Description:
I am trying to connect to the database from another machine on the network. The application logon is taking 90 seconds. I started to debug it and found that there are numerous error messages in the err files.

I have several hundred of these in the Servername.err file
InnoDB: Warning: an inconsistent page in the doublewrite buffer
InnoDB: space id 3057247106 page number 0, 0'th page in dblwr buf.
InnoDB: Warning: an inconsistent page in the doublewrite buffer
InnoDB: space id 3380526221 page number 1, 1'th page in dblwr buf.
InnoDB: Warning: an inconsistent page in the doublewrite buffer
InnoDB: space id 1314137728 page number 2, 2'th page in dblwr buf.
InnoDB: Warning: an inconsistent page in the doublewrite buffer

In the mysql.err file I have this

031003 12:32:52  mysql.user table is not updated to new password format;  Disabling new password usage until mysql_fix_privilege_tables is run
MySql: ready for connections.
Version: '4.1.0-alpha-max-nt'  socket: ''  port: 3306
031004 19:09:09  MySql: Normal shutdown

How to repeat:
All I did was try to access information in the database from another machine using the ODBC 3.51

Hi!

You have probably run 4.0.14 or 4.0.15 and then 'downgraded' to an earlier release 4.1.0-alpha.

"
MySQL/InnoDB-4.0.14, July 21, 2003 
...
Fixed the checksum calculation of data pages. Previously most OS file system corruption went unnoticed. Note that if you downgrade from version >= 4.0.14 to an earlier version < 4.0.14 then in the first startup(s) InnoDB will print warnings: 
InnoDB: Warning: an inconsistent page in the doublewrite buffer
InnoDB: space id 2552202359 page number 8245, 127'th page in dblwr buf.

but that is not dangerous and can be ignored. 
"

You can ignore the warnings, no problem.

Best regards,

Heikki
