Hi all, I was a member of wdvl some time back but have not been using it for
more than a year and a half now. Now i'm back and suppose I should introduce
myself first for those who do not know me and for those who forgot me.

My name's paul and i'm in web dev for about 4 years now and i'd be happy to
help/tip whenever the possibility arises.

Blink to casey, cheryl d. wise, greg cymbala, howard and the rest who helped
me a lot before... I dunno if all of them are still here.

anyway, here's my first prob...

I installed mysql 4 on red hat. fine. done. working.
I need innodb to be installed too. here things get trickier. the manual says
i should edit my /etc/my.cnf file and add some parameters to [mysqld]
I did that, i even copied/pasted the code they throw as a sample to avoid
typos and still mysql fails.

Normal way to proceed would be
1 edit the file
2 add the params
3 stop mysql and start it again.

but when I stop mysql, service reports [ FAILED ]

any clues?

Thanks a lot and... happy to be back.

Paul
