous post: I believe my Spam Karma 2 SQL errors are due to the use of MySQL 3.2.3. SK2 documentation strongly recommends MySQL 4+. Indeed, I have no trouble purging the SK2-captured spam using MySQL 5.

    How do you find out which version of MySQL you are running? I am using Linux Economy hosting from Goddaddy.com

  2. Sam Stevens Says:

    Hello Milan! Running phpinfo() will reveal which version of MySQL you are running:

    I have one hosting account with GoDaddy and I believe it has MySQL 5, though I'm not sure if that's the same version across all their plans. Hope that helps!

    Many thanks. I have been having lots of SQL errors with WordPress and, while I initially thought it was the result of some kind of malicious code being inserted in comments, it is probably something closer to what you describe above.

    My Linux GoDaddy account seems to be running MySQL 4.1.

  4. Sam Stevens Says:

    Hmm, you are using MySQL 4.1 and SK2 recommends 4 and above. The SQL errors should give you some indication of what plugin or function is causing the problems. Feel free to post an error message here and perhaps I'll recognize it on sight.
