I have MySql 4.1.12 installed on an XP box in C:\mysql.
I have the settings below in my C;\MySql\my.ini file:
I have the transaction-isolation set to READ-COMMITTED but the server seems
to ignore this.
When the server starts up the tx_isolation as reported by mysqladmin
extended-status is REPEATABLE-READ.
I can set it manually from the mysql command line and that works. The
tx_isolation is then reported as READ-COMMITTED.
Its almost as if the server is not reading the my.ini file.
How can I set the tx isolation level on startup?
Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks -Adam
