Hello, I've been using MySQL for over 2 years in my Bacula GPL project (network backup program). To simplify installation for users, I would like to offer them the possibility of using the embedded MySQL server. However, I'm having a few problems, and maybe you can help me:
1. There seems to be no way to build a mysql with the embedded server. If there is please tell me how. This is important because mysql is used to create the databases. 2. The embedded server apparently doesn't support the default table type, which I imagine is MYISAM or ISAM. From the documentation, it seems it only supports InnoDB database. However, I'm using BLOBs and TINYBLOBs, and InnoDB doesn't accept these. Is there a way that I can make the embedded server support the standard tables, or is there someone who could answer a few questions to help me convert to the appropriate InnoDB types? 3. How can I get some help making sure my tables are optimal? I'm willing to pay the $250 (it comes out of my personal pocket) for the basic service contract, but I'm not sure it will cover this kind of help. Thank you.
