Steve, - Original Message - From: Steve [EMAIL PROTECTED] Newsgroups: mailing.database.mysql Sent: Thursday, July 10, 2003 11:24 PM Subject: Re: innodb file won't shrink I found the following thread: http://groups.google.com/groups?threadm=9dpadc%2412ag%241%40FreeBSD.csie.NCTU.edu.tw That was from 2001 and talks about the potential for INNODB tools... does anyone know if any work has been made on those? I just can't believe that there's no real way for me to make this file smaller when the space is no longer needed/used... the suggested - dump the database and then recreate it just won't since I have a 34+GB db and no more space on my drive? Anyone? Please! sorry, it is not possible to shrink the InnoDB tablespace without recreating it. You may try gzip or some other tool to compress the table dumps if they would not otherwise fit on your disk. On September 15th, 2003 you will be able to put every InnoDB table into its own file.
