Standart distributibe doesn't support InnoDB table type. You should install MySQL-max. You must also specify InnoDB options in my.cnf file in order to use that table handler. You can read about InnoDB configuration parameters in the manual: http://www.mysql.com/doc/I/n/InnoDB_start.html "SHOW VARIABLES LIKE 'have%'" helps you to check if InnoDB is supported. You can use different table types at the same time in one database. You may not to convert MYISAM tables to InnoDB, but if you want to convert you can read notes about it at: http://www.mysql.com/doc/S/E/SEC444.html SC> thanks, SC> Sanjay Chigurupati -- For technical support contracts, goto https://order.mysql.com/ This email is sponsored by Ensita.net http://www.ensita.net/ __ ___ ___ ____ __ / |/ /_ __/ __/ __ \/ / Victoria Reznichenko / /|_/ / // /\ \/ /_/ / /__ [EMAIL PROTECTED] /_/ /_/\_, /___/\___\_\___/ MySQL AB / Ensita.net <___/ www.mysql.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
