Hi All, I'm quite a novice with Mysql and more than a newbee with Linux but I managed to install Red Hat on an x86 and installed MySQl too. Now I need to have InnoDB support. I installed MySQl on my notebook too (winxp) and edited my.cnf to start innodb and set all the required params. I use my notebook for testing...
The problem is that using the same my.cnf (at least the same params for InnoDB) in the my.cnf on the linux box doe not start MySQL. The Service fails. whereas on the xp machine it does... very well! Any help GREATLY appreciated. I still cannot understand why it won't work. My only guess is that onnodb does not have the approprioate permissions to read/write or something like that. Below is my my.cnf [mysql] section InnoDB part innodb_data_file_path = ibdata1:10M:autoextend set-variable = innodb_buffer_pool_size=70M set-variable = innodb_additional_mem_pool_size=10M set-variable = innodb_log_file_size=20M set-variable = innodb_log_buffer_size=8M innodb_flush_log_at_trx_commit=1 Thanks for the help.
