I followed the procedures, when I reached “make install” it gave error
saying something like Keyword should be NOT NULL in tools/initdb line 160:
Create TABLE KeywordSelects (
…
Keyword integer NULL,
…
INDEX (Keyword),
…
)
Please help!

This error happens when you are using an old and buggy version of mysql.
Update to a current version and it should work.

Thanks! I installed the latest mysql and resolved the problem. (But
I’m tackling other problems still, see my other posts…)
