R help - Aug 2010 - R and MySQL

I installed MySQL 5.0.67 and R. I installed RMySQL and added env variable
MYSQL_HOME. But R still does not want to load the library. It says 
Error : .onLoad failed in loadNamespace() for 'RMySQL', details:
  call: NULL
  error: MYSQL_HOME was set but does not point to a directory
Error: package/namespace load failed for 'RMySQL'

Please help.

I am not sure whether you are working under windows. Hope the following 
message helps.
