Ah.
Your using an ancient version.

That's ok of course, but I can't recall what I did 'yesterday'. And before yesterday, I was using 23.05, and before that 23.01 and before that ... 22.0x and before that 2.6.0.
2.7.0 isn't ok for you ?

I suggest you use the use the "forum search", as I'm pretty sure some one has writing about mysql in the past.

Double check the PHP version pfSense 2.6.0 uses.
