That got it.  I really appreciate the quick response and willingness to push out the fix.  Thanks!

I've just done another clone and recompile from the same source.   I've using the command git clone https://github.com/mangostwo/server.git serverTwo --recursive --depth=1

The readme.md file even references WotLK. 

Scanned the log the easybuild app created for "error" and "unab" etc but didn't see anything odd.   Same issue, still.  Thank you for your response!

Long story short, I had MangosThree (the cata version) running for a short time but dumped it in favor of WotLK.  At this point, I've cloned and compiled the mangosTwo  a couple times, wiped the mysql databases, uninstalled and reinstalled mysql, and still no luck.  Per the log, everything in the Rel21 folder updates successfully and no errors are noted.  I can't find any other database updates to download/install on the github site. 

Google and this site's search engine haven't turned up anything for me.  I'm starting to wonder if there's a remnant of the mangosthree install that's somehow impacting this.  Thanks in advance for any advice!
