MySQL 4.0.20: Are the .....cnf examples gone?

Post by WaldoMonster »

I always used my-medium.cnf as a basis.
But I can't find them anymore in MySQL 4.0.20 for Windows.

Are they gone, or is there some new configuration file?

Yes, they appear to be gone/missing within the Windows source and binary distributions.

They are still there in the linux x86 and ppc binary distibutions, so unclear if this omission is intentional or not.

You can also specify options on win32 boxes with the my.ini file.

Yes, it is possible to rename the hole ......cnf to my.ini and place it in the windows directory.
