Hello,

I am not sure exactly what to put in my my.ini file. I created one and put in the correct directory. Inside my.ini file is the folowing: innodb_data_file_path = /mysql/data/ibdata1:20M

However, when I use the command: C:\mysql\bin> mysqld-max --standalone

I get the following error:

Cannot initialize InnoDB as 'innodb_data_file_path' is not set. If you do not want to use transactional InnoDB tables, add a line skip-innodb to the [mysqld] section of init parameters in your my.cnf or my.ini. If you want to use InnoDB tables, add for example, innodb_data_file_path = /mysql/data/ibdata1:20M But to get good performance you should adjust for your hardware the InnoDB startup options listed in section 7.6 at http://www.mysql.com/doc/

How do I fix this?

Thank you for your help.
