This problem is SOLVED !!!

NO more seg faults.

I had installed a very recent release of mysql (this was in an attempt 
to get over the early problems I had).

Now it appears when i ran my script it went to the mysql bin directory 
found and used THE libmysql.dll that was found there! no the version I 
had in ruby187\lib (also tried the DLL in the ruby187\bin but with no 
luck)

I've now removed the server from the system (low disk space biggest 
reason) moved the DLL back to ruby187\bin and it still works (failed 
with it in ruby187\lib).


regards,

Dave.
