Hi Ben, Try doing
SHOW ENGINES; and see what it says. It should say InnoDB is supported, if not then it hasn't compiled in.

But I can't get InnoDB tables respected. I have used the correct compilation flag (--with-innodb). SHOW VARIABLES; lists all the usual innodb variables. The innodb table space has been created in ~/var/ibdata1. But if I enter: CREATE TABLE a ( a int NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY ) ENGINE=InnoDB; SHOW CREATE TABLE a; CREATE TABLE `a` ( `a` int(10) NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY ) ENGINE=MyISAM As you can see, an InnoDB has become an MyISAM and will be stored in ~/var/test/a.* I am using the large table .cnf file. Everything else is much as default. Can anybody help me?
