MyISAM and InnoDB co-existance
hi, I need to have 2 DB in our development/production environment which require both InnoDB and MyISAM engines. This is bacasue, DB1 contains spatial/geom data which has to be on MyISAM engine and DB2 which needs transactional support has to be InnoDB. Now how to achieve this co-existance of both the MyISAM and InnoDB engines on the same server? regards shann ___ What is the largest island in the Mediterranean Sea? http:// -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe:http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]

As long as you enable InnoDB support (MyISAM is in by default) then just use the TYPE=InnoDB option on CREATE TABLE or select InnoDB when creating the table in your chosen GUI admin tool. Tables for which you don't select that will be MyISAM. -- Jasper Bryant-Greene Freelance web developer http://jasper.bryant-greene.name/ If you find my advice useful, please consider donating to a poor student!
