It could be the size of your InnoDB log files. Or something else which stops InnoDB running.

I once changed server and by mistake changed the size of the innodb_log_file_size. The result was that InnoDB could not start and instead dissabled its self. Therefore every table I created became MyISAM.

Check the error.log.  If this is the case it will say....

Also do a SHOW ENGINS, may show something...

Just a very quick guess but is innobd engine running ?

SHOW STATUS like '%inno%'

Output shown below. I've just finished importing the backup file again (into a different DB) and it's ignored the engine=innodb on each create table and has used MyISAM instead. Trying to alter a table yields the following...

mysql> alter table users engine=InnoDB;
Query OK, 853097 rows affected, 1 warning (1 min 35.71 sec)
