Thanks for testing Bruce! It's worth noting that 10.1.8 has been GA for about a month now. It indexing isn't working as expected, please file a bug -- MariaDB.org/jira
Hi Colin,
Yes sorry a typo it's actually version 10.1.7.
I like testing the beta versions as much as I can.
I was running 10.1.6 64 bit on windows 7 64 bit OS but could not connect to the 32 bit ODBC for the old CISAM DB so I installed 10.1.7 32 bit and so far I'm impressed Just can't get remote indexing to work but that could be because I don't have enough knowledge on the subject.
But I'll try what you have suggested and have a look at 10.1.8.
Regards,
Bruce Carlson

I think you’ve installed MariaDB Server 10.0.17, since there is no current release of MariaDB Server 10.1 that high yet. The latest release is MariaDB Server 10.1.8, and you can download/install that, and what you want should in theory work
see: https://mariadb.com/kb/en/mariadb/what-is-mariadb-101/
Hope that 10.1.8 solves your problems!
cheers,
