WampServer

Hello, I don't find InnoDB as engine installed by default with the software in the new version. I stil try to activate it through configuration files but it don't work and I have found any tutorial on internet. Why unactivate it? Software like mediawiki use it by default and I for example need it for get back some backup. Thanks

there is lots of engines...

we can only choose one by default.. and MyISAM is better for general use

anyway in phpmyadmin,,, when creating the database - just change the engine for that database

But the innoDB isn't available at all, even when I import a innodb base. Nowhere I can get it

+I see no InnoDB displayed when I cluck on engines tab on phpmyadmin

in the my.ini comment out

skip-innodb

like

#skip-innodb

I have only 3 skip line

skip-locking
skip-networking (commented)
and
skip-federated

my whole my.ini (from a fresh install) if it can help...

# Replication Slave (comment out master section to use this)
#
# To configure this host as a replication slave, you can choose between
# two methods :
#
# 1) Use the CHANGE MASTER TO command (fully described in our manual) -
# the syntax is:
#
# CHANGE MASTER TO MASTER_HOST=<host>, MASTER_PORT=<port>,
# MASTER_USER=<user>, MASTER_PASSWORD=<password> ;
#
# where you replace <host>, <user>, <password> by quoted strings and
# <port> by the master's port number (3306 by default).
#
# Example:
#
# CHANGE MASTER TO MASTER_HOST='125.564.12.1', MASTER_PORT=3306,
# MASTER_USER='joe', MASTER_PASSWORD='secret';
#
# OR
#
# 2) Set the variables below. However, in case you choose this method, then
# start replication for the first time (even unsuccessfully, for example
# if you mistyped the password in master-password and the slave fails to
# connect), the slave will create a master.info file, and any later
# change in this file to the variables' values below will be ignored and
# overridden by the content of the master.info file, unless you shutdown
# the slave server, delete master.info and restart the slaver server.
# For that reason, you may want to leave the lines below untouched
# (commented) and instead use CHANGE MASTER TO (see above)
#
# required unique id between 2 and 2^32 - 1
# (and different from the master)
# defaults to 2 if master-host is set
# but will not function as a slave if omitted
#server-id = 2
#
# The replication master for this slave - required
#master-host = <hostname>
#
# The username the slave will use for authentication when connecting
# to the master - required
#master-user = <username>
#
# The password the slave will authenticate with when connecting to
# the master - required
#master-password = <password>
#
# The port the master is listening on.
# optional - defaults to 3306

not work... I have try many different ways (for example change configuration file to load innodb focused my.ini), but without success... Why isn't innoDB setup and on by default? I hadn't problems with previous versions, guess will downgrade... Thanks anyway.

Mysql is set this way...

up until 2 versions ago INNODB was default

6 versions before that MyISAM was always default and now they are back to that again

Either way INNODB has always been avaible on the engine list in any version i have seen , including all versions of wamp

You also need to add

# Table type which is used by default when creating new tables, if not
# specified differently during the CREATE TABLE statement.
default_table_type = INNODB

under the [wampmysqld] section
