Hi,

I am trying to set the mysql variable lower_case_table_names to 2, however I am having serious difficulties!

I understand I need to do this at the command line but I have tried the following (with many variations) without success:

C:\mysql\bin>mysqld --SET-lower_case_table_names=2;

Ideally I would like this to be permanet so I have also investagated editing the my.cnf file:

<snip>
4.1.2 `my.cnf' Option Files

MySQL can, since Version 3.22, read default startup options for the server and for clients from option files.

On Windows, MySQL reads default options from the following files:

Filename  Purpose
windows-directory\my.ini  Global options
C:\my.cnf  Global options

windows-directory is the location of your Windows directory.
</snip>

But neither of these files exist on my system. I would be most grateful if someone could show me how to run the command line option or edit the necessary file to make these changes permanent.

Thanks for your help
