The .tmp directory in the /usr/local/Hughes/msqldb directory must
be writable by the user who runs the msql daemon. This user is specified
in /usr/local/Hughes/msql.conf. For example if you have

mSQL_User = msql

in msql.conf, then the .tmp dir should look like this:

drwx------ 2 msql nogroup 1024 Oct 25 16:23 .tmp/

The .tmp dir is only needed for complex queries (joins) when
temporary tables must be built.

Bye,
Georg
