On my MacOS X box i can reproduce this even with 4.1.11 (4.1.11-standard-log) On my Linux machine it works fine given two strings but crashes if i only give one string or a string and a key number if no key file was specified (in which case it should just return NULL) (self compiled binaries, both 4.1.11 and 5.0 fails, 4.1.6 gives a wrong result, 4.1.5 returns NULL as expected)

Note that this function works only if MySQL has been configured with SSL support. See Section 5.7.7, “Using Secure Connections” in the MySQL Refernce Manual. I believe thie problem occurs because SSL support is missing. Will try to add warning or error message if these functions are used without the required functionality available.

Made a fix that will print warnings if the functions that des_encrypt or des_decrypt need from openssl is not available, wrong parameters are passed or if the function run out of resources. To make sure the server have been compiled with openssl support, use the query: mysql> show variables like "have_openssl"; Variable_name Value have_openssl YES There are also a number of command line options that need to be set. See: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/ssl-options.html The easiest way to test des_* functionality is to use mysql-test which will setup basic certificates for openssl to work. Please run mysql-test and make sure that the test case "func_encrypt" passes.
