I already have an instance of MySQL running on my laptop (Windows 7) so I decided to just install version 1.0. Setting up the database isn’t very difficult. It does give two wxWidgets debug alerts but after dismissing them it seems to run just fine. I successfully imported the Italian Opera map and everything works as expected. Thanks for the work on this!

Hi !
@bobmclain :
Normally, you shouldn’t need to modify any config (clicking on the pencil) : it should work right out of the box..
The fact that it doesn’t even propose you to create a new database could mean that it succeeded to load the database plugin ( c:\program files/goozzee/lib/database/MysqlEmbedded.dll) but couldn’t initialize a connection to the DB.
This database initialization needs two things :
- directory /Users/
/goozzee.docs/datafiles should exist (it is created by the program before trying to connect to the DB
- my.ini and errmsg.sys files should be present in c:\program files\goozzee\lib\database
Could you lease check if they’re present ?
I was also thinking about some firewall problem, but I don’t think Embedded Mysql uses tcp_ip : I guess it’s just accessing its datafiles. So a firewall shouldn’t be a problem…
Or maybe some access right problem that prevented it to create the goozzee.docs directory inside your homedir. But that would be weird : it’s your homedir, after all..
Or maybe your user name contains some weird characters that would screw my program ??
I’m really sorry ! That’s all I can think of for now..
@CRC :
Thanks for your time and your feedback ! Please let me know what you like/dislike and the features you’d like to see implemented !

Dammit ! part of my post has been eaten up….
I wanted to write :
- directory /Users/your_windows_user_name/goozzee.docs/datafiles
should exist (it is created by the program before trying to connect to
the DB
