(the current version is 3.23.52) i may be wrong but i guess you shouldn't need mysqlmax... all you need is to specify that you want innodb at the compile time. For this, you should get the source and not the binaries.... when you untar your mysql tar.gz (by the way, why not using the last one 3.23.52 ?), you'll find a file called INSTALL-SOURCE in which you'll read : * If you want to configure `mysqld' with some extra features that are NOT in the standard binary distributions. Here is a list of the most common extra options that you may want to use: * `--with-berkeley-db' * `--with-innodb' * `--with-raid' * `--with-libwrap' * `--with-named-z-lib (This is done for some of the binaries)' * `--with-debug[=full]' Have fun ;-)) Stephane --------------------------------------------------------------------- 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?
