Hi!

InnoDB is a MySQL table type which provides to MySQL transactions, row level
locking, foreign key constraints, and a non-free hot backup tool.

InnoDB is included in all MySQL-4.0 downloads and MySQL-Max-3.23 downloads.
You can download them from http://www.mysql.com.

MySQL AB decided to release 4.0.6 quickly to fix recently discovered
security issues in MySQL-4.0.5. For InnoDB, 4.0.6 is a bugfix release which
corrects version 4.0.5 major bugs in AUTO_INCREMENT and REPLACE, INSERT INTO
... SELECT ..., and CREATE TABLE ... SELECT ... .

Full changelog:

* Since innodb_log_arch_dir has no relevance under MySQL, there is no need
to specify it any more in my.cnf.

* LOAD DATA INFILE in AUTOCOMMIT=1 mode no longer does implicit commits for
each 1 MB of written binlog.

* Fixed a bug introduced in 4.0.4: LOCK TABLES ... READ LOCAL should not set
row locks on the rows read. This caused deadlocks and lock wait timeouts in
mysqldump.

* Fixed two bugs introduced in 4.0.4: in AUTO_INCREMENT, REPLACE could cause
the counter to be left 1 too low. A deadlock or a lock wait timeout could
cause the same problem.

* Fixed a bug: TRUNCATE on a TEMPORARY table crashed InnoDB.

* Fixed a bug introduced in 4.0.5: if binlogging was not switched on, SQL
commands INSERT INTO ... SELECT ... or CREATE TABLE ... SELECT ... could
cause InnoDB to hang on a semaphore created in btr0sea.c, line 128.

* Fixed a bug: in replication issuing SLAVE STOP in the middle of a
multi-statement transaction could cause that SLAVE START would only perform
part of the transaction. A similar error could occur if the slave crashed
and was restarted.
