Hi Talbot, Thanks for the detailed problem description. Can you provide the data for the tables involved in the query to ensure that logical links are set correctly?

Talbot, Thanks for sending the table data. I created the test project and found a few issues there. Your LINQ query is referencing objects not mentioned anywhere, so I did some guesswork to avoid the compiler errors: 1. What is "s" in Where(s => results.Contains(s.ID))? I guessed it is a Song: Song s = bmnce.Songs.First(); 2. What is "results"? It can be literally anything, so I did not come with any guess. Also, I run the offending query in the workbench and none of columns were BLOB type. This could be the server problem on your side since the actual issue is related to BLOB instead of INT in the results. I used MySQL Server 5.5.19.

The server version may be the major difference. I am upgrading one of my slaves to 5.5.19 and then I'll run the test query. If I do not get the BLOB results then I think we've found our issue. I will let you know.

I upgraded our slave to 5.5.19 and the data no longer returns as BLOB. Would you like to consider this resolved, or should the connector handle this case more gracefully?

Which version of MySQL Server returned BLOB columns? I tested with 5.1.60 and it was fine as well.

5.0.77. This was the version recommended by Rackspace as the most stable version (2 years ago, and they do not apply updates unless asked).

Talbot, thanks for your help and interest in MySQL. MySQL Server Version 5.0 is not considered high-demand, so the bug is closed.

In case anyone else encouters this, I do want to confirm that after upgrading our servers to 5.5.19 I no longer experience this bug.
