Hi Gerald,

I am sure I don't have this in my my.cfg. I am using the supplied 'large table' my.cfg. The *only* innodb option I have is the command line parameter to mysqld:

--innodb

If anybody has any other options about how to get innodb working in 5.1.9, I'd be very interested!

Thanks for the advise,

Ben

Dear MySQL,

I've installed 5.1.9 from source on a SUSE 10 box. But I can't get InnoDB tables respected.

I have used the correct compilation flag (--with-innodb).
SHOW VARIABLES; lists all the usual innodb variables.
The innodb table space has been created in ~/var/ibdata1.

But if I enter:

CREATE TABLE a (
  a int NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY
) ENGINE=InnoDB;

SHOW CREATE TABLE a;

CREATE TABLE `a` (
  `a` int(10) NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY
) ENGINE=MyISAM

As you can see, an InnoDB has become an MyISAM and will be stored in ~/var/test/a.*

I am using the large table .cnf file. Everything else is much as default.

Can anybody help me?

Regards,

Ben

make sure you don't have
skip--innodb
in your my.cnf file.
