exporting data to mysql server

[Barry Rosenberg]

Hi all,

I want to save my gnucash file to a remote mysql server. (Until now I have
been using an xml file stored locally).

I receive error "*The server at URL <redacted> experienced an error or
encountered bad or corrupt data."*

Below is contents of the trace file:

* 16:24:23  CRIT <GLib> g_utf8_to_utf16: assertion `str != NULL' failed
* 16:24:24  CRIT <gnc.backend.dbi> [gnc_dbi_mysql_session_begin()] Unable
to connect to database 'gnucash'
* 16:24:25  CRIT <gnc.backend.dbi> gnc_dbi_unlock: assertion
`dbi_conn_error( dcon, NULL ) == 0' failed
* 16:24:25  CRIT <gnc.engine.sx> gnc_sx_get_sxes_referencing_account:
assertion `sxactions != NULL' failed

I created a database called "gnucash" on my server. However, my hosting
provider does not allow remote mysql users to execute "CREATE DATABASE"
statements. Could this be the issue?

>From the trace file it looks like it's never actually connecting
successfully. Where could the "str != NULL" be coming from?

Thanks,
