I had this problem when I was using mudpit, and mudpit couldn't find
sid-msg.map and gen-msg.map. I haven't used barnyard, and I'm using FLoP
now, but maybe your problem has the same root.

Probably a timezone or daylight savings time thing; I think all events are
logged as UTC (i.e. GMT+0). Are you in western Europe, by chance?

Did you run create_acid_tbls_mysql.sql from the ACID distribution?
