Unable to start mysql server

Hi,

I've made a change in the mysql config, modifying the sort buffer size, as i had a message about it being to small. Problem is, the mysql server does not want to restart after that ! How can i comme back to default value ? I suppose there is a config file for that, but i didn't find it (my.ini form example)...

Can someone help me, i'm stuck bad !

Thanks JC

Howdy,

What happens when trying to start MySQL? Do you see an error of some sort, either on the command line or in the logs?

Hi Eric,

I had no error, just not starting but... Found it ! the file is /etc/mysql/my.cnf

a line had been added by my request : set-variable = sort_buffer=12M

i deleted the line and the server agreed to start !

Thanks JC
