Updated MySQL 5.1.35-GIS snapshot binaries are now available

Posted by Lenz Grimmer on

We've now published a new set of binary packages including the extended GIS functionality from the mysql-5.1-wl1326 source tree.

This release is based on the MySQL 5.1.35 code base and fixes the bugs mentioned below. It includes some improvements to the GIS functionality as well, so please use these packages for future testing of the MySQL GIS functionality.

The following GIS-related bugs were fixed in this version:

  • Bug#31753: Buffer/area functions only return first row of set
  • Bug#32032: Contains() does not work on MultiPolygons, may force a disconnect and/or result in extremely long query times.
  • Bug#32100: contains, intersects functions never return. Query disconnects or times out.
  • Bug#33035: Intersection function returns 'Function doesn't exist' error
  • Bug#40874: Buffer function doesn't work with LINESTRING
  • Bug#41481: Buffer function never returns, cpu 100%, system locks up
  • Bug#43493: union function returns polygon not multipolygon for non-intersecting polygons
  • Bug#44753: nan error in union function

I'd like to explicitly thank John Powell for his extensive testing and bug reporting so far, he helped us quite a lot to improve the quality of the GIS code.

Please help us by by testing this new release and reporting bugs at our public bug database. For convenience, please tag your Bug reports with "gis" and make sure to put them in the "Server: GIS" category!
