HI,,here's what mine says:
[mysqld]
innodb_data_home_dir = c:/mysql/data
innodb_data_file_path = ibdata1.db:10M
if you can find the proper section in the manuals you will see that you MUST
specify a file size for that database file: innodb_data_file_path =
ibdata1.db:10M
I set mine to to: 10M
the docs say 10M is the minimum..
READ the Innodb tables section in Mysql manual very carefully..and enjoy..
Ken
