I have often run across this, the problem is that the files in 
dbconf/mysql don't match entirely the txt file in products/  make sure 
that for every column in the txt files there is a corresponding column 
definition in the dbconf/mysql files.

If needed, I have working ones for Postgres, and Mysql.  I'd like to 
donate them to Interchange, I just need to know where to send them, they 
may not be optimized (I have most everything set as txt) but they work.
