4.1.2

• May want to install the full vim with sudoapt-get install vim for future versions since the vim included does not do syntax coloring.
• Migrate to Ubuntu 12.04
• For External Database Loader, need to do this fix in Ubuntu 12.04:

The my.cnf file you should edit is the /etc/mysql/my.cnf file. Just: $ sudo
nano /etc/mysql/my.cnf

Then add:

[mysqld]

local-infile

[mysql]

local-infile

The headers [mysqld] and [mysql] are already given, just locate them in the
file and add local-infile underneath each of them.
(also mysql needs to be restarted after making changes)

Above is not needed; see below issue that needs to be sorted out (likely ubuntu bug):

Ok, something very bizarre is happening here. To make this work, do not even need to make the above configuration changes in /etc/mysql/my.cnf . All you need to do is to restart the current mysql service in terminal:
sudo service mysql restart

Then if I want to "recreate" the bug, I simply restart the apache service:
sudo service apache2 restart

Which can then be fixed again by entering the following command:
sudo service mysql restart

So, it appears that the apache2 is doing something to not allow this feature when it starts up (which is then reversed if restart the mysql service).

Will report more later after more testing
