MySQL 5.0 now available for Windows x64!

MySQL 5.0.19 was announced on March 10th and the developers have been very busy with resolving many of the bugs that were reported. Something that did not really get much attention because of all these changes was the fact that we now provide binaries for Microsoft Windows Server 2003 x64 (AMD64/Intel EM64T) as well!
If you run the 64bit version of this OS, give these binaries a try and let us know how they fared for you! Kudos to the build team for making these happen.

The binaries are terrible. The install package does not install as a service even if you select those options and the ODBC cannot connect to a mysql database on windows 2003 x64 server. Mysql support has been silent with a response.

Thanks for the feedback! Did you file these issues as bugs in our bug database? I'd like to point our devs to these issues, so they can address them for the next release. Thanks! LenZ

Have installed the x64 version, and no problems so far.
