I found that MySQL would crash after a few days with InnoDB errors in the mysql error log. The InnoDB settings were off in the my.cnf file, and my DBs/Tables were created as MyISAM.
And, according to most MySQL documentation/Google searches, MyISAM is supposed to be the default engine setting.
But running "show engines\G;" from a mysql prompt showed that InnoDB was set as the DEFAULT DB engine. I stopped mysql and added this to my my.cnf file and restarted mysql:
default-storage-engine = MyISAM
Running "show engines\G;" now shows MyISAM as the DEFAULT engine type in MySQL, and I'm monitoring to see if this has corrected the issue.
Anyone else seen this issue?
