 * Hi – just upgraded to 3.2.1 and got a message that it only supports MySQL version
   5.0 or higher.
 * Called hosting company (go daddy) and upgraded database from 4.2.something to
   5.x
 * It’s been four hours – and i’m still getting this error message when I try to
   login
 * **You cannot update because WordPress 3.2.1 requires MySQL version 5.0 or higher.
   You are running version 4.1.24**
 * Is there something I need to update in the config file or something like that?
