Incorrect definition of table mysql.proc:

[Sandy Spence]

Hi forum,

We have a new installation of version 5.5.16, the system has not been upgraded from a previous version. We were getting this error:

[ERROR] Incorrect definition of table mysql.proc: expected column 'comment' at position 15 to have type text, found type char(64).

I searched high and low for an answer to why and all the feedback I read was related to an upgrade. I eventually ran the following sql statement

alter table proc change comment comment text

and this appears to have fixed/stopped the error.

My question is: are there any knock on implications should I have run something else to fix the error.

Any help/advice would be appreciated.

Regards,

Sandy Spence
