If you want to support InnoDB you should set up startup InnoDB option:
      http://www.mysql.com/doc/I/n/InnoDB_start.html

and then run mysqld-max or mysqld-max-nt. You can check if you have
sopport fo InnoDB using command:
        SHOW VARIABLES LIKE "have%";
If InnoDB is supported, the value of variable "have_innodb" must be
'YES'.
