MYSQL 5 and error: Unable to perform the SQL queries needed to install this program.

This error occurs with some versions of MYSQL 5:  Error: Unable to perform the SQL queries needed to install this program. Please make sure your MySQL account has the proper GRANT privileges: SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, DROP, ALTER, and CREATE, even when proper user permissions have been granted.

In order to successfully install EE, you will need to take MYSQL out of STRICT_TRANS_TABLES mode.  See the MYSQL manual for more information on how to do this.
