So on step three this pops up:
Installation Note
MySQL client and server versions 4.1.0 or higher and MyISAM table support are required for Roster.
You are running
• server version - 4.0.25-standard
• client version - 4.0.25
MySQL versions less than 4.1.0 may not work and are not supported.
Versions less than 4.1.0 may have unexpected issues, and we will not provide support for these installations.
My friend who runs my hosting in her business was thinking of changing hosting companies. In the mean time does this mean the hosting company needs to upgrade it's mysql for things to work? All I get is a bunch of errors using roster now. Is there any realistic possibility of saying, "Guys, upgrade your mysql," and they'll do it?
When I go to admin.php I get: note the bold text I changed for security.

I'm assuming that error is due to the old mysql version being run? This occurred after I updated the character lua. BTW, total noob at this. Was just looking up mysql on wikipedia
BTW, you guys rock! I used an older version of roster for awhile and recently upgraded with this new host. The fact you answer these support posts rocks!
